第14题：
It is surprising that eating three meals a day—breakfast, lunch and dinner—has been a custom only since 1890. Before this time, people only had two meals a day—breakfast and dinner. In the 16th century, breakfast was only to break one’s fast(开戒, 即开始吃东西). But 200 years later it had become a large meal, not just for family, but for numbers of guests as well. It was a social event. It began at 10 a.m. and lasted until 1 p.m. Then breakfast began to be less popular. It became, instead, a lighter meal and was taken at much earlier hour. By 1850 it had been pushed back to 8 a.m. and became a family meal. Dinner, however, went the other way. In the 16th century it was eaten at 11 a.m. Years later, it moved to the early afternoon, then to 5 p.m. By 1850 dinner time had reached 7 p.m. Lunch is a recent idea. It first appeared as a snack to fill the gap between breakfast and dinner.
1.People did not have lunch ______.
A.until 1890
B.after 1890
C.since 1890 Dby 1890
2.“Dinner, however, went the other way” means “______”.
A.dinner didn’t go there with breakfast
B.dinner took the same way as breakfast
C.dinner got later
D.dinner is the same with breakfast
3.Breakfast has been a family meal since the ______ century.
A.17th
B.18th
C.16th
D.19th
4.The passage is mostly concerned with ______.
A.what people eat for breakfast
B.what people eat for dinner
C.the history of supper
D.the history of the three meals
5.The passage leads us to believe that ______.
A.our custom of meals is based on an English custom

Prolonging Human Life
Prolonging human life has increased the size of the human population.Many people alive to-day would have died of childhood diseases if they had been born 100 years ago.Because more people live longer,there are more people around at any given time.In fact,it is a decrease in death rates,not an increase in birthrates,that has led to the population explosion.
Prolonging human life has also increased the dependency load.In all societies,people who are disabled or too young or too old to work are dependent on the rest of society to provide for them.In hunting and gathering cultures,old people who could not keep up might be left behind to die .In times of famine,infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved,whereas if the parents survived they could have another child.In most contempo- rary societies,people feel a moral obligation to keep people alive whether they can work or not. We have a great many people today who live past the age at which they want to work or are able to work;we also have rules which require people to retire at a certain age.Unless these people were able to save money for their retirement,somebody else must support them .In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near
poverty .Older people have more illness than young or middle-aged people;unless they have wealth or private or government insurance,they must often"go on welfare"if they have a serious illness.
When older people become senile or too weak and ill to care for themselves,they create grave problems for their families.In the past and in some traditional cultures,they would be cared for at home until they died.Today,with most members of a household working or in school,there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person.To meet this need, a great many nursing homes and convalescent hospitals have been built.These are often profit-making organizations,although some are sponsored by religious and other nonprofit groups.While a few of these institutions are good,most of them are simply"dumping grounds"for the dying in which"care"is given by poorly paid,overworked,and under-skilled personnel.It can be inferred from the passage that in hunting and gathering cultures______.
A: it was a moral responsibility to keep old-aged people alive
B: infants could be left dead in times of starvation
C: parents had to impart the cultural wisdom of the tribe to their children
D: death was considered to be freedom from hardships答案：B解析：第一段最后一句说“In fact , it is a decrease in death rates , not an increase in birthrates , that has led to the population explosion.”事实上，是由于死亡率的下降，而不是出生率的上升，导致了人口爆炸。因此，选项C是正确答案。
第二段第四句说“In times of famine , infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved,whereas if the parents survived they could have an-other child.”在灾年，可能会容忍婴儿死亡，因为，如果他们的父母俄死了，他们也无法生存，而如果父母生存下来可重新生儿育女。因此，选项B是正确的答案。
第二段倒数第二句是这么说的“In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near poverty."（在美国，许多退休人员依靠社会保障金生活，其数额之小差不多使人穷困潦倒。）可以看出，在美国许多退休人员的生活是很艰难的。这正是选项A表达的意思，因而选项A是正确的答案。
第三段第三句“Today , with most members of a household working or in school , there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person."（当今，由于家庭中大多数人都出去工作或上学，家里常常没有人来照顾有病或虚弱的人。) " this need”出现在下面这个短语中："To meet this need "（为了满足这种需要），它指句子前面的“care for a sick or weak person"。这正是选项D表达的意思。
文章的最后一句说“... most of them are simply " dumping grounds" for the dying in which "care" is given by poorly paid overworKea , and under-skilled personnel"（大多数机构只不过是倾倒垂死的人的“垃圾场”，所谓的“照顾”都是由收入低、超量工作、技术水平低下的人员提供的。）作者如此措辞显然是对大多数机构的强烈批评。因此，选项 D是正确答案。 -

第22题：
问答题Practice 1 Between persons of equal income there is no social distinction except the distinction of merit. There in the world would be great people and ordinary people and little people, but the great would always be those who had done great things, and never the fools whose mothers had spoiled them and whose fathers had left them a hundred thousand a year, and the little would be persons of small minds and mean characters, and not poor persons who had never had a chance. That is why fools are always in favor of inequality of income (their only chance of eminence), and the really great in favor of equality.正确答案：
【参考译文】
在收入相等的人之间,根本不存在社会差别,只有功绩上的差别。世界上存在着伟大的人、普通的人和渺小的人,不过伟人总是那些做出大事的人,而不是那些受到母亲宠爱,父亲每年留给他们十万元的白痴;渺小的人则是那些心胸狭隘、品质卑鄙的人,而不是那些从来没有机会的穷人。白痴总是主张收入不均(这是他们出人头地唯一的机会),真正的伟人则主张平等,原因即在于此。解析： 暂无解析 -
