27、ti, who is the real-life Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy.Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life.

35、True Story of a Young ManWhen Reginald Lindsay received a scholarship to Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia in 1923, what he wanted most was not a job with a good salary, but a chance to be a member of Congress as a southern representative. After earning his degree at Harvard Law School in 1930,

36、he returned to the South to practice law among the poor. “I want to help them understand what their rights are and to help them achieve them,” he said. Then he ran for political office at the local and state level until he was ready to try for Congress.Reg grew up in a low-income Negro section of Bi

37、rmingham, Alabama. Brought up by his grandparents after his parents were divorced while he was very young, Reg had been living through a period of far-reaching progress in race relations. In the summer of 1928 Reg himself became a good example of this progress when he became the first Negro student

38、appointed to a special new program. The program introduced bright young students to the workings of the Georgia State government and encouraged them to seek employment there after finishing their education. “Ive been lucky,” he said. “I seem to have been in the right place at the right time.”But luc

39、k was only part of Regs story, for he made the most of opportunities that came his way. He learned to read in kindergarten and began visiting the public library regularly to borrow books. His grandparents encouraged him, though neither of them had much education, and they bought him a set of encyclo

40、pedias. “I loved those books,” he remembered. “I used to come downstairs before breakfast and read short articles. I enjoyed reading about famous men, and then I would pretend to be one of them. I guess it was partly a childish game and partly an escape. It wasnt too much fun to be a Negro when I wa

41、s a kid.” While studying for his bachelors degree at Morehouse College, Reg worked on several political campaigns helping candidates get elected to government offices. At the same time he maintained a “B” average while majoring in political science.With just two more years to complete at Harvard Law

42、 School, which also gave him a scholarship, Reg made a good start on his professional career. He said, “The good life for me is the kind of life where I can find satisfaction in public service.” Then in 1931 he was the Massachusetts state commissioner of public utilities and from 1993 to 2009 he was

43、 judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.1、After earning his degree from Harvard Law School, Reginald planned to .Areturn to his hometown to find a job with a good salaryBgo back to the South to help the poor understand their rightsCrun for local office to make pr

45、ich of the following words can best describe Reginald?AEnthusiastic and careful.BCooperative and modest.CAmbitious and hardworking.DCourageous and generous.25（10分） That competition keeps prices down is well known. But it is hard to measure by just how much, because prices vary for all sorts of reaso

46、ns, from differences in labour costs and rents to taxes. Rising to the challenge is a new paper in The Economic Journal by Giacomo Calzolari, Andrea Ichino, Francesco Manaresi and Viki Nellas, economists at the European University Institute, Bologna University and the Italian central bank. They look

47、ed at pharmacies(药房) and specifically at customers who may be particularly easy to rip off: new parents.Using data for 2007 to 2010 covering about a fifth of pharmacies in Italy, the researchers measured the way in which prices of hygiene products for babies changed as the number of babies varied. T

48、hey took advantage of a peculiar law from the 1960s, according to which regions with at most 7,500 people are allowed just one pharmacy (supposedly to keep the quality of services high). They compared prices in places with populations just below this threshold, and just above.The products studied in

49、cluded some 3,000 varieties of shampoos, bath foams, baby wipes, creams and so on. Many are also used by adults on themselves. Some people, for example, prefer sun-cream labeled “for children” because of its high level of protection. When raising prices for these products, even a pharmacist with a m

50、onopoly(垄断) must consider the risk that adult users will switch to products that are not aimed at children. But a rise in the number of babies, and hence buyers who are parents, could tip the scales towards price increases. By contrast, the pharmacist should already be charging as much as parents ar

51、e willing to pay for products without adult users, such as nappies.The scholars found that pharmacists raised prices when there were more new parents-but only in regions with a single pharmacy, and not for nappies. In monopoly areas a doubling of the number of babies from one month to the next (not

52、unusual in a small population) coincided with a 5% increase in the price of the basket of baby-hygiene products.The study is timely. Italys government has started to loosen some of the many restrictions that stop competition in the pharmacy sector (though not yet the one that the researchers relied

53、on). But such regulations are plentiful in many other lines of business, and not just in Italy. The consumers who pay the price are often those who find it hardest to travel to shop around-for example, people with crying babies on their hands.1、Whats the purpose of the study?ATo review the function

54、of the special law for pharmacies.BTo make clear the relation between competition and prices.CTo collect the information on pharmacy business in Italy.DTo gather the data on hygiene products for babies in Italy.2、“tip the scales” in Paragraph 3 means “_”.APush the moveBKeep the levelCControl the ris
