    People with disabilities make up a large part of the population. It is estimated（估计） that over 35 million Americans have physical, mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities are “developmental", i.e., they occur before the individual's twenty-second birthday, often from genetic conditions, and are severe enough to affect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, communication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities are considered “adventitious", i.e., accidental or caused by outside forces.
    Prior to the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was unavailable. Advancements in medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expect to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment. Unfortunately, these basics are often not available. Civil liberties such as the right to vote, marry, get an education, and gain employment have historically been denied on the basis of disability.
    In recent decades, the disability rights movement has been organized to fight against these infringements（违反；侵犯）of civil rights. Congress responded by passing major legislation recognizing people with disabilities as a protected class under civil rights statutes.
    Still today, people with disabilities must fight to live their lives independently. It is estimated that more than half of qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed, and a majority of those who do work are underemployed. About two-thirds live at or below the official poverty level.
    Significant barriers, especially in transportation and public awareness, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer prohibited by law from marrying, a person with no access to transportation is effectively excluded from community and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.
    Only when public attitudes advance as far as laws have will disabled people be fully able to take their rightful place in society.
    小题1:A “developmental" disability ______.
    A．develops very slowly over time
    B．is caused by forces
    C．occurs in youth and affects development
    D．is getting more and more severe
    小题2:Most disabled people used to die early because ______.
    A．disabilities destroyed major bodily functions
    B．they were not very well looked after
    C．medical techniques were not available
    D．they were too poor to get proper treatment
    小题3:In the author's opinion, to enable the disabled people to take their rightful place in society, ______.
    A．more laws should be passed
    B．public attitudes should be changed
    C．government should provide more aids
    D．more public facilities should be set up
    小题4:Which of the following cannot be inferred from the passage ?
    A．Many disabled people may remain single for their whole life.
    B．The public tends to look down upon the disabled people.
    C．The disabled people feel inferior to those surrounding them.
    D．Discriminatory laws prevent the disabled from mixing with others.
    小题5:The best title for this passage might be ______.
    A．Handicaps（障碍）of People with Disabilities
    B．The physical difficulties of the Disabled
    C．The Causes for Disabilities
    D．Medical Treatments for Disabilities

    In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn't much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.
    But in the big cities of Europe like London or Paris, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They don't want to live in the cities any more. They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.
    So they move out of the cities. Some don't go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields. There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.
    Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don't make so much money and there isn't much work to do. People in the countryside are very different and aren't always very friendly.
    As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. “It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights,” they say.
    小题1:Which is NOT the reason for people moving to the cities in China?
    A．The countryside is much poorer than me city.
    B．People in the countryside have nothing to eat.
    C．People in the countryside don't have much work to do there.
    D．Services in cities are usually much better than those in the countryside.
    小题2:Why do some rich families in Europe move to the countryside?
    A．Because they will find good jobs.
    B．Because they are tired of living in the city.
    C．Because they can make more money there.
    D．Because they like feeding sheep and cows in the green fields.
    小题3:After moving to the countryside, some people in Europe feel unhappy because      .
    A．they can’t make much money
    B．there isn’t much work for them to do in the countryside
    C．some people in the countryside aren’t always very friendly to them
    D．A, B and C
    小题4:The underlined sentence in the last paragraph shows      .
    A．they are happy to move back to the city
    B．they will miss their friends in the countryside
    C．they still want to move to the countryside
    D．they are tired of the noise and the crowded streets in the city
    小题5:The best title of this passage may be “    ”.

    Until the 1980s, the American homeless population comprised (组成) mainly older males. Today, homelessness strikes much younger part of society. In fact, a 25-city survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors in 1987 found that families with children make up the fastest growing part of the homeless population. Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient(变化无常的) and frequently frightened student population creates additional problems — both legal and educational — for already overburdened（负担过重的）urban school administrators and teachers.
    Estimates of the number of homeless Americans range from 350,000 to three million. Likewise, estimates of the number of homeless school children vary radically. A U.S. Department of Education report, based on state estimates, states that there are 220,000 homeless school-age children, about a third of whom do not attend school on a regular basis, But the National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that there are at least two times as many homeless children, and that less than half of them attend school regularly.
    One part of the homeless population that is particularly difficult to count consists of the “throwaway” youths who have been cast of their homes. The Elementary School Center in New York City estimates that there are 1.5 million of them, many of whom are not counted as children because they do not stay in family shelters and tend to live by themselves on the streets.
    Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children. The educational provisions of the McKinney Act are based on the belief that all homeless children have the right to a free, appropriate education.
    小题1: It is implied in the first paragraph that ____.
    A．the writer himself is homeless, even in his eighties
    B．many older homeless residents are going on strike in 25 cities
    C．there is a serious shortage of academic facilities (设施).
    D．homeless children are denied the opportunity of receiving free education
    小题2: The National Coalition for the homeless believes that the number of homeless children is _____.
    A．350,000
    B．1,500,000
    C．440,000
    D．110,000
    小题3:  One part of the homeless population is difficult to estimate. The reason might well be ____.
    A．the homeless children are too young to be counted as children
    B．the homeless population is growing rapidly
    C．the homeless children usually stay outside school
    D．some homeless children are deserted by their families
    小题4: The McKinney Act is mentioned in this passage in order to show that ___.
    A．the educational problems of homeless children are being recognized
    B．the estimates on homeless children are hard to determine
    C．the address of grade-school children should be located
    D．all homeless people are entitled（有权利的） to free education
    小题5: The passage mainly deals with ____.
    A．the legal problems of the homeless children
    B．the educational problems of homeless children
    C．the social status of older males
    D．estimates on the homeless population

    Age has its special advantage in America. And one of the more impressive of them is the senior citizen discount. Anyone who has reached a certain age—in some cases as low as 55－is automatically entitled to plenty of price reductions at nearly every level of commercial life. Eligibility（资格）is determined not by one’s need but by the date on one’s birth certificate. Practically the discounts have become a routine part of many businesses-as common as color televisions in motel rooms and free coffee on airliners.
    People with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them；yet, millions of Americans above age 60 are healthy and solvent（有支付能力的）. Businesses that would never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to older Americans. The practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy” are synonymous（同义的）. Perhaps that once was true, but today, to be sure, there is economic variety within the elderly, and most of them aren’t poor.
    It is impossible to determine the effect of the discounts on individual companies. For many firms, they are a stimulus to income. But in other cases the discounts are given at the expense, directly or indirectly, of younger Americans. Moreover, they directly annoy some politicians and scholars who consider it a coming conflict between the generations.
    Generational tensions are being fueled by continuing debate over Social Security benefits, which mostly involves a transfer of resources from the young to the old. Employment is another point. Supported by laws and court decisions, more and more older Americans are refusing the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the job-thereby lessening employment and promotion opportunities for younger workers. Far from a kind of charity they once were, senior citizen discounts have become a powerful economic privilege（特权）to a group with millions of members who don’t need them.
    It no longer makes sense to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deserve priority over those of others. Senior citizen discounts only enrich the myth that older people can’t take care of themselves and need special treatment；and they threaten the creation of a new myth, that the elderly ale ungrateful and taking for themselves at the expense of children and other age groups. Senior citizen discounts are the heart of the very thing older Americans are fighting against－discrimination by age.
    小题1:We learn from the first paragraph that   .
    A．offering senior citizen discounts has become routine commercial practice
    B．senior citizen discounts have enabled many old people to live a good life
    C．giving senior citizen discounts has increased the market for the elderly
    D．senior citizens have to show their birth certificates to get a discount
    小题2:The reason to give the senior citizen discount is that   .
    A．the elderly need humane help from society
    B．businesses should do something for society in return
    C．old people are entitled to special treatment for their contribution to society
    D．the senior discounts can make up for the lack of the Social Security system
    小题3:What does the author think of the Social Security system?
    A．It encourages elderly people to retire in time.
    B．It opens up broad career chances for young people.
    C．It benefits the old at the expense of the young.
    D．It should be strengthened by laws and court decisions.
    小题4:What does the author mainly argue in the passage?
    A．Senior citizens should fight hard against age discrimination.
    B．The elderly are selfish and taking senior discounts for granted.
    C．Senior citizen discounts may well be a type of age discrimination.
    D．Discount should be given to the economic needs of senior citizens.

    A recent Living Social survey showed that Americans may live up to their poor reputation while travelling abroad. But what’s more surprising is that many of those surveyed self-identified themselves as ‘ugly’ Americans and the world’s worst travelers.
    Those in the U.S. ranked themselves as the worst travellers by a shocking 20 per cent, followed by 15 per cent saying the Chinese were the most substandard tourists.
    Americans topped the list as being the worst-behaved travelers in a survey of 5,600 respondents, 4,000 of whom were Americans. Other respondents were in Australia, Canada, Ireland and the United Kingdom. But even American respondents considered their compatriots(同胞) as the worst travelers from a list of 16 nationalities.
    Canadians and Australians also put Americans in the No. 1 spot. Irish respondents pointed to U.K. residents and U.K. respondents gave Germans the nod. On the other hand, 37% of Americans opted for "none of the above" in answer to the worst-tourists question, displaying more tolerance and open-mindedness than the other nationalities.
    Other survey questions had respondents admitting pilfering from hotels. Four in ten U.S. survey-takers said they’d stolen something – mostly towels (28%) and bathrobes (8%). Other popular pinched items included pillows, remote controls, Bibles and sheets.
    Not surprising is that Americans have less time off from work than other nationalities. Americans reported getting 16 days off, compared with 28 days for the Irish, 27 days for Australians, 23 days for U.K. workers; and 21 days for Canadians.
    In the travel mishaps department, the most common travel disaster reported by Americans was lost luggage on an airline (21%)； bad weather (21%)； and getting very lost (16%).
    As for places Americans most want to see, Disney World and Las Vegas made the top 10, but they weren't at the top of the heap. And New York didn't make the cut.
    小题1:What percentage of American respondents is in the survey?
    A．20 % B．15% C．71% D．37%
    小题2:The underlined word “pilfering” in Para. 5 most probably means ________.
    A．takingB．bringingC．stealingD．borrowing.
    小题3:According to the survey, what kind of things are most taken away by Americans?
    A．towels and pillows
    B．bathrobes and remote controls.
    C．towels and Bibles
    D．bathrobes and towels.
    小题4:What’s the best title of this passage?
    A．Chinese were announced as the world’s worst travellers.
    B．The global worst travellers were announced.
    C．Disney World is the best destination to Americans.
    D．European travellers were the best in the world

    阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
    When we walk through the city, we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. We don’t stop, we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead, and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.
    We make use of stereotypes as convenient ways to make quick judgments about situations and people around us. They may not always be accurate, and they can often be dangerously wrong, but they are used regularly.
    The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience. By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit our communication. We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.
    In the city, styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self-presentation. Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can be easily recognized. It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes, and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly, and lets other tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.
    In England, where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions, clothes, hairstyles, people’s pronunciation and the manner of speaking are all clues to our social group. Class distinctions tend to be relatively fixed, although in the city where greater variety is permitted, they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.
    小题1:People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because _________________.
    A．they do not wish to talk to other people
    B．everyone else is expressionless
    C．the environment is already familiar to them
    D．there is too much information to get
    小题2:According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they _________.
    A．are likely to lead us into dangerous situations
    B．may make us miss some pleasant experience
    C．can rarely be relied on
    D．make us mentally lazy
    小题3:From the passage we may conclude that _____________.
    A．stereotypes can help to understand people fully
    B．people are becoming more interested in fashion
    C．dressing can send messages about individuals
    D．stereotypes can do more harm than good to people
    小题4:It would appear that in England, a person’s class ____________.
    A．might be less important in making friends in a city
    B．is mainly determined by his pronunciation
    C．plays less of a role than it did in the past
    D．is something that can be changed easily

    Many reasons can explain why football is so popular. All around the world, millions play the sport and many more like to watch it. Some would say that the simplicity of the game is the main reason for its popularity, but that can’t be true as, this way, marathons or races would be the most popular sports in the world. In fact, the most popular sport in the world is football.
    The main reason for the popularity of any sport is the room for creativity inside the sport. Football has plenty of room for creativity as it enables players to use their bodies in unique ways to get hold of the ball and score while at the same time keeping the other team from scoring. In addition to this, the rules ensure that the game is clean and fair, thus encouraging new players to play it.
    Another reason is that this game doesn’t require expensive equipment. All the kids in poor developing countries like playing it as all they need to play it is a ball and an empty playground, and that would ensure a quality time for a group of kids who want to enjoy their time. The Federation International de Football Association (FTFA) knows this fact and is always trying to keep the rules and regulations applicable for poorer countries.
    For fans of the sport, it is very entertaining to watch the skills and talents of the players in professional matches. The outcome of a match can easily change in the dying moments of a game. Some matches are even better than watching a thriller, because you really have no idea what the result of the match will be.
    小题1:From the first paragraph, we know that marathons and races _______.
    A．are sports that are as simple as football
    B．are sports that are simpler than football
    C．are sports that people like watching most
    D．are the most popular sports in the world
    小题2:We can learn from the text that _____.
    A．football is popular mainly because of its simplicity
    B．the rules of football make the game safe and simple
    C．football gives players room for creativity
    D．playing football can help poor kids earn money
    小题3:This fact in the third paragraph refers to ______.
    A．kids need balls and empty playground to play in
    B．the equipment in developing countries is very cheap
    C．kids in developing countries enjoy playing football
    D．kids in developing countries don’t keep football rules
