    About 90 percent of Chinese believe the polarization(分化) between the rich and poor is “serious” in China, according to a survey conducted by China Youth Daily. And more than 80 percent of the respondents(对象) surveyed said something must be done to narrow the expanding gap between the rich and poor, while 14.1 percent said it was necessary.
    The polarization has aroused wide concern among the public in recent years. The State Development and Reform Commission(国家发改委) said the Gini Coefficient had reached 0.47 for China, up from o.29 two decades ago. Usually, a country with a number above 0.4 is warned to pay attention to the income inequality problem.
    To find out the people’s view, the survey covered 10,250 respondents, between the ages of 20 and 30 with a college education and a monthly salary between 1,000 and 3,000 yuan. Surprisingly, most disagreed with the view of experts who claim the urban-rural difference is causing the widening gap. More than 70 percent of the respondents believed that “ the group of special interests” is the prime reason for the polarization, followed by “people in power” 68 percent, and “bosses” 50 percent.
    Another unexpected finding is that almost all agreed that a good educational background and knowledge were not the decisive factors in gaining wealth. About 95 percent said rich people are not necessarily those who are able to speak English or have a college education.
    Today in China, rich people , accounting for 10 percent of the population, control 45 percent of the total social fortune, and poor people, also 10 percent of the population, only control 1.5 percent, according to an investigation published by the National Bureau of Statistics last June.

    A．the unit used in advanced mathematics

    D．a measure of income inequality
    小题2: Experts hold the view that the main reason for the polarization is _____.
    A．the urban-rural differenceB．the group of special interests
    C．the people in powerD．the bosses
    小题3:Which of the following can show the correct proportion(比例) of the social fortune among population?

    小题4:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．Close the Gap between the Rich and Poor
    B．Surveys conducted by China Youth Daily
    C．Higher education, Higher pay
    D．Rich-Poor Divide Serious, Study Finds

    The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image (印象) of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.
    An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seen to be about their families,” said one member of the research team. “They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds: they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”
    So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.” My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”
    Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenager rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in out social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”
    小题1: What is the popular images of teenagers today?
    A．They worry about schoolB．They dislike living with their parents
    C．They have to be locked in to avoid troubles D．They quarrel a lot with other family members
    小题2:The study shows that teenagers don’t want to ___
    A．share family responsibilityB．cause trouble in their families
    C．go boating with their familyD．make family decisions
    小题3:Compared with parents of 30 years age, today’s parents___.
    A．go to clubs more often with their childrenB．are much stricter with their children
    C．care less about their children’s lifeD．give their children more freedom
    小题4: According to the author, teenage rebellion____.
    A．may be a false beliefB．is common nowadays
    C．existed only in the 1960sD．resulted from changes in families

    The use of the mobile Internet in Britain grew eight times as fast as the growth of the PC Internet, according to the latest study from research firm Nielsen Online. Of course, the actual number of Britons surfing the PC Internet is much higher. A recent report found that from April to September in 2008, the number of Britons using the mobile Internet increased by 25 percent, from 5.8 million to 7.3 million. However, the number of Britons surfing the PC Internet is 35.5 million, up only 3 percent. As expected, the report found that the mobile online audiences are younger than the PC-based users, with 25 percent of mobile Internet users aged 15-24 years old, compared to 16 percent for PC-based users. Also as expected, there are more people aged over 55 surfing the PC Internet (23 percent) than those on the mobile Internet (12 percent). This last figure —12 percent of those aged over 55 surfing the mobile Internet, however, surprised me because I had expected to be lower. Mobile audiences are interested in sites that can provide immediate information, or immediate access like BBC News, Google Search, Sky Sports, BBC Weather and G-mail. BBC News is visited by nearly one in four British mobile Internet users, or 1.7 million people. Three of the most popular sites, BBC Weather, Sky Sports and G-mail, actually have a greater reach on the mobile Internet than they do on the PC Internet. BBC Weather gets 21 percent of all mobile users with 17 percent on the PC-based Internet.
    44. According to the first paragraph, the majority of Britons are_______.
    A. surfing the mobile Internet
    B. surfing the PC Internet
    C. taking part in the research
    D. studying on the mobile Internet

    A. using personal computers
    B. surfing the mobile Internet
    C. repairing personal computers
    D. making personal computers
    46. According the report, which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A. Some people who are over 55 like to surf the PC Internet.
    B. BBC News is very popular with the mobile audience.
    C. BBC Weather gets more mobile users than PC-based users.
    D. Only young people like to use the mobile Internet.

    C
    There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less, so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to using horses, carriages and bicycles.
    In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas made from petroleum (石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn’t go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can’t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.
    Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make the electricity! Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines (涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.
    We are also able to get power from the ocean tides. We put turbines into the mouth of the river. Then the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and then it goes out, it turns them again.
    Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?
    49. When might people have to go back to using horses and carriages?
    A. When they are poor.                          B. When they run out of oil.
    C. When they need more exercise.           D. When there aren’t any big trees in the world.
    50. What did some people use to make gas in the Second World War?
    A. Water                   B. Coal                 C. Wood and plants              D. Tides
    51. How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?
    A. 2                         B. 5                     C. 4                            D. 3
    52. The passage is mainly about ________ . 
    A. how to run our cars                              B. what to do when oil runs out   
    C. different types of gas                         D. the ways to make electricity

    Why do people work? Of course, you may have asked yourself the same question as why you have to work. “Self-interest” in its broadest sense, including the interests of family and friends, is a basic motivation（动力）for work in all societies. But self-interest includes more than providing for living or getting wealth that people usually think. For example, a sense of duty, a feeling of competing, and a pleasure in working are other reasons for working. Studies show that most of Americans would continue to work even if they have had enough money to live comfortably.
    When people work, they gain a contributing place in society. The fact that what they receive pay for their work means that what they do is needed by other people and what they are doing is necessary to society. Work can also place people in the larger class of society and provide all kinds of identities (身份) for them. In the United States, it is a cruel public fact that to do nothing is to be nothing and to do little is to be little. Work is commonly seen as the measure of an individual (个人). 
    Some scientists have shown some of the ways that work has effect on our lives. Generally, people who always do their favorite work are more open to new ideas and easier to get along with others, and as parents they pass these characteristics on to their children. Our work then is an important social thing that makes us know who and what we are.
    64. Generally, people work for _____.
    A. self-interest      B. family       C. earning a living               D. the country
    65. In the passage, “what they receive pay for their work” means _____.
    A. that the work of the worker is recognized by society
    B. what they do is needed by other people
    C. that they are a necessary part of the social class
    D. That the workers are clever
    66. In the last paragraph, we can conclude that the author thinks ____.
    A. that work can make the worker rich
    B. that work can affect their lives
    C. that work can make the worker tired
    D. that work can make the worker know the world well
    67. The title of the passage is “______”.
    A. The Identity and the Work   B. The Work and the Society
    C. The Society and Individual   D. The Importance of Work
