Because zander eat large numbers of smaller fish, they have had a devastating effect on native fish populations. To protect the native fish, a government program removed a significant proportion of the zander from Britains waterways last year. Surprisingly, this year the loss of native fish to zander has been greater than before.阅读-选项passage 1581.Which of the following, if true, would most help to explain the greater effect of zander on the native fish population?A. The climate in Britain is very similar to the climate in regions to which zander are native.B. Most of the zander removed were fully grown, and fully grown zander eat large numbers of smaller zander.C. Every year a large number of zander are caught by sportfisher in Britains waterway.D. Previous government programs designed to remove nonnative species from Britains waterways have failed.E. Zander are just one of several nonnative fish that prey on the other fish found in Britains waterway.阅读-正文Passage 215W.E.B. Du Bois exhibit of African American history and culture at the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle attracted the attention of a world of sociological scholarship whose value his work challenged. Du Bois believed that Spencerian sociologists failed in their attempts to gain greater understanding of human deeds because their work examined not deeds but theories and because they gathered data not to affect social progress but merely to theorize. In his exhibit, Du Bois sought to present cultural artifacts that would shift the focus of sociology from the construction of vast generalizations to the observation of particular, living individual elements of society and the working contributions of individual people to a vast functioning social structure.阅读-选项passage 2151.The passage implies that Du Bois attributed which of the following beliefs to Spencerian sociologists?A. Theorizing is important to the understanding of human actionsB. Vast generalizations have limited value.C. Data gathering is a relatively unimportant part of sociological research.D. Sociology should focus on the living elements of society rather than cultural artifacts.E. Particulars are more important than universals.For the following question, consider each of the choices separately and select all that apply.2.The passage implies that Du Bois believed which of the following statements about sociology?A. It should contribute to the betterment of society.B. It should study what people actually do.C. It should focus on how existing social structures determine individual behavior.阅读-正文Passage 152In February 1848 the people of Paris rose in revolt against the constitutional monarchy of Louis-Philippe. Despite the existence of excellent narrative accounts, the February Days, as this revolt is called, have been largely ignored by social historians of the past two decades. For each of the three other major insurrections in nineteenth-century ParisJuly 1830, June 1848, and May 1871there exists at least a sketch of participants backgrounds and an analysis, more or less rigorous, of the reasons for the occurrence of the uprisings. Only in the case of the February Revolution do we lack a useful description of participants that might characterize it in the light of what social history has taught us about the process of revolutionary mobilization.Two reasons for this relative neglect seem obvious. First, the insurrection of February has been overshadowed by that of June. The February Revolution overthrew a regime, to be sure, but met with so little resistance that it failed to generate any real sense of historical drama. Its successor, on the other hand, appeared to pit key socioeconomic groups in a life-or-death struggle and was widely seen by contemporary observers as marking a historical departure. Through their interpretations, which exert a continuing influence on our understanding of the revolutionary process, the impact of the events of June has been magnified, while, as an unintended consequence, the significance of the February insurrection has been diminished. Second, like other “successful” insurrections, the events of February failed to generate the most desirable kinds of historical records. Although the June insurrection of 1848 and the Paris Commune of 1871 would be considered watersheds of nineteenth-century French history by any standard, they also present the social historian with a signal advantage: these failed insurrections created a mass of invaluable documentation as a by-product of authorities efforts to search out and punish the rebels.Quite different is the outcome of successful insurrections like those of July 1830 and February 1848. Experiences are retold, but participants typically resume their daily routines without ever recording their activities. Those who played salient roles may become the objects of highly embellished verbal accounts or in rare cases, of celebratory articles in contemporary periodicals. And it is true that the publicly acknowledged leaders of an uprising frequently write memoirs. However, such documents are likely to be highly unreliable, unrepresentative, and unsystematically preserved, especially when compared to the detailed judicial dossiers prepared for everyone arrested following a failed insurrection.As a consequence, it may prove difficult or impossible to establish for a successful revolution a comprehensive and trustworthy picture of those who participated, or to answer even the most basic questions one might pose concerning the social origins of the insurgents.阅读-选项passage 1521.With which of the following statements regarding revolution would the author most likely agree?A. Revolutionary mobilization requires a great deal of planning by people representing disaffected groups.B. The objectives of the February Revolution were more radical than those of the June insurrection.C. The process of revolutionary mobilization varies greatly from one revolution to the next.D. Revolutions vary greatly in the usefulness of the historical records that they produce.E. As knowledge of the February Revolution increases, chances are good that its importance will eventually eclipse that of the June insurrection.2.Which of the following is the most logical objection to the claim made in the last paragraph?A. The February Revolution of 1848 is much less significant than the July insurrection of 1830.B. The backgrounds and motivations of participants in the July insurrection of 1830 have been identified, however cursorily.C. Even less is known about the July insurrection of 1830 than about the February Revolution of 1848.D. Historical records made during the July insurrection of 1830 are less reliable than those made during the May insurrection of 1871.E. The importance of the July insurrection of 1830 has been magnified at the expense of the significance of the February Revolution of 1848.3.The purpose of the second paragraph is to explain whyA. the people of Paris revolted in February 1848 against the rule of Louis-PhilippeB. there exist excellent narrative accounts of the February DaysC. the February Revolution met with little resistanceD. a useful description of the participants in the February Revolution is lackingE. the February Revolution failed to generate any real sense of historical drama4.It can be inferred from the passage that the author considers which of the following essential for understanding a revolutionary mobilization?A. a comprehensive theory of revolution that can be applied to the major insurrections of the nineteenth centuryB. awareness of the events necessary for a revolution to be successfulC. access to narratives and memoirs written by eyewitnesses of a given revolutionD. the historical perspective provided by the passage of a considerable amount of timeE. knowledge of the socioeconomic backgrounds of a revolutions participants阅读-正文Passage 112Whereas Carlos Bulosan aimed through fiction and personal testimony to advance both Filipino civil rights in the United States and the social transformation of the Philippines, Yen Le Espiritu has set herself the task of recovering life histories of Filipino Americans. Her work brings Filipino Americans of the generation following the 1934-1965 immigration hiatus graphically to life. A special strength is the representation of Filipino American women, who were scarce among immigrants before the 1934 American curb on Filipino immigration but composed more than half of the immigrants to America since liberalization in 1965. Espiritus subjects document their changing sense of Filipino identity in the United States, much as Bulosan did as a member of the first substantial wave of immigrants.阅读-选项passage 1121.According to the passage, both Bulosan and Espiritu do which of the following in their work?A. consider generational differences in Filipino immigrants responses to life in the United StatesB. attempt to make allowance for the demographic variations among Filipino immigrants to the United StatesC. employ fiction in addition to documenting actual life histories of Filipino immigrants to the United StatesD. represent how life in the United States has affected immigrants sense of F
