44、very nice, is it?” he said.“Youre telling our guests that they must go at 830.” So Mrs.Harris just wrote “Party: 630 pm.”A lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did not go home at 830.In fact they were still there at midnight when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived.He sai

50、ns do not take all their vacation days,even though they think they need one more holiday.And nearly a third of workers who take a break check their emails from the boss every other day and some even keep in touch hourly.“Were workaholics(工作狂),”said Samuel Nahmias.“From a general perspective,this has
51、 a lot to do with the economic situation in the US.More and more people are unemployed.”With jobless numbers reaching 9.6 percent,people who have jobs seem to be unwilling to take time off.“It_is_not_a_great_picture and that affects vacations.People are not going on vacation as much and those who ar
52、e going on vacation are being more selective about where they are going.”Nahmias explained.Unlike European countries where four or more weeks of holiday each year is normal,27 percent of people questioned in the poll said they had 6 to 10 days of annual leave and 20 percent had less than 3 days.With
53、 more people on unemployment lists in America,those still with jobs are facing more responsibility at work,which is reflected in their lack of time off.The majority of workers who did not take time off mentioned too many responsibilities or stress at work,while some people said they simply did not h
54、ave time to plan a holiday.“People are more conscious of what they are doing and when they are going on vacation because they dont want to look bad in this situation,”Nahmias explained.Technology is also playing a part with smartphones enabling workers to keep in contact in ways that were not possib
55、le before.It has to do with technology and the level of concern about what is going on in the office.【解题导语】本文主要讲述了当前高失业率让美国人不敢休假的现实。60Americans dont take all their vacation days because _.Athey devote themselves to the whole workBthey are afraid that they may lose their jobsCthey are asked to keep i
56、n touch with their bossesDthey arent in need of holidays at all解析:选B。推理判断题。根据第二段的More and more people are unemployed.可推知美国人不敢休假的原因是在经济环境不景气的情况下,他们害怕失业。61What does Nahmias mean by saying the underlined words in Paragraph 3?ATravelling makes people unwelcome.BPeople are unwilling to go on short vacati
57、ons.CThe economic situation remains at a low point.DPeople are more selective about places of interest.解析:选C。细节理解题。由第三段的With jobless numbers reaching 9.6 percent,people who have jobs seem to be unwilling to take time off可知,美国失业率升高,以及第二段的表述可推断,Nahmias的意思为“经济持续低迷”。62We can infer from Paragraph 4 that
58、_.AUnemployment rate is higer in America than that in EuropeBEuropean economic situation is better than that in AmericaCAmericans are more hardworking than EuropeansDMore people are losing their jobs in Europe解析:选A。推理判断题。从第四段的欧洲国家的人每年休假四个星期或以上很正常,并结合With more people on unemployment lists in America,
59、those still with jobs are facing more responsibility at work,which is reflected in their lack of time off可推知美国的失业率比欧洲高。63Whats the main idea of the text?AAmericans are all workaholic.BMany Americans dont choose to take vacations.CUnemployment is going from bad to worse.DUS economic situation becomes
60、 worse and worse.解析:选B。主旨大意题。本文介绍了美国人在经济危机的压力下,担心失业而不敢休假,B项最能表达这一主旨。CScientists have confirmed the first sighting in more than a decade of one of the worlds rarest animalsthe saola,sometimes called the Asian “unicorn”The animal was caught by villagers in Laos in August,according to the International
61、 Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN)The villagers took the saola back to their village in Bolikhamxay province and Laotian conservation authorities(官方) sent a team to check on the animal.The creature,likely weakened from its time in captivity (囚禁),died shortly after that team arrived.“The de
62、ath of this saola is unfortunate,”the Provincial Conservation Unit of Bolikhamxay province said in the IUCN statement.“But at least it confirms an area where it still occurs and the government will immediately move to strengthen conservation efforts there.”This was the first confirmed sighting of a
63、saola since 1992,when remotely controlled cameras took images of one in Laos.First discovered in 1992,the saola is considered extremely endangered,its numbers so few that biologists have never witnessed one in the wild.Fewer than a few hundred saolas are believed to wander the Annamite Mountains of
64、Laos and Vietnam.The carcass of the saola recovered in the Laotian village was being preserved for study,officials said.“Study of the carcass can produce some good from this unfortunate incident.Our lack of knowledge of saola biology has always made it difficult to preserve it,”says Dr Pierre Comizz
65、oli,a veterinarian with the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and a member of the IUCN Saola Working Group.“This can be a major step forward in understanding this extraordinary and mysterious species.”64What could be the reason for the death of the saola?AThe villagers didnt feed it well.BI
66、t was killed for biological study.CThe team carried out an experiment on it.DIts health was badly affected after being caught.解析:选D。根据第二段第三句中“.likely weakened from its time in captivity.”可知,它很可能是因为被村民囚禁起来从而身体虚弱致死。65The underlined word“carcass” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_”Askin BbodyC
67、position Dhabitat解析:选B。分析该句:这只动物死后被保存起来用于研究。因此可以推出该词应该是“尸体”的意思。66The discovery of the saola is of great importance because _.Ait proves that the saola only lives in LaosBit proves that Laos has perfect natural environmentCthe species can be studied further and then protected betterDthe species can b
68、e used to lift the local tourism解析:选C。根据最后一段可知,人们对这种动物知之甚少,所以这次发现有助于对这个物种进一步研究,更好地对它加以保护。67Whats the text mainly about?AEndangered animals in Laos.BA saola was caught and died in Laos.CA saola was killed by the villagers in Laos.DHow the Laotian government protect wildlife.解析:选B。本文主要讲述在老挝一只珍稀野生动物被捉住
69、后不久死亡的事件,故答案为B项。DA daughters duty?Adult daughters are often expected to caregive for older parents.In 2007,Jorjan Sarich and her dad moved from California to Idaho.It was where he wanted to live his rest time.“I left my occupation,I left my friends;he did the same thing,”said Sarich,who bought a hou
70、se with her father,George Snyder,in the China Gardens neighborhood of Hailey after his health began to decline.Though a graduate student struggling to finish her dissertation(论文),Sarich chose to be her dads fulltime caregiver.“Its only now,several years later,that Im realizing how much work it was.I
71、ts the kind of exhaustion(疲惫)that sleep doesnt cure,” she said.About 6 million Americans provide care to elderly relatives or friends living outside of nursing homes.Laurel Kennedy,author of“The Daughter Trap”(Thomas Dunne Books,$25.95),says that women bear a disproportionate(不成比例的)share of the burd
72、enabout 70 percent of handson caregiving such as bathing.“I want to be clear: Women dont hate this,” Kennedy said.“What they hate is that everyone just assumes theyll do it.”Kennedy is calling for a_social_revolution equal to the rise of affordable child care and day care: Employers should help work
73、ing caregivers by offering accommodations.Men should step up more often.Its unfair that women are always chosen to provide care for an elderly family member.Despite the hard work it took on Sarichinterrupted sleep and the knowledge that his 2009 death was the end game,she would do it again.Since abo
74、ut half a century had gone by,she wasnt the person he remembered,and he wasnt the person she remembered either.Caring for her father changed how each saw the other.68Why did Jorjan Sarich caregive for her father?AIt was a very easy job.BShe had no work to do.CIt was the social practice.DShe lived wi
75、th her father.解析:选C。推理判断题。practice意为“惯例;习俗”,根据第一段 Adult daughters are often expected to caregive for older parents.和第四、五、六段可知,女儿照料年迈的父母被认为是一种社会的习俗。Laurel Kennedy提出总是由妇女对年迈的父母提供护理是不公平的。69What can we infer from the book“The Daughter Trap”?ADaughters dont like caregiving.BDaughters devote a lot to care
76、giving.CCaregiving is daughters duty.DCaregiving should be sons duty.解析:选B。细节推断题。“The Daughter Trap”一书重点写了女儿在照料年迈的父母中承担了大量的工作,然而他们毫无怨言。Kennedy呼吁一场社会的变革,应当像照料孩子那样重视老年人养老问题,儿子也应积极承担更多的责任。70What does the underlined phrase“a social revolution” in Paragrarph 5 refer to?AThe child care revolution.BThe ref
77、orm in day care.CThe social development.DThe change in caregiving.解析:选D。文章一开始提出了在照顾年迈的父母中女儿承担了太多的工作,因此Kennedy呼吁一场社会的变革。71How many years did Jorjan Sarich work as her fathers fulltime caregiver?AFive years. BOnly one year.CFour years. DTwo years.解析:选D。细节理解题。在2007年Sarich开始专职伺候父亲直到2009父亲去世,共两年。EIf you
