Then, I realized that the thief now had my credit cards and ID card!∧收起答案仔细阅读5题Directions:Read the passage and answer the following questions.Many people often wonder about the terms "blue-collar crime" and "white-collar crime". What's the difference? Is one worse than the other? Are they committed by different kinds of people? What does crime have to do with the color of your shirt?First, it is helpful to understand that blue-collar workers are those people employed in jobs that require manual labor, and white-collar workers perform non-manual labor in an office setting. The terms can be dated back to the 19th century, when industrial workers and manual laborers were required to wear clothing suitable to the difficult work – which was typically a blue work shirt or blue coveralls. In contrast, professional workers in offices generally wore white dress shirts.Today, the primary distinctions between white-collar and blue-collar crime are the social class to which the suspect belongs and the type of crime committed. Blue-collar crimes are committed by individuals from lower social classes (ie, less privileged backgrounds with fewer professional and societal opportunities), and white-collar crimes, conversely, are committed by individuals from higher, more affluent social classes.The exact nature of the crime is also a defining factor of blue-collar versus white-collar crime. Blue-collar crimes tend to be relatively obvious (eg, vandalism, robbery, and shoplifting) or violent (eg, assault, arson, and murder) crimes that are committed out of desperation. White-collar crimes, however, are "quieter" crimes (eg, bribery, embezzlement, and computer crime) committed by people who have the means and opportunity to exploit professional situations.It is impossible to say that one type of crime is worse than the other, for both have serious and lasting effects for the victims. Blue-collar crime gets more consistent exposure in the media, so we usually hear more about it on a regular basis. However, even though we might not hear many news stories about white-collar crime, it still occurs every day. The increase in computer crime and rising instances of identify theft are testament to that.41)Which of the following would make the best title for this article?A. An Examination into Blue-Collar Crime.B. A History of Blue-Collar and White-Collar Workers.C. White-Collar Crime: A Victimless Crime.D. Blue-Collar Crime Versus White-Collar Crime: An Explanation.42)With which of the following statements would the author likely agree?A. Many white-collar criminals have good jobs.B. Identity theft is an example of blue-collar crime.C. Incidents of blue-collar crime are decreasing.D. All crime is equally bad for the victims.43)The writer suggests that _______.A. blue-collar crime is heavily covered by the news mediaB. white-collar crime is heavily covered by the news mediaC. crime is not heavily covered by the news mediaD. both types of crime are heavily covered by the news media44)Which paragraph provides a historical context for modern-day blue-collar and white-collar?A. Paragraph 2.B. Paragraph 5.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.45)Which of the following would be an example of white-collar crime?A. Burglary.B. Rape.C. Forgery.D. Kidnapping.参考答案:41) D 42) D 43) A 44) A 45) C∧收起答案。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question. Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneThe Swedes are among the most charming peoples in Europe. And their charm comes from an apparent contradiction in the national character. They are extremely conservative in social relationships; within the family and when meeting friends and business acquaintances, their conduct is governed by strict social patterns.At the same time,they are one of the most ntellectually progressive people in the world. They are always open to new ideas.All social occasions in Sweden are regulated by rules and traditions. And these traditions are expressed in a specific ritual (仪式) made up of formal bows, handshakes, and greetings. When a visitor enters a Swedish home, he is invariably received with a "Welcome"; when he leaves, his host will tell him "You will be welcome again". These charming phrases are an indestructible part of Swedish social life and they give it an old-world flavor of good manners.Equally attractive is the Swedish acceptance of modern technological equipment. A traveller never needs to search for a telephone in Sweden: telephone booths are placed at regular intervals along the main streets and highways. And in church, for example, long benches are fitted with hearing aids for worshippers who may be hard of hearing. Swedish homes are among the best equipped in the world and travellers in Sweden find their journeys made easy by the use of the most efficient modern devices.31. The contradiction of the Swedes can be found in ____.A) their strictness in social activities and friendliness in entertaining guestsB) their conserved attitude towards social relationships and openness to initiative ideasC) their clearly set social patterns and enthusiasm about big partiesD) their specific ritual and concern about good manners32."Invariably" in the second paragraph can be best replaced with ___.A) "often" B) "usually" C) "sometimes" D) "always"33. It cannot be inferred from the passage that the Swedes are ____.A) hard-working B) polite C) considerate D) efficient34. According to the passage, the Swedish social ritual doesn’t include ____.A) greetings B) bows C) handshaking D) embraces35. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) People can hear the priest more clearly with the hearing aids in the church.B) The Swedes' homes are among the best equipped ones in the world.C) Travelers will be most satisfied when travelling in Sweden.D) It's very convenient to make a call in booths in Sweden.Passage TwoAuthor Steven Pincker, a scholar of linguistics, maintained thattraditional anthropology (人类学) has done humanity a great harm by focusing on the odd, unreasonable elements in human society. This has distorted our understanding of each other, separating us into the known and unknown, whatever our perspectives.Pincker’s point is well taken. He argues that should an extraterrestrial (外星人), for example, land on planet earth she would be struck not by these differences, which would be invisible to her, but by how much alike we all are. She would hear us speak, run human speech through her PDA (Personal Digital Assistance), and learn that all human speeches have nouns, verbs and modifiers. Each one of the 800 or so human languages has ways to express relative location (English uses avast array of prepositions for this purpose; other languages use case markers, or post-positional words, like Japanese). All languages express what is past, what is happening at the moment, and has ways to predict or plan future action. All have words and phrases to express hope and hopelessness, passion and friendship, anger and negotiation and apology. The extraterrestrial would say we all speak dialects of one common language.Pincker has noted that there are emotional and cultural universals that stretch across races, across national borders, with differences only in the slightest sense. All cultures value beauty, and a beautiful baby or woman or man is recognized as such whether African, Asian or European. All cultures cherish families and punish crime, and define crime in fairly similar ways.36.Pincker thinks traditional anthropology has laid too much emphasis on____.A) the differences among human beingsB) the similarities among human racesC) the differences between the human and the extraterrestrialD) the similarities between the human and the extraterrestrial37. According to Pinker, if the extraterrestrial comes to earth, ____.A) she will be impressed by the odd and dark sides of human beingsB) human beings tend to treat her in an odd and hostile wayC) she will first notice the common points in all human beingsD) she will be strongly impressed by the language of English and Japanese38. Which of the following point about human languages is NOT mentioned in the passage?A) They all have ways to express relative locations.B) They all have ways to express time.C) They all have ways to describe family and crime.D) They all have ways to describe feels.39. Pincker will most probably agree that ____.A) if we behave like the extraterrestrial, we can be happier and more contentedB) different peoples have different standards about beautyC) different languages on the earth are dialects of one common languageD) if we notice more of the common parts among human beings, we can live a morepeaceful life40. The author's attitude towards Pincker's theory is ____.A) critical B) ironical C) objective D) negativePassage ThreeMany people try every means to make themselves look younger and more attractive. Some even go under the surgeon’s knife to achieve the state of grace. Surgery that can improve the way a person looks is called cosmetic surgery, which is becoming more and more popular in the world nowadays.Both men and women are turning to this treatment as a way of keeping their appearance young as well as keeping competitive in their jobs. Men especially are beginning to turn to facelifts, liposuction (taking fat out of the body), and implants (putting artificial parts into their bodies ) to help them look younger. As companies downsize and move younger employees into higher positions, older employees in their late forties and early fifties feel the need to look and act younger in order to stay competitive. A younger look through cosmetic surgery may give an older employee a few more years on the job. These operations are not without dangers, however.One young woman had an eye operation to get rid of the dark bags under her eyes. She described her experience as terrible. She said, “When he sta rted cutting, I was fully awake. Even though he’d given me an injection near my eyes, I saw everything.” She went on to explain, “I knew I had to keep still because of what he was doing. He was scraping away fat underneath myeyes. It took about ten minute s. After he finished, I felt I couldn’t walk. I was so faint.” Her troubles did not end after the operation. For two weeks, her eyes were swollen and almost completely closed, and even dark glasses could not hide the side effects of the operation.Liposuction, taking fat out of the body, is probably the most popular cosmetic operation in the United States. It seems simple enough. First, a small cut is made over the place where the patient wants the fat removed. Next, a small pipe is put into the cut. A machine like a vacuum cleaner is then turned on, and the fat is sucked right out of the body. However, as one doctor explained, some problems can happen after the operation. He warned, “Irregular lumps and loose skin can result from this operation. If it is no t evenly done, liposuction can produce a very lumpy result.” Patients often must have more liposuction to correct the problem.41. People spend money on cosmetic surgery because_____.A. it is become more and more popular in the world nowadaysB. it can keep them look youngC. it can help them keep their jobsD. both B to C42. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Cosmetic surgery can help people achieve the state of grace.B. Cosmetic surgery is not dangerous.C. Cosmetic surgery is a way to make people look younger by an operation.D. Both women and men try cosmetic surgery to hide their age.43. What can we learn form the third paragraph?A. This was an implant operation.B. The young woman was against cosmetic surgery. the young woman got.C. There were some side effects of the cosmetic surgery the young woman got.D. The young woman got an injection and didn’t know what happened during theoperation.44. What does not mention about Liposuction?A. Fat is taken out of the body.B. A small cut is made over your body.C. Artificial fat is put into the body.D. Fat is sucked out of body through a small pipe.45. We can infer from the last paragraph that_____.A. cosmetic surgery may make some trouble for youB. liposuction is very simple so it is very popularC. a bad liposuction procedure can be fixed三、完型填空(每小题1分,共10分)10 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one answer that best fits into the passage. Then you should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.The United States is a land of many 46 .

英语二 第四单元课后答案及参考译文

第4课Text AWork Is a BlessingI grew up in Lakeland, LA, one of 12 children. We all lived on my parents' subsistence farm(自耕自给农场). We grew cotton, sugar cane, corn, hogs, and chickens and had a large garden, but it didn't bring in much cash. So when I was 12, I got a part-time job on a dairy farm down the road, helping to milk cows. We milked 65 cows at 5 in the morning and again at 2 in the afternoon, seven days a week.工作是一种福气我在路易斯安那州的莱克兰长大,是家里12个孩子之一。

我们所有人都依赖父母的农场勉强维持生活。

我们种棉花、甘蔗、玉米,养猪、养鸡,还有一个大花园,但农场没办法让我们有多少收入,所以我在12岁时在马路旁边的一个奶牛场里找了一份兼职工作——帮忙挤牛奶。

我要在早晨5点钟为65头奶牛挤奶,下午2点钟还要挤一次,一周工作七天。

In the kitchen one Saturday before daylight, I remember complaining to my father and grandfather about having to go milk those cows. My father said, "Ya know, boy, to work is a blessing."在一个周六的黎明之前,我记得我在厨房里跟父亲和爷爷抱怨自己一大早还要去给那些奶牛挤奶,父亲说:“儿子,你要知道,能工作是一种福气啊。

the plane clipped it at a moment of high traffic, one routine thus intersecting another and disrupting both. Then, too, there was the location of the event. Washington, the city of form and regulations, turned chaotic, deregulated, by a blast of real winter and a single slap of metal on metal. The jets from Washington National Airport that normally swoop around the presidential monuments like famished gulls are, for the moment, emblemized by the one that fell; so there is that detail. And there was the aesthetic clash as well—blue-and-green Air Florida, the name a flying garden, sunk down among gray chunks in a black river. All that was worth noticing, to be sure. Still, there was nothing very special in any of it, except death, which, while always special, does not necessarily bring millions to tears or to attention. Why, then, the shock here?就这次灾难而言,这次灾难和其他灾难一样很严重,但并不特殊,当然也绝对不在美国有记载的伤亡人数最多的空难之列。

第二单元Smart CarsMichio Kaku。

7 Two of the most frustrating things about driving a car are getting lost and getting stuck in traffic. While the computer revolution is unlikely to cure these problems, it will have a positive impact. Sensors in your car tuned to radio signals from orbiting satellites can locate your car precisely at any moment and warn of traffic jams. We already have twenty-four Navstar satellites orbiting the earth, making up what is called the Global Positioning System. They make it possible to determine your location on the earth to within about a hundred feet. At any given time, there are several GPS satellites orbiting overhead at a distance of about 11,000 miles. Each satellite contains four "atomic clocks," which vibrate at a precise frequency, according to the laws of the quantum theory.开车最头疼的两大麻烦是迷路和交通堵塞。
