9、s (同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers and the country people. Almost
10、90 per cent of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve pockets of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the countrys youth. In contrast, th
11、e rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have “ridden on the sheeps back”, a reference to wool being the countrys main money earner. However, the wool industry is no longer dominant. Much of Australias relatively sound economy is now achieved
12、 from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a self-deprecating sense of humor. On the whole, Australia is a society without
13、 hierarchies (等级制度), an attitude generally held to stem from its prisoner beginnings.Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally comi
14、ng almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australias liberal postwar immigration policies led to an influx of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the
15、majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a blend of nations and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is justifiably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.26. What does the wr
16、iter mean by saying “It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.” in the first paragraph? A. Australians speak Standard English with no local accents whatsoever. B. You have to practice a lot to learn to understand the different accents. C. The Australian regional accents are very difficult t
17、o understand indeed. D. There is not much difference between the accents in different areas of Australia.27. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.B. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.C. The majorit
18、y of people living in Australia come from Europe.D. The pace of life is different in the city and in the country.28. The underlined pronoun it in the final paragraph refers to “_”.A. Community B. racism C. blend of Nations D. Southeast AsiaBWhy does most of the world travel on the right side today?
19、Theories differ, but theres no doubt that Napoleon was a major influence. The French had used the right since at least the late 18th century. Some say that before the French Revolution, noblemen drove their carriages on the left, forcing the peasants to the right. Regardless of the origin, Napoleon
20、brought right-hand traffic to the nations he conquered, including Russia, Switzerland and Germany. Hitler, in turn, ordered right-hand traffic in Czechoslovakia and Austria in the 1930s. Nations that escaped right-hand control, like Great Britain, followed their left-hand tradition. The U.S. has not
21、 always been a nation of right-hand rivers; earlier in its history, carriage and horse traffic traveled on the left, as it did in England. But by the late 1700s, people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift to the right. A driver would sit on the rear (后面的) l
22、eft horse in order to wave his whip with his right hand; to see opposite traffic clearly, they traveled on the right. One of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the U.S. occurred in the 20th century, when Henry Ford decided to mass-produce his cars with controls on the left (
23、one reason, stated in 1908; the convenience for passengers exiting directly onto the edge, especially if there is a lady to be considered). Once these rules were set, many countries eventually adjusted to the right-hand standard, including Canada in the 1920s, Sweden in 1967 and Burma in 1970. The U
24、.K. and former colonies such as Australia and India are among the western worlds few remaining holdouts. Several Asian countries, including Japan, use the left as well thought many places use both right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive cars.31. Why did people in Switzerland travel on the right? A. The
25、y had used the right-hand since the 18th century. B. Rich people enjoyed driving their carriages on the right. C. Napoleon introduced the right-hand traffic to this country. D. Hitler ordered them to go to against their left-hand tradition.32. Of all the countries below, the one that travels on the
26、right is _. A. Austria B. England C. Japan D. Australia33. Henry Ford produced cars with controls on the left _.

C. How Henry Ford produced his cars with controls on the left? D. Why dont people all drive on the same
29、 side of the road?C Some experts argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may h
30、ire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead
31、 of with jobs at the minimum wage. Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages. Economic theory predicts the re
32、sults of economic decision, such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be corrected only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists
33、support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.36.
