Commencement (畢業(yè)典禮) is a time for idealism.
But economic reality is cruel everywhere; especially for new graduate. They have been told repeatedly that a college degree is an open sesame(芝麻) to the global economy. But that’s not necessarily so, according to new research by two economists at he Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Frank Levy and Peter Temin.
It is true that people with college degrees make more money than people without degrees. The gap has narrowed somewhat in recent years, which is disturbing. But the earning power of college graduates still far outpaces that of less-educated workers.
The bad news, though, is that a college degree does not ensure a bigger share of the economics pie for many graduates. In recent decades Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show, only college-educated women have seen their income grow in line with economy wide gains in productivity. The earnings of male college graduates have failed to keep pace with productivity gains.
Instead, a huge share of productivity growth, which expands the nation’s income, is going to Americans on the top of the income scale. In 2005, the latest year with available data, the top of 1 percent of Americans---whose average annual income was $ 1.1 million--- took in 21.8 percent of the nation’s income, their largest share since 1929.
Administration officials, and other politicians and economists, often, believe that income inequality, reflects an education gap. But Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show that in the case of men, the average bachelor’s degree is not enough to catch the rising tide of the global economy.
They argue that the real reason that inequality is worsening is the lack of strong policies that broadly distribute economic gains. In the past, for example, a more progressive income tax and unions promote equality. Positive measures have been eroding and new ones have not yet emerged, making the income gap even greater.
Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin conclude that only a new government policy can restore general prosperity. That’s a challenge to the nation’s leader and today’s graduates. America needs them to contribute to the development of the nation in global economy.
【小題1】The passage is mainly about that _______.

A.there is a big income gap between female and male college graduates in America.
B.college graduates find it hard to find an ideal job after graduation in America.
C.research shows that American government should take measures to ensure income equality for college graduates
D.college degrees are losing value in America.
【小題2】What is the main idea of paragraph 5?
A.The whole nation has enjoyed a big income growth with the growth of productivity.
B.Much of the total income in America has been gained by a few very rich people.
C.A small part of people in America have income increase.
D.Upper class Americans contribute most to productivity growth.
【小題3】The underlined word “eroding” in paragraph 7 probably means _______.
A.being gradually destroyed by wind or rain
B.gradually reducing power
C.gradually disappearing
D.gradually not suitable
【小題4】We can infer from the passage that _______.
A.female college graduates have higher income than male ones.
B.female college graduates have benefited from some governmental measures to ensure their income growth.
C.income tax can grantee income equality.
D.new measures and policies have been taken to promote income equality.
【小題5】From the passage, some economists believe that the worsening income inequality is caused by ______.
A.lower college degree of college graduates
B.lack of proper governmental policies
C.gender discrimination
D.underdevelopment of economy and productivity.

US universities are among the best in the world. Since World War Ⅱ, American scientists --- mostly working in universties or colleges --- have won more than half of all Nobel Prizes in physics and medicine. Foreign students rush to the United States by the tens of thousands. Last year they earned more than one quarter of the doctoral degrees awarded in the country. Yet while American universities produce the great research and great graduate program, they sometimes pay little attention to the task that lies at their very core: the teaching of undergraduate students.
With the increase in fees, educators feel obliged to improve undergraduate teaching. In speeches and interviews the nation’s higher educators have rediscovered teaching. Robert Rosenzweig, president of the Association of American Universities,  said,  “Our organization was never very concerned about teaching. In the last 18 months, we have spent more time on undergraduate education than on any other subject.”
Despite such promising efforts, no one doubts that research still outranks teaching at some of the leading universities, not least because it is a surer and faster way to earn status. Some people don’t think it has to be that way. They argue that the reward system for college faculty can be changed, so that professors will be encouraged to devote more time and effort to teaching. They say that they are beginning to believe that the first ten years of the 21st century may come to be remembered as the decade of the undergraduate.
That would bring it full circle. For more than two centuries after the founding of Harvard College in 1636, the instruction of undergraduate students was an essential condition of American higher education.
【小題1】According to the passage, at some of the leading American universities ________.

A.research is declining in importanceB.teaching now ranks above research
C.teaching is a sure way to gain positionD.research still ranks above teaching
【小題2】It is implied in the passage that about 200 years ago undergraduate instruction ________.
A.began to change all of a sudden
B.was already threatened by research work
C.was the central part of higher education
D.began to be neglected in most universities
【小題3】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.University education in the USB.University education challenged
C.Teaching and research in universitiesD.Undergraduate teaching rediscovered

The modern Olympic Games, founded in 1896, began as contests between individuals, rather than among nations, with the hope of promoting world peace through sportsmanship. In the beginning, the games were open only to amateurs. An amateur is a person whose involvement in an activity---from sports to science or the arts---is purely for pleasure. Amateurs, whatever their contributions to a field, expect to receive no form of compensation ; professionals, in contrast, perform their work in order to earn a living.
From the perspective of many athletes, however, the Olympic playing field has been far from level. Restricting the Olympics to amateurs has precluded(妨礙) the participation of many who could not afford to be unpaid. Countries have always desired to send their best athletes, not their wealthiest ones, to the Olympic Games.
A slender and imprecise line separates what we call “financial support” from “earning money.” Do athletes “earn money” if they are reimbursed(補償) for travel expenses? What if they are paid for time lost at work or if they accept free clothing from a manufacturer or if they teach sports for a living? The runner Eric Liddell was the son of poor missionaries; in 1924 the British Olympic Committee financed his trip to the Olympics, where he won a gold and a bronze medal. College scholarships and support from the United States Olympic Committee made it possible for American track stars Jesse Owens and Wilma Rudolph and speed skater Dan Jansen to train and compete. When the Soviet Union and its allies joined the games in 1952, the definition of amateur became still muddier. Their athletes did not have to balance jobs and training because as citizens in communist regimes, their government financial support was not considered payment for jobs.
In 1971 the International Olympic Committee(IOC) removed the word amateur from the rules, making it easier for athletes to find the support necessary to train and compete. In 1986 the IOC allowed professional athletes into the games.
There are those who regret the disappearance of amateurism from the Olympic Games. For them the games lost something special when they became just another way for athletes to earn money. Others say that the designation of amateurism was always questionable; they argue that all competitors receive so much financial support as to make them paid professionals. Most agree, however, that the debate over what constitutes an “amateur” will continue for a long time.
【小題1】 One might infer that _______________________.

A.developing Olympic-level skills in athletes is costly
B.professional athletes are mostly interested in financial rewards
C.a(chǎn)mateurs does not expect to earn money at the sport that is played
D.a(chǎn)mateurs have a better attitude than professionals do
【小題2】 The statement “the Olympic playing field has been far from level” means that__________.
A.the ground the athletes played on was in bad condition
B.the poorer players were given some advantages
C.the rules did not work the same way for everyone
D.a(chǎn)mateurs were inferior to the professionals in many ways
【小題3】 The financial support given to athletes by the Soviet government can best be compared to ________________.
A.a(chǎn) gift received on a special occasion, such as a birthday
B.money received from a winning lottery ticket
C.a(chǎn)n allowance paid to a child
D.money from charity organization
【小題4】 One can conclude that the Olympic Organizing Committee _________________.
A.has held firm to its original vision of the Olympic games
B.has struggled with the definition of amateur over the years
C.regards itself as an organization for professional athletes only
D.did nothing but stop allowing communists to participate
