C

More surprising,perhaps,than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving (興盛).As Skolnick notes,Americans are marrying people—relative to Europeans,more of us marry and we marry at a younger age.Moreover,after a decline in the early 1970s,the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing.Even the divorce rate needs to be taken in this pro-marriage context: some 80 percent of divorced individuals remarry.Thus,marriage remains,by far,the preferred way of life for the vast majority of people in our society.

What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family.Twenty-five years ago,the typical American family consisted of a husband,a wife and two or three children.Now,there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to have any children.And there are many marriages where at least some of the children are from the wife’s previous marriage,or the husband’s,or both.Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage;sometimes they are shared between the two former spouses.

Thus,one can find the very type of family arrangement.There are marriages without children;marriages with children from only the present marriage;marriages with “full time”children from the present marriage and “part-time” children from former marriages.There are stepfathers,stepmothers,half-brothers,and half-sisters.It is not all the unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! There are enormous changes from the traditional nuclear family.But even so,even in the midst of all this,one thing remains constant: most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.

1.By calling Americans marrying people the author means that ______.

A.more of Americans,as compared with Europeans,prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age

B.Americans expect more out of marriage than Europeans

C.there are more married couples in USA than in Europe

D.Americans are more traditional than Europeans

2.Which of the following can be presented as the picture of today’s American families?

A.A typical American family consists of only a husband and a wife.

B.Many types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.

C.Americans prefer to have more kids than before.

D.There are no nuclear families any more.

3.Even though great changes have taken place in the structure of American families ______.

A.the functions of marriage remain unchanged

B.most Americans prefer a second marriage

C.the vast majority of Americans still have faith in marriage

D.marriage is still enjoyed by all Americans

Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-fat diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically(心理上的) and physically.

Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale(秤)instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.

On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.

The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients(營養(yǎng)成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.

Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.

1. From Paragraph 1, we learn that ________.

A. diet products fail to bring out people’s potential

B. people are fed up with diet products

C. people have difficulty in choosing diet products

D. diet products are misleading people

2. One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to _____.

A. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods

B. pay attention to their own eating habits

C. watch their weight rather than their diet

D. try out a variety of diet foods

3.The purpose of writing this passage is _________.

A. to warn people of the side effect of diet products

B. to tell people how to lose weight

C. to advise people to eat diet products

D. to introduce some diet products

4.Which of the following shows the structure(結(jié)構(gòu)) of the passage?

CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要點(diǎn)) C: Conclusion

Lillian Hanson, a college student, expects to graduate in about two years. What makes Mrs Hanson different from her classmates is her age – 73 years. She has been studying at college, a few courses at a time, for 27 years.

When Lillian Hanson graduated from high school, she went to the bank to borrow money for further education. The banker gave her no encouragement. He didn’t think that a country girl should borrow money to go to college. He thought she should be at home doing work in the house or around the farm. So Lillian Hanson went home and raised a family of nine children instead of going to college.

Mrs Hanson never forgot her dream of getting a higher education. When her children grew up, she tried again.

She finds it is the hardest part of going back to school at her age to be sitting in class for long periods of time. Because she is not as quick as she used to be. Mrs Hanson often gets up and walks around between classes to keep from getting stiff(不靈活的). At the beginning of a course in using the computer, the other students all stood up to give her a warm welcome when she introduced herself and explained why she was there and what her aims were.

1.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. An Unusual Student B. A Kind – hearted Mother

C. A Cruel Banker D. A Strange Woman

2.What was the difference between Mrs Hanson and her classmates?

A. She worked hard at her lessons

B. She was much older

C. She was a country girl

D. She was eager to graduate from college

3.Why couldn’t Mrs Hanson go to college soon after she graduated from high school?

A. Because she had got married

B. Because she wanted to teach herself

C. Because she was a country girl

D. Because she wasn’t rich enough

4.In which order did Mrs Hanson do the following things?

a. She had her 73rd birthday

b. She finished high school

c. She began her studies at college

d. She went to the bank to borrow money
