From his coat he withdrew a make-up kit, a lipstick and two tubes of toothpaste.“Im disappointed in you, Alfred!” said the little gray-haired man.“Sorry, sir. Please forgive me. Its the first time Ive ever done such a thing,” Alfred lied, hoping to gain the old mans sympathy.Mr Carrs brow furrowed as he reached for the phone, “Do you take me for a fool? Lets see what the police have to say. But first Ill call your mother and let her know her son is heading to jail.”“Do whatever you want,” Alfred shot back, trying to sound big. But deep down he felt like a child. He imagined his mother rushing in, eyes burning with anger, maybe in tears. Yet he wanted her to come quickly before Mr. Carr called the police.Mr. Carr was surprised when Mrs Higgins finally arrived. She was very calm, quiet and friendly. “Is Alfred in trouble?” she asked.“Hes been stealing from the store,” the old man coolly replied.Mrs. Higgins put out her hand and touched Mr. Carrs arm with great gentleness as if she knew just how he felt. She spoke as if she did not want to cause him any more trouble. “What do you want to do, Mr. Carr?”The womans calm and gentle manner disarmed the once-angry store-owner. “I was going to get a cop. But I dont want to be cruel. Tell your son not to come back here again, and Ill let it go.” Then he warmly shook Mrs. Higginss hand.Mrs. Higgins thanked the old man for his kindness, then mother and son left. They walked along the street in silence. When they arrived home his mother simply said, “Go to bed, you fool.”In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. He felt no shame, only pride in his mothers actions. “She was smooth!” he thought. He went to the kitchen to tell her how great she was, but was shocked by what he saw.His mothers face looked frightened, broken. Not the cool, bright face he saw earlier. Her lips moved nervously. She looked very old. There were tears in her eyes.This picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth ending. He saw all the troubles he brought her and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him that this was the first time he had ever really seen his mother.31Which of the following is true according to the passage?AAlfred tried to sound big to hide his fear.BIt was the first time Alfred had stolen anything.CMr. Carr set a trap to catch Alfred stealing.DMr. Carr had planned to forgive Alfred from the beginning.32What does the underlined word “disarmed” probably mean?Aannoyed BconvincedCgot over Dmade less angry33What impressed Alfred most about his mother at the drugstore was _Ahow angry she was Bhow effectively she handled MrCarrCthat she didnt cry Dthat she was able to save him34What was the mothers attitude toward Alfred?AShe was very strict with him BShe was supportive of himCShe felt disappointed with him DShe was afraid of him35From the last paragraph, we know that Alfred _Awas no longer a youth Bfelt proud of his motherCfelt guilty and regretful for his deed Dwanted his mother to be happyCMost Americans get what money they have from their work; that is, they earn an income from wages or salaries. The richest Americans, however, get most of their money from what they own their stocks, bonds, real estate, and other forms of property, or wealth. Although there are few accurate statistics to go by, wealth in American society appears to be concentrated in very few hands. More than 20 percent of everything that can be privately owned is held by less than one percent of the adult population and more than 75 percent of all wealth is owned by 20 percent of American adults. The plain fact is that most Americans have no wealth at all aside from their homes, automobiles, and a small amount of savings.Income in the United States is not as highly concentrated as wealth. In 1917 the richest 10 percent of American families received 26.1 percent of all income, while the poorest 10 percent received 17 percent, mainly from Social Security and other government payments. The most striking aspect of income distribution is that it has not changed significantly since the end of World War II. Although economic growth has roughly doubled real disposable (可自由使用的) family income (the money left after taxes and adjusted for inflation) over the last generation, the size of the shares given to the rich and the poor is about the same. By any measure economic inequality is great in the United States.The reality behind these statistics is that a large number of Americans are poor. In 1918, 14 percent of the population was living below the federal governments poverty line, which at that time was an annual income of $ 9 287 for a nonfarm family of two adults and two children. In other words, about one out of seven Americans over 31 million people was officially considered unable to buy the basic necessities of food, clothes, and shelter. The suggested poverty line in 1981 would have been an income of about $11, 200 for a family of four. By this relative definition, about 20 percent of the population or more than 45 million Americans are poor.36What does the majority of the Americans have in terms of wealth?ATheir income and savings.BTheir house, cars and small amounts of savings.CEverything they own in their homes.DActually, they have no wealth at all.37What is the percentage of wealth that is in the hands of most Americans?ALess than 25%. BMore than 25%.CMore than 75%. DLess than 20%.38Why is economic inequality still great in the US in spite of the economic growth?ABecause the economic growth has widened the gap of the family income between the rich and the poor.BBecause income in the US is still concentrated in the hands of the richest 10% of American families.CBecause the proportion of income received by the rich and the poor remains almost the same as in 1917.DBecause some Americans made great fortunes during the Second World War.39What can we learn from comparison of the two poverty lines in the last paragraph?A. The poverty line of 1918 is more favorable to the poor than that of 1981.B. The 1981 line didnt leave much to the poor.C. There were more Americans who were officially poor by the 1918 line.D. There were more Americans who were officially poor by the 1981 line.40From the last two sentences we can see that 1981 governments poverty line _.Awas of no good for the poor Bwas officially approvedCwas not helpful to the poor Dwas not put into operation thenEFaced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own businesses insteadBut a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required support and remain just thatdreamsThe Shanghai Municipal Employment Promotion Center poll of 1,276 graduates in several universities and colleges in the city, released last Friday, showed 5978 percent of respondents considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least a small store But they just stop at the thinking stage, it statedRespondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of investment and a lack of business opportunityThey also listed lack of business experience and social networks, the need tor advanced study and objections from family members as factors that stood in their wayMore than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years down the roadGuo Bing, a senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last yearBut he is looking for a job first If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company in exhibition services, Guo saidThe Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plantWith their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures(小册子） at a relatively low priceHe is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industrySocial networking is an important factor leading to business success, Guo said Guo said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more university students to set up a business right after their graduationJiang said the university sets up a business guide learn made of government officials and professionalsThey regularly give training courses to students who show an interest in having their own businessThe parents of university graduates are more willing to help their children start up alone, the survey showedOnce you win the support of your family, you have won half the battle, Guo added41Which of the following can be the best title?AA Tough Job Market BGraduates Dream of Being BossCThe Ambitious Fresh Graduates D, The Story ot Guo Bing42Which of the following does NOT stop fresh graduates realizing their dreams of being bosses?AThe lack of business opportunity and investmentBThe shortage of business experience.CLess skilled English languageDTheir family members objections43In the view of Guo Bing, what is the key factor -that makes fresh graduates dream of being boss soon after graduation?ATheir family dont support themBTheir social networking is not goodCThere are not enough graduate jobs DThey want to achieve greater success44All the following statements are true about Guo Bing EXCEPT _AHe has started his own business with the help of his relativesBEnglish is his major in the universityCHe is trying to find a job which can satisfies himDHe is a Shanghai native45Who is this article mostly intended for?AThe parents whose child goes to university soon.BThose who will graduate from universityCThose who want to be bossesDThe officials who work in the government第二节：信息匹配（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）请阅读下列应用文和相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先请阅读下列关于颜色对人的影响的信息。AGOLD According to the True Colors system people who choose GOLD as their primary color like to fit in or belongThey tend to be reliable people who enjoy serving othersThings like tradition, home are very important to themThey need order and structureThey dont like waste or changeBORANGE People who choose orange as their primary color need a lot of variety and freedomThey tak
