8、项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 AAccording to sociologists(社会学家), every modern industrial society has some form of social stratification(阶层). Class, power and status are important in deciding peoples rank in society. Class means a persons economic position in society. A commonly used classification is lower class,
9、middle class and upper class. While sociologists disagree on how these terms should be exactly defined, they do describe societies like the United States quite well. One study shows that 53% of Americans belong to the lower class, 46% the middle class, and 1% the upper class. Interestingly, a surgeo
10、n earning 500,000 a year and a bus driver earning 50,000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class! Power refers to the amount of control a person has over other people. Obviously, people in positions of great power (such as governors) exercise(行使)big power, but people who take orders from o
11、thers have less power. Power and class do not always go hand in hand, however. For example, the governor of a state has great power, but he or she may not belong to a corresponding (相应的)economic class. Generally, however, there is a relationship between power and class. To our knowledge, there arent
12、 too many people who arent millionaires in the U.S. Senate! Status is the honor or respect attached to a persons position in society. It can also be affected by power and class, but not necessarily so. For example, a university professor may have a high status but not belong to a high social class o

It was my six-year-old sons winter break form school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a
16、weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York, so I had to get back. But that didnt mean my husband and my son couldnt stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for hom
17、e.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouragedokay, orderedthem to wait it out at the airport, to earn more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?Now some people may think Im a bad mother and not such a great wife either. Bu
18、t as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.Ive made a living looking for the best deals and exposing the worst tricks.

19、couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your moneys worth.

23、d to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didnt think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull
24、. I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words. It takes confidence to make a new start - theres a dark period in-between where youre

Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside. Then I met an agent(代理商)who said
26、 I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel. The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a
27、-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for. It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck - of fate, really. When you set out to do something different, theres no end in sight, so to find myself in

33、es. They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services.
