One of them plays a guitar made from an empty oil t
16、in. Their headmistress, Emile Jean-Noel, is one of the few women school principals in the country. ks*5uOver 70 % of Haitian population live below the poverty line with inadequate food, water, schools, or housing. To reduce the hunger that prevents learning and to encourage parents to send their chi
17、ldren to school, meals are provided by the World Food Programme. “We are so cut off we have many difficulties,” comments Emile, adding that finding chalk, school books and other materials is practically impossible. Emile tries to encourage those around her to make use of all available resources. Her
18、 efforts are bearing fruit. One of her successes was convincing local women to contribute to their childrens schooling and increase their own income by selling embroidery(刺绣) and other handicrafts. ks*5uRecent political instability has meant that the country has not invested in education for ten yea
19、rs. Enrolment(入学) is a mere 44 per cent and a little less than a half of those entering primary school finish it. Less than a third of these go on to secondary school. In rural areas it is not rare to find 17- and 18 year-olds in primary school. Beau-Roc has only 4 teachers for 260 pupils. Emile wor
20、ks constantly to improve her pupils environment. Under her direction, a local worker is now constructing a storehouse for the food delivered regularly by the World Food Programme.Not only is Emiles salary too little, but she receives it irregularly. For her, transport is a real headache. She lives f
21、ive kilometers away and has to take a privately-owned bus, costing more than she can afford.“The decision to be a rural teacher in Haiti should not be taken lightly”, Emile comments. “With all the sacrifices and risks it requires, only those who are really cut out for teaching should do it.” Neverth
22、eless, Emile loves her job. “I always feel at home with the children and, the parents understand what Im doing.”56. What theme is presented in this passage?A. Devotion to education. B. Poverty and hardship. C. Politics and children D. Love and beauty ks*5u57. Which of the following is extremely diff
23、icult for Beau-Roc primary school?A. Teaching the women how to make embroidery and other handicrafts.B. Persuading local women to care about their childrens education.C. Encouraging those around her to use those available resources.D. Finding chalk, school books and other materials.58. In the last p
24、aragraph, “those who are really cut out for teaching” are those who are _.A. dismissed from teachingB. unfamiliar with teaching C. qualified for teachingD. cautious about teachingB Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition i
25、ncludes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employers and the self-employed. Labor is one of the countrys resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community.Although the size of the workforce depends a great
26、deal on the size of the total population, there are several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution (分布) of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the
27、 available workforce would be lower than if there were a balanced spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly, the number of births greatly exceeds (超出) the number of deaths then as a total population increases proportion of the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is des
28、cribed as aging which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers of young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. In that situation the population is top-heavy with older people. So the pe
29、rcentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate. ks*5uThe age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring
30、 without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes, finance must be available for that purpose. If the si
31、ze of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax revenue (税收) is relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily. 59In the passage “labor force” is defined as _. Apeople who are avail
32、able to work and earn income Bself-employed people only Cpeople who are looking for an employment ks*5uDemployers who create job opportunities 60The conclusion which can be drawn from the second paragraph is that_. Aa natural growth of population leads to a balanced workforceBa large population does
33、 not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforce Cthe larger the population, the higher the proportion of the workforce Dthe workforce will be lower, if the population has a balanced age distribution， 61When a population is said to be aging，_. Athere are more people retiring than those enterin
34、g the workforce Bthe birth rate must be growing Cthere should be an oversupply of workforce DThere are more people entering the workforce than those retiringC (1) Mr. Brown (the motorist) At about 9:20 p.m. on October 14th, I was driving along Market Road in the direction of Midwick. I wanted to go
35、to Sturham to collect my wife, who had been visiting some friends. I prepared to turn into Sturham Road, which was on my right. In the distance, I saw the lights of a car moving towards me but it was along way from me. I put out my hand to show that I was going to turn right. Then I started to turn
36、slowly towards Sturham Road. Suddenly there was a loud noise on the passengers (near) side of the car. I stopped the car and got out. A motorcycle had hit my car. The motorcyclist had been thrown over the car. He was injured, so I ran to a shop to phone for help.(2) Mt. Smith (the injured motorcycli
37、st) On the evening of October 14th, I was going home along Market Road towards Newtown. I was riding my motorcycle. I was going slowly because some of the streetlights were out and road was wet and slippery. Just before Sturham road, a car suddenly drove right across my path. The driver did not flas
38、h his lights to give a warning. I could not turn in time, so I hit the side of the car. When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital in Market Road.(3) Mr. Lee (another motorcyclist) ks*5u At about 9:10 p.m. on October 14th, I left my home in Midwick. Ten minutes later I was riding my motorcycle along
39、Market Road. I was going to Newton. There was a motorcycle about 40 meters in front of me. It was not going very quickly. The man on it was riding near the curb (路边) but I was near the center of the road. The motorcyclist in front of me tried to turn to his right but there was no time. He hit the ca

We would expect to find that Mr. Browns car was damaged on its _ side.A. front B. left C. right D. driversD As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis
44、 has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more. ks*5u Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the
45、 number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the childrens IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there ar
46、e, the less question-asking there is.” The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the
47、 most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible.” Says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are its the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone
48、 from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”66. The writers purpose in writing the text is to _ .A. show the relationship between parents and childrenB. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC. report on the findings of a studyD. give information ab
49、out family problems67. By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children _ .A. have to help their parents to serve dinnerB. get the least attention from the familyC. are often kept away from the dinner tableD. find it hard to keep up with other children68. Pa
50、rents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because _ .A. they are busy serving food to their childrenB. they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC. they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family69. Lewis research
51、provides an answer to the question _ .A. Why TV is important in familyks*5uB. why parents should keep good orderC. why children in small families seem to be quietD. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life70. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to? A. It is imp
52、ortant to have the right food for children. B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner. C. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently. D.
