　　Most Americans get what money they have from their work；that is ，they earn an income from wages or salaries.The richest Americans，however，get most of their money from what they own—their stocks，bonds，real estate，and other forms of property，or wealth.Although there are few accurate statistics to go by，wealth in American society appears to be concentrated in very few hands.More than 20 percent of everything that can be privately owned is held by less than one percent of the adult population and more than 75 percent of all wealth is owned by 20 percent of American adults.The plain fact is that most Americans have no wealth at all aside from their homes，automobiles，and a small amount of savings.

　　Income in the United States is not as highly concentrated as wealth.In 1917 the richest 10 percent of American families received 26 percent of all income，while the poorest 10 percent received 17 percent，mainly from Social Security and other government payments.The most striking aspect of income distribution is that it has not changed significantly since the end of World War Ⅱ.Although economic growth has roughly doubled real disposable(可自由使用的)family income(the money left after taxes and adjusted for inflation)over the last generation，the size of the shares given to the rich and the poor is about the same.By any measure economic inequality is great in the United States.

　　The reality behind these statistics is that a large number of Americans are poor.In 1918,14 percent of the population was living below the federal government's poverty line，which at that time was an annual income of $9,287 for a nonfarm family of two adults and two children.In other words，about one out of seven Americans over 31 million people was officially considered unable to buy the basic necessities of food，clothes，and shelter.The suggested poverty line in 1981 would have been an income of about $11,200 for a family of four.By this relative definition，about 20 percent of the population or more than 45 million Americans are poor.

　　【语篇解读】 本文分析了美国财富的分配状况及其存在的问题。

　　1．What does the majority of the Americans have in terms of wealth?

　　A．Their income and savings.

　　B．Everything they own in their homes.

　　C．Actually，they have no wealth at all.

　　D．Their house，cars and small amounts of savings.

　　答案　D　[细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“...most Americans have no wealth at all aside from their homes，automobiles，and a small amount of savings.”可推知此题答案为D项。]

　　2．What is the percentage of wealth that is in the hands of most Americans?

　　A．More than 25%.

　　B．Less than 25%.

　　C．More than 75%.

　　D．Less than 20%.

　　答案　B　[细节推断题。根据文章第一段倒数第二句“... more than 75 percent of all wealth is owned by 20 percent of American adults.”可推知此题答案为B项。]

　　3．Why is economic inequality still great in the US in spite of the economic growth?

　　A．Because the proportion of income received by the rich and the poor remains almost the same as in 1917.

　　B．Because the economic growth has widened the gap of the family income between the rich and the poor.

　　C．Because income in the US is still concentrated in the hands of the richest 10% of American families.

　　D．Because some Americans made great fortunes during the Second World War.

　　答案　A　[细节推断题。根据文章第二段第三句“The most striking aspect of income distribution is that it has not changed significantly since the end of World War II.”可推知此题答案为A项。]

　　4．What can we learn from comparison of the two poverty lines in the last paragraph?

　　A．The poverty line of 1918 is more favorable to the poor than that of 1981.

　　B．The 1981 line didn't leave much to the poor.

　　C．There were more Americans who were officially poor by the 1981 line.

　　D．There were more Americans who were officially poor by the 1918 line.

　　答案　C　[细节理解题。文章最后一段是对1918年与1981年所统计的贫困户的数量进行比较。由此可知此题答案为C项。]

　　B

　　China has recently been faced with serious issues of product safety.In Panama，it is said that medicine made with a poisonous chemical sickened some people.A Chinese company had identified it as diethylamide glycol(乙二醇)，a lowcost substi­tute commonly used in automobile antifreeze(防冻剂)．

　　Some countries have banned Chinese­made toothpaste containing diethylamide glycol.China has now told companies to discontinue its use，even though it says the toothpaste is safe. Another industrial chemical，melamine，was found in wheat flour used to make pet food in North America.Thousands of dogs and cats became sick.

　　The United States has restricted some imports of Chinese seafood because they contained banned substance.And questions have been raised about other products，including children's toys covered with lead paint.

　　Chinese officials promised to provide the European Union，the biggest trading partner，with detailed reports on enforcement efforts against unsafe goods.

　　Meglena Kuneva，commissioner(理事) for consumer protection of the European Union said China should have kept its promise.

　　China recently closed three companies linked to the Panama and the pet food scare.And it dismissed the former head of its food and drug administration.He was found guilty of corruption(腐败)for approving unsafe drugs.This week，a conference of the State Council approved a proposed special measure on the supervision of food safety. The Xinhua News Agency said it calls for stronger controls over producers，greater responsibilities for government and more serious punishment for illegal activities.

　　But Chinese officials have accused some foreign media of overstating problems with goods made in China.They say food imports from the United States also fail inspection sometimes.Next week，American and Chinese food safety officials are planning to hold 5 days of meetings in Beijing to discuss cooperation.

　　【语篇解读】 这是一篇夹叙夹议类文章，主要论述了中国最近正面临着严重的产品安全问题，在国外引发了信任危机，就此中国采取了一系列的措施。
