　　Strange Baby-Naming Laws

　　Germany Parents are banned by law from using last names and the names of objects and products as first names. A child’s first name must clearly indicate his or her sex, and all names must be approved by the office of vital statistics in the area in which the child was born.

　　Iceland The country’s naming committee consults the National Register of Persons to determine if a name is acceptable. If parents want to go through the list, they must apply for approval and pay a fee, and the name must contain only letters in the Icelandic alphabet.

　　New Zealand The country’s Births, Deaths, and Marriages Registration Act of 1995 prohibits parents from choosing a name that “might cause offense to a reasonable person; is unreasonably long; or is, includes, or resembles an official title or rank, ” including, apparently, Adolf Hitler and Yeah Detroit — both names are recently rejected.

　　Denmark If Danish parents prefer a moniker not on the list of 7, 000 preapproved baby names, they must get permission from local church and government officials. Fifteen to 20 per cent of the 1,100 reviewed names — including creative spellings of common names, last names as first names, and unusual names — are rejected each year.

　　1. You can tell whether a baby is a girl or a boy according to the first name in ______.

　　A. Denmark

　　B. New Zealand

　　C. Iceland

　　D. German

　　2. In Iceland, the names should ________.

　　A. be approved by the office of vital statistics

　　B. be accepted by the National Register of Persons

　　C. contain only letters in the Roman alphabet

　　D. be paid for someone

　　3. Which name is accepted in New Zealand?

　　A. Bin Laden.

　　B. Talula Does The Hula.

　　C. Keenan Got Lucky.

　　D. John Smith.

　　4. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

　　A. Danish babies’ names should be on the list if parents can’t get the permission.

　　B. Each year about 150-200 reviewed names are rejected in Denmark.

　　C. Adolf Hitler is banned in Iceland.

　　D. Parents should pay a fee for babies’ names if the names are rejected.

　　Is the “Go to College” message overdone?

　　Even in a weak job market, the old college try isn’t the answer for everyone. A briefing paper from the Brookings Institution warns that “we may have overdone the message” on college, senior fellow Isabel Sawhill said.

　　?We’ve been telling students and their families for years that college is the only way to succeed in the economy and of course there’s a lot of truth to that, ” Ms Sawhill said. “On average it does pay off ... But if you load up on a whole lot of student debt and then you don’t graduate, that is a very bad situation.”

　　One comment that people often repeat among the years of slow job growth has been the value of education for landing a job and advancing in a career. April’s national unemployment rate stood at 7.5%, according to the Labour Department. The unemployment rate for high school graduates over 25 years old who hadn’t attended college was 7.4%, compared with 3.9% for those with a bachelor’s degree or more education. The difference is even bigger among those aged 16-24. The jobless rate for those with only a high school diploma in that age group is about 20%. At the same time, recent research by Canadian economists cautions that a college degree is no guarantee of promising employment.

　　Ms Sawhill pointed out that among the aspects that affect the value of a college education is the field of one’s major: students in engineering or other sciences end up earning more than ones who major in the arts or education. The cost of tuition and the availability of financial aid are other considerations, with public institutions generally a better financial bargain than private ones.

　　She suggested two avenues for improving the situation: increasing vocational(职业的) technical training programmes and taking a page from Europe’s focus on early education rather than post secondary learning. “The European countries put a little more attention to getting people prepared in the primary grades, ” she said. “Then they have a higher bar for whoever goes to college — but once you get into college, you’re more likely to be highly subsidized(资助).”

　　She is also a supporter of technical training — to teach students how to be plumbers, welders and computer programmers — because “employers are desperate” for workers with these skills.

　　1. People usually think that ________.

　　A. the cost of technical schooling is a problem

　　B. one will not succeed without a college degree

　　C. technical skills are most important for landing a job

　　D. there is an increased competition in getting into a college

　　2. What does the underlined part “taking a page from” mean?

　　A. Hearing from.

　　B. Changing from.

　　C. Differing from.

　　D. Learning from.

　　3. What can we infer from the passage?

　　A. Public institutions charge more for education.

　　B. European universities are stricter with students.

　　C. Students with certain skills are in great demand.

　　D. Canadian students prefer to major in engineering.

　　4. Ms Sawhill may probably agree that ________.

　　A. too much stress has been put on the value of college degrees

　　B. technical training is more important than college education

　　C. a college degree will ensure promising employment

　　D. it’s easier for art students to find favorite jobs

　　答案

　　【文章大意】

　　文章介绍我们过分强调了大学学位的重要性，实际上大学学位并不能保证就业和光明的未来，反而现在技术工人的需求量很大，我们可以增加技术院校的比例或向欧洲国家学习，重视初期的教育，保证大学的质量。

　　Ⅲ.语法填空

　　W: How should we behave in social life?

　　M: I think people should trust each other and not be ___1___(honest). People shouldn’t lie to each other.

　　W: But is ___2___ always bad? Sometimes we need to lie ___3___(make) people happy. If your ugly friend ___4___(ask) you “Am I beautiful?”, ___5___ should you say? If you tell her the truth, she might be very upset. You should tell her she is beautiful so that she will be happy.

　　M: I disagree. I think people should always be honest with each other so that they can trust each other. For example, if you tell your ugly friend she is beautiful, she might enter a beauty contest. Then people will laugh ___6___ her and she will be very sad. So she will not trust you anymore.

　　W: That’s ___7___ good point.

　　M: Do you think ___8___ people should fight with each other?

　　W: No, I think fighting is always bad. What do you think?

　　M: I think that fighting is sometimes necessary. If someone attacks your friends or family, you should defend ___9___.

　　W: I disagree. I think that ___10___ people refuse to fight, then there will be less fighting.

　　答案与解析

　　【语篇解读】

　　两人谈论了人们在社会生活中应该如何表现。

　　1. 答案

　　dishonest

　　解析

　　考查词性转换。由上文中的trust each other及此空前的not可知此处应填所给提示词的反义词dishonest。

　　2. 答案

　　lying

　　解析

　　考查语境。由语境可知此处讨论的是撒谎到底好不好，故此处应填动名词形式lying。

　　3. 答案

　　to make

　　解析

　　考查非谓语动词。根据语境可知此处应用不定式作目的状语。

　　4. 答案

　　asks

　　解析

　　考查时态和主谓一致。根据上下文时态可知应用一般现在时，且从句的主语是your ugly friend，故此处谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。

　　5. 答案

　　what

　　解析

　　考查特殊疑问词。由语境可知此处表示“你应该说什么”，故填what。

　　6. 答案

　　at

　　解析

　　考查固定搭配。此处表示“人们将会嘲笑她”，laugh at“嘲笑，讥笑”。

　　7. 答案

　　a

　　解析

　　考查不定冠词。此处表示说话人认为对方的见解好。that’s a good point意为“还真是”。point“要点，重点”，是可数名词，故其前填不定冠词a。

　　8. 答案

　　that

　　解析

　　考查宾语从句的引导词。此处缺少连接词，且后面的从句句子成分完整，故此处应用that引导宾语从句。

　　9. 答案

　　them

　　解析

　　考查代词。由前面的your friends or family可知此处应填代词them。

　　10. 答案

　　if

　　解析

　　考查连词。此处表示“如果人们拒绝打斗”，故应填if，表示条件。
