30、n the job market. They say this will be a test of both Chinas job market and its carefree younger generation.“Do not worry.

33、Region. She appeared at a job market in Nanning, approximately 300 kilomenters from Guilin, looking rather tired.Many businesses and companies say that they would take on experienced staff rather than the new graduates who are short of the experience of how to succeed in todays fastpaced society.60.

37、e Job Market. B. McDonalds Generation Has Grown up.C. McDonalds Generation Faces Job Hunt.D. The Number of College Graduates Climbs to the Highest Point.CWith the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most heated argument across the United States today is the death penalty(死刑). Many argue
38、that it is an effective deterrent(威胁) to murder, while others think there is no enough proof that the death penalty reduces the number of murders.The argument advanced by those opposed(反对) to the death penalty is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, that it is the tile mark of a bad society and
39、finally that it is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime(罪行) anyway.In our opinion, the death penalty is a necessary action. Throughout recorded history there have always been those peculiar persons in every society who made terrible crimes such as murder. But some are more dangerous
40、 than others.For example, it is one thing to take the life of another in time of blind anger, but quite another to coldly plan and carry out the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder, like all other crimes, is a matter of different degree. While it could be argued with
41、 some reason that the criminal in the first instance should be merely kept from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type murderer.The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be open to discussion. But the majority of people believe that the death penalty protects them.
42、Their belief is proved by the fact that the death penalty prevents murder. For example, from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was carried out from time in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has been done o
43、nly once, and the murder rate has risen to 10. 4 murders for each 100,000 population. The sharp climb in the states murder rate, which began when killing stopped, does not happen by chance. It certainly shows that the death penalty does deter many murderers. If the law about death penalty is vetoed(
44、否决), some people will be murdered some whose lives may have been saved if the death penalty were in effect. This is really a life or death matter. The lives of thousands of people must be protected.64. The main purpose of this passage is to .A. speak for the majority B. support a vetoC. speak ill of
45、 the government D. argue for the value of the death penalty65.Which of the following is among the heated arguments across the USA besides death penalty?A. Air pollution. B. The war against Iraq.C. Equal rights. D. Election fo president.66. The numbers in the last paragraph show that .A. if they stic
46、k to death penalty, the number of murders will be reducedB. death penalty almost stopped from 1954 to 1963C. the population of California has risenD. death penalty is of little value67. It can be inferred that the writer thinks that .A. the death penalty is the most important problem in the United S
47、tates todayB. the second type of murderers (in Paragraph 4) should be sentenced to deathC. the veto of the law about penalty is of little importanceD. the value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime is not to be discussedDSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large m
48、easure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful(有压力的)conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong
49、 support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps pe
50、ople defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in s
51、pite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to
52、meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental supportmoney aid, material resources, and needed servicesthat reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.68. Interpersonal relationship
53、s are important because they can .A. make people live more easily B. smooth away daily problemsC. deal with life changes D. cure types of illnesses69. The researches show that peoples physical and mental health .A. lies in the social medical care systems which support themB. has much to do with the
54、amount of support they get from othersC. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD. is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes70. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work in spare time is an example of .A. instrumental support B. informational suppor
55、tC. social companionship D. the strengthening of self-respect71.Whats the subject discussed in the text?A. Interpersonal relationships. B. Kinds of social support.C. Ways to deal with stress. D. Effects of stressful condition.EThere is much discussion today about whether economic (经济的) growth is des
56、irable. At an earlier period, our desire for material wealth may have proved proper. Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems. Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much , too fast.Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow d
57、own. They believe that society is coming near to certain limits on growth. These include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible bad effects of industry on the natural environment ,and the continuing increase in the worlds population. As society reaches these limits, economic growth can
58、no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease.People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. These proponents of economic growth believe that only more growth can create the capital needed
59、 to improve the quality of life in the world. Furthermore, they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial(财政的) resources required to protect out natural surroundings from industrialization.This discussion over the desirability of continued economic growth is very important to busine
60、ss and industry. If those who argue against economic growth are correct, the problems they mention cannot be ignored(忽视). To find an answer, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another.72. According to those who argue again
61、st economic growth we must slow down for the following reasons EXCEPT that .A. our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industryB. the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which economic growth cannot continue C .the world population is ever increasingD. more ef

64、B. the author is for economic growthC. the author is against continued economic growthD. the author is very much worried about the problems caused by continued economic growth第II卷第四部分 写作第一节 短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误,对标有题号的每一行做出判断:如无错误,在该行右边横线上划一个();如有错误,则按下列情况改正:该行多一个词:把多余的词用斜线()划掉,在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉。该行缺
