they,ll be able to achieve their American dream.” She may be right.More than hard work or education,the best way to get rich in America is to be born rich.It is the case that somebody who is in the upper third of income,with poor scores at the bottom on tests when they are in the eighth grade,is more likely to go to college and finish college than a poor kid with the top scores.That,s what the working persons children are up against.The Economic Policy Institute finds it would take a poor couple with 2 children 9 or 10 generations to achieve middle class status.Thats about 200 years.The typical feature of American opportunity has always been the ability to do better than your parents.But compared with similar developed countries,the United States ranks fifth out of six for socalled intergenerational mobility.(变动)If you look at the mechanisms(机制)for upward mobility that were so readily available 50 years ago,they are becoming out of reach,like plentiful factory jobs with good wages and affordable education and health care.White families are twice as likely as blacks to be upwardly mobile.For most people in America today,where you end up depends on where you start.If you started in the middleincome class,about 40 to 45 percent of what you are making right now is due to the fact that your parents were in the middleincome class.The rest is up to you.But for the millions of people who find themselves below the poverty line and the millions more who are the working poor,their starting point for the American dream leaves them painfully far away from the middle class.根据所读短文，选择最佳答案。1The main idea of the passage is _.AHow the middle class comes about in the U.S.BIt,s hard to realize the American dream for the poor.CWealth and social status depend on family background.DUpward mobility in America has never been easy.2Which of the statements is NOT true according to the passage?APeople used to have job opportunities and welfare for upward mobility. BA great many poor people can hardly realize theirAmericandream.CYou can make all your dreams come true in America if born rich.DRich kids are more likely to go to college than poor kids.3The underlined sentence “where you end up depends on where you start” most probably means_.Ayour starting point cannot determine your destination.Bonly a high goal can ensure success.Cone,s birth has nothing to do with his fate.Done,s family lays solid foundation for his future achievements.4Why is Abby Subark nervous?AHer kids don,t want to compare with other rich kids in achievement. BHer kids don,t want to achieve success at all.CHer kids can achieve success through hard work and education.DHer kids can,t reach their goal without a rich family.5What can we infer after reading the passage?APoverty causes people much pain.BPeople below the poverty line can never be in the middle class.CLower starting point makes it hard for people to realize their dream. DPoor people,s starting point is too low.参考答案一、1.解析：it指代前文的to go Christmas shopping，在这里作形式主语。答案：it2.解析：与前文的some（一部分人）呼应，这里用others表示另一部分人。答案：others3.解析：由and连接的两个谓语动词，时态应该一致，这里都应该用现在进行时。答案：finding4.解析：固定短语on behalf of，意思是“代表”。答案：behalf5.解析：would rather.than.，宁愿也不。答案：than6.解析：这里在不定冠词的后面应该用名词，organize的名词形式是organization。答案：organization7.解析：过去分词表被动，在这里作定语，意思是“由开始（最先倡导
