二、阅读理解（共 4 道试题，共 40 分。） V 1.
What are the specific traits that will assist executives to climb the ladder of success? Opinions vary widely. Given approximately equal qualifications and circumstances, some claim the success factor is largely a matter of luck — being in the right place at the right time. Others speak of an almost crazy devotion to work, combined with a degree of ruthlessness (无情，冷酷). One “expert” maintains that it’s undoubtedly a matter of how much education your mother had.
To be successful, executives must possess four basic skills:
First, drive. Business success takes an unusual amount of energy. A successful executive — almost by definition — is a striver. He will get tense when he is not striving.
Second, people sense. Some say being able to judge people is more important than a high IQ. The skill can be instinctual (本能的), but in most cases it is painstakingly learned.
Third, communications ability. Different executives make themselves understood in different ways. Some transmit ideas best face to face; others are masters of the telephone call; still others are persuasive writers. One way or another, they all communicate clearly.
Fourth, calm under pressure. No businessman will get very far if he breaks down.
1). Some people claim that besides hard work, the success also requires .
A. equal qualifications
B.
specific traits

a degree of cruelty

Park and monument officials in Washington, D.C., have recently expressed alarm at the increased vandalism to the city's stone and marble memorials. Visitors from all parts of the United States and the world seem to want to take parts of the monuments home with them.
These souvenir collectors chip off pieces of stone when the guards are not looking. This activity seems to be tolerated by other tourists standing nearby, as few complaints are ever recorded.

When your parents advise you to "get an education" in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.
Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.
Get a college degree, if possible. With a B.A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a master's degree, make sure it is an M.B.A., and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.
Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000, while the full professors managed to earn just $23030.
A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future, there are more Ph.D.s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.
If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.
Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns.
You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.
1). According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people
A.
will not be a disgrace to society
B. will become loyal citizens
C.
can take care of themselves
D.
can meet the nation's demands as a source of manpower
标准资料：A
2). Many Ph.D.s are out of job because ___________________.
A.
they are improperly educated
B.
they are of little commercial value to their society

they prefer easier jobs that make more money
标准资料：B
3). The nation is only interested in people _______________.
A. with diplomas
B.
who specialize in physics and chemistry
C.
who are valuable to the gross national product
D. both A and C
标准资料：C
4). Which of the following is not true?
A.
Bernard Shaw didn't finish high schools, nor did Edison.
B.
One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.
C.
The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.
D.
If you are too well-educated, you'll be overeducated for society's demands.
标准资料：C
5). The writer sees education as________________.
A.
a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a country’s demands for technical workers
B.
a way to broaden one's horizons
C.
more important than finding a job
D.
an opportunity that everyone should have
标准资料：A

The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.
One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In the highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured good. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.
1). A small population may mean .
A.
higher productivity, but a lower average income
B.
lower productivity, but a higher average income
C.
lower productivity, and a lower average income
D.
higher productivity, and a higher average income
标准资料：D

A. agriculture
B.
transport system
C. industry
D.
national economy
标准资料：B
3). In a developed country, people will perhaps go out of work if the birthrate .
A. goes up
B.
is decreasing
C. remains stable
D. is out of control
标准资料：B
4). According to the passage slowly rising birthrate perhaps is good for .
A. a developing nation
B.
a developed nation
C.
every nation with a big population
D.
every nation with a small nation
标准资料：B
5). It is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world because .
A.
there too many underdeveloped countries in the world
B.
underdeveloped countries have low level of industrial development
C.
different governments have different views of the question
D.
even developed countries may have complex problems
