and children to support and women usually have (12) . They say that most women workers
are (13 ) unmarried and have no one to support, or have husbands who also work and
bring home money, so that it would be unjust for them to be paid as much ( 14 ) a man
who has a wife ( 15 ) does not work because she has several children at home to look
after. This ( 16 ) is quite true; but you do find some men workers who are unmarried
and have no one to support, and some women workers who are widows and have children to
support. Other women workers, (17) they have no children, may have old or ( 18 )
parents and young brothers and sisters who cannot yet work. The fact is that the problem of paying workers ( 19 ) to their family needs
cannot be solved simply by giving the men more and the women less. The answer is to pay
both (20) , and to leave it to the state to see that justice is done by means of
taxation and allowances. 题目:11. A) Which B) When C) Where D) How

one, including recovery and prosperity. During the recovery period there is ever-
growing expansion of existing facilities, and new facilities for production are crated.
More businesses are created and older ones expanded. Improvements of various kinds are
made. There is an ever increasing optimism about the future of economic growth. Much
capital is invested in machinery of 'heavy' industry. More labor is employed. More raw
materials are required. As one part of the economy develops, other parts are affected.
For example, a great expansion in automobiles results in an expansion of the steel,
glass and rubber industries, Roads are required; thus the cement (水泥) and machinery
industries are stimulated. Demand for labor and materials results in greater prosperity
for workers and suppliers of raw materials, including farmers. This prosperity is
diffused among the various segments of the population. This prosperity is period may
continue to rise and rise without an apparent end. However, a time comes when this
phase reaches a peak and slops spiraling (螺旋上升)upward. This is the end of the
expansion phases. 题目:21.We may assume that in the last paragraph, the write will discuss ________ A) cyclical industries B) the state of farmers. C) the high cost of living D) the recession period.

发展的一个明显的标志。 题目:25.During the period of prosperity people regard the future _______. A) cautiously B) in a confident manner. C) opportunely D) indifferently

labor force must have mobility. Mobility is the ability to move from one place or
situation to another. Without mobility, job opportunities or advancement may be
limited. Job mobility, however, is more than just the ability to move from one place to
another. It may also mean moving from one firm to another or from one job level to
another. Job mobility may even mean changing careers altogether. Why is job mobility so important to one' s career? First, the career for which
you are best qualified may require you to relocate. For example, a person might desire
to become a computer programmer. That career choice may mean leaving one' s hometown
and moving to a larger town or city Second, the higher the level of employment, the
greater the need for job mobility. For example, a chemical engineer needs more mobility
than a factory worker, because this specialty may lead one anywhere in the world.
Third, many large corporations promote from within. If one is unwilling to move from
one it to another, he or she may not be promoted. Finally, if there are no jobs in a
certain location, the choice may be between changing location or becoming unemployed. 题目:26.People must have mobility _________. A) because there has been a great change in today's labor force. B) since they are well prepared to meet the challenge of occupational change. C) in order to meet the demand for the change in occupation. D) which may limit job opportunities or advancement.
正确答案: C 解释: 直接定位法 见文间首句。 题目:27.According to the passage, mobility means anything but ________. A) moving from one place to another. B) moving from one firm to another. C) changing careers from time to time. D) losing one' s job opportunities and becoming unemployed.
正确答案: D 解释: 排错法A 、B、C3个选项在第一段中句可找到,故选D。 题目:28.In the author’s opinion, ________. A) there is no one who is really willing to change his jobs. B) one must leave his hometown if he desires to become a computer programmer. C) a chemical engineer higher in the level of employment as compared with a factory
worker. D) the career you are best qualified for is one that requires you to move from place
to place
正确答案: C 解释: 直接定位法 在第二段的第二个例子中提到,“chemical engineer”是更专业性的故选C。 题目:29.The author' s attitude towards mobility is _______. A) objective B) subjective C) negative D) indifferent
正确答案: A 解释: 总体推断法 作者举例分析了流动性的重要性,故选A最恰当。文中并没有提到作者对此事看法。 题目:30.If you want to have a better chance to be promoted, you _______. A) had better find a job in a larger corporation. B) should be willing to move from one place to another. C) may choose a job location outside a city. D) must be ever ready to do any work you are asked to.
