Over the last 25 years, British society has changed a great deal. In some ways, however, very little has changed. Ideas about social class whether a person is “working-class” or “middle-class” are one area in which changes have been extremely slow.
In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people, such as teachers and doctors. As a result of this and also of the fact that workers’ jobs were generally much less secure, distinct differences in life-styles and attitudes came into existence. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then give them to his wife, leaving a little for drinking or betting.
The type of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He was and still is likely to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house to provide him and his family with security. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity (or the education and training) to make such long-term plans.
Nowadays, much has changed. In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much. Social security and laws have made it less necessary than before to worry about “tomorrow”. Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority(自卑感)they had in the past. In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position.
The changes in both life-styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen among younger people. They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes. They spend their money enjoying themselves, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary. There seems to be much less difference than in precious generations. Nevertheless, we still have a wide gap between the well-paid and the low-paid. As long as this gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new problems will appear between different groups.
1.Which of the following is seen as the main cause of class differences in the past?
A.Life style and occupation. |
B.Attitude and income. |
C.Income and job security. |
D.Job security and hobbies. |
2. The writer seems to suggest that _______.
A.the description of middle-class ways of spending money is quite real |
B.working-class ways of spending the weekend remain the same |
C.working-class drinking habits differ from the past |
D.middle-class attitudes towards their positions have changed greatly |
3. According to the passage, what was the typical feature of the middle–class in the past?
A.They had to save money for security. |
B.They couldn’t make long-term plans. |
C.They could make as much money as they do now. |
D.They didn’t have the sense of inferiority. |
4. Working-class people's sense of security has increased as a result of all the following factors EXCEPT that _______.
A.they are provided with social security |
B.they can get much income |
C.better jobs are available for all of them |
D.the government offers legal protection |
5.Which of the following statements is incorrect?
A.Changes are slowly taking place in all aspects of the British society. |
B.The difference between working-class and middle-class young people is narrowing. |
C.The gap in income between the two classes will still remain. |

I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor-and go to court(法庭).
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I'd have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.
My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. he knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss(解雇)him. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time, … and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship honour or professional morality(职业道德). Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.
1.The author's roommate offered to help him because_____.
A. he felt sorry for the author
B. he thought it was a chance to make some money
C. he knew the doctor was a very good one
D. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer
2. A good doctor is essential for the author to____.
A. be properly treated
B. talk with the person responsible for the accident
C. recover before he leaves America
D. eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury
3.The word " charge " in the passage means____.
A. be responsible B. accuse C. ask as a price D. claim
4.Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very___.
A. friendly B. greedy C. professional D. busy
5.What conclusion can you draw from this story?
A. Going to court is something every common in America
B. One must be very careful while driving a car
C. There are more bad sides in America than good sides
D. Money is more important than other things in the US
