b some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. they did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. they did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers. of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.at such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. new safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill. today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. in the u. s， for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. it also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.a third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any company that is breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results. our work places are safer and cleaner than before. the planes and cars which we use for travel are better. producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.()11.the main topic of the passage is_.aconditions in the work place bthe freedom of industries in the pastcchanges in industrial production dthe safety and health of workers and customers()12.it can be inferred from the passage that in the past_.aworkers often got ill because of the poor working conditionsbcompanies were free to put out any products they wanted

about the safety of productsbgovernments paid little attention to the safety of productscgovernment officials often did not listen to scientistsdin the past no safety laws were introduced by governments()14.some years ago safety rules_.awere put forward due to scientists recommendationsbcame into being as a result of the workers demandscwere introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously injureddwere effective enough to protect workers and customers()15.the special departments protect customers and workers in many ways except by_.atesting new products bcontrolling the sale of productscdesigning new products dinspecting work places (二)本文为说明文。文中首先指出在过去，工人在工作中、顾客使用新产品时的安全与健康得不到保障，导致一些灾难的发生。这致使政府采取相关政策，以保障人们的安全与健康。11d主旨大意题。全文通过对比过去与现在，说明了全文的主题是：工人与顾客的安全与健康。故选d。12a推理判断题。根据第一段often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers可推断过去工人常常因工作环境的恶劣而生病，故选a。13d推理判断题。根据二段however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.可推断政府过去并未引进相关的安全措施，故选d。14c细节理解题。根据第二段new

happier childhood than you or i did?its difficult to look back on ones own childhood without some element of nostalgia（怀旧的). i have four brothers and sisters, and my memories are all about being with them. playing board games on the living room floor, or spending days in the street with the other neighborhood children, racing up and down on our bikes, or exploring the nearby woods. my parents hardly appear in these memories, except as providers either of meals or of severe blame after some particularly risky adventure. these days, in the uk at least, the nature of childhood has changed greatlyfirstly, families are smaller, and there are far more only children. it is common for both parents to work outside the home and there is the feeling that there just isnt time to bring up a large family, or that no one could possibly afford to have more than one child. as a result, todays boys and girls spend much of their time alone. another major change is that youngsters today tend to spend a huge amount of their free time at home, inside. more than anything this is due to the fact that parents worry far more than they used to about real or imagined dangers, so they wouldnt dream of letting their children play outside by themselves.finally, the kind of toys children have and the way they play is totally different. computer and video games have replaced the board games and more interesting activities of my childhood. the irony（令人啼笑皆非的事情）is that so many ways of playing games are called interactive”. the fact that you can play electronic games on your own further increases the sense of loneliness felt by many young people today.do these changes mean that children today have a less relaxing childhood than i had? i personally believe that they do, but perhaps every generation feels exactly the same . 64what is the purpose of the direct question given in the first paragraph?ato show who the passage is written for.bto gather peoples opinions on childhood.cto get peoples
