9、he two-parent family. Today, millions of American children grow up without fathers. Too often, these children lack the love and help they badly need and which they would ordinarily receive from not one but two parents. In the old days, American parents placed the needs of their children above their
10、own. At present, however, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce(离婚), with often troubling results for their children. Worse, every year, thousands of teenage, unmarried Americans become mothers outside marriage, with generally terrible results for the mothers and children alike and for
11、 American society more generally. However, Chinese continue to value whole marriages. This is not to say that Chinese marriages are all perfect-they certainly are not, judging from increasing rates of divorce and extramarital affairsbut the willingness of Chinese to set aside their own needs and sta
12、y together for the sake of the children is admirable and worthy of study.Families, in whatever form they may take, are important to Americans. If one was to ask a group of Americans what is dearest to them, the majority would say“family”.And yet, so many Americans spend much more time at work-that i
13、s, beyond the formal forty-hour work week-than they do with their own families. Obviously, the USA is one of the most powerful in the world, owing in large measure to“workaholism”（工作狂）.It seems to me that Chinese generally find a better balance between work and family needs than many Americans do. I
14、 dont see the number of workaholics in China that I do in the United States（or American organizations in China）.Instead, average Chinese usually head home right after work（in the office or field），have meals together, and spend time with their family members. Whats more, Chinese try to make more time
15、 for grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins than many Americans; in many cases, multigenerational families live together. Of course, like many facts of Chinese society, this is all changing; increasing numbers of“New Chinese”are working longer hours and spending less time with their families than e
16、ver before. Still, while Americans do value their loved ones. I think we have something to learn from the Chinese about finding the proper balance between work and family.65The main point of the passage is .Afamily plays a very important role in America.Bthere is something about family for Americans
17、 to learn from China.Ca proper balance between work and family needs to be found for ChineseDthe Chinese have a proper balance between work and play66According to the passage, the American family value in the past is that .AAmericans love their families more than their jobs.BAmericans often set asid
18、e their childrens needsCAmericans have a strong work desireDAmerican parents place the needs of their children above their own67It can be concluded from the passage that .Ain the authors eyes, the breakdown of the two-parent family in China will be more serious than that in the U. S. in the future.B
19、today young Americans should reduce their material comforts in the interests of their childrens futureCChinese marriage is said to be all perfectDat present, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce in China68What does the author think according to the passage?AChildren living in one-pare
20、nt families badly need their parents love and helpBChildren with one-parent need their parents money badly.CChinese value whole marriage more than before. DWork is dearest to most Chinese.二In many ways, the earliest periods of photography are the most satisfying. Learning to use the controls is easy
21、 and comes quickly, and you can measure the results in terms of sharp and correctly developed pictures. Once you have mastered that, you can start on the second step of your photographic work. Using these basic skills in a wide variety of situations to give the pictures you want, noticing what you s
22、ee through the viewfinder and turning that into the most effective picture becomes totally interesting.All good photographs have one thing in common; there is no doubt what the subject of the picture is meant to be. Every photographer must use those same standards to his or her work, not only to the
23、 finished results but to the subject before he or she takes it. Always work out quite clearly what the subject of the picture is to be and why you are taking the picture. For example,“I am going to take a picture of this street to show the different styles and ages of the buildings and that people h
24、ave been living, working and shopping in them since time began.”By doing this you have a better idea of what to include in the picture and what to leave out. How often have you been shown photographs taken by people away on a trip somewhere? The judgment is always similar, something about“the car pa
25、rk is out of the picture to the left”, or“you cant quite see from this picture but if you go up the street”. The photographs are usually collections of buildings, people, parked cars, possibly a distant look of an ancient church, and best of all, a figure which you are told is Aunt Henrietta, disapp
26、earing in the middle distance. When photographers show you their pictures, they have a clear idea of what they want to bring to your attention, but it often does not appear in the picture. If they had given just a little of their time to think about their future judgment before taking the picture, t
27、hen the picture would relate its own story. Good pictures can show their subjects quickly and easily.69What does the author mean by saying“in many ways, the earliest periods of photography are the most satisfying”?AThe skills of photography are not as satisfactory nowadays as beforeBThe earliest pic
28、tures were the best pictures people have ever takenCThe present-day photography depends more on technology than on artDLearning to produce a sharp and correctly developed picture is only the first step in photography and is easily learned.70What will it bring you if you decide the purpose of the pho
