.

Other senior citizens enjoy their lives. They feel free to do things they were not able to do when they were working and raising families. They now have time to enjoy hobbies and sports and travel. Many senior citizens move to retirement communities located in warm climates. (S9)

.

longer than before. (S10)

Part II. Reading Comprehension (40%)

Directions:Read the following passages carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.

Passage 1

50,000 people work at Disney’s largest theme park, Walt Disney World in Qrlando, Florida. Do all of them like the job?

One Disney worker explains how “cast members” are given jobs according to their age and appearance. For example: Young and pretty workers get jobs where they will interact a lot with customers; Anyone who might seem less “presentable” work on the night shift, from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Mike Cohen, a Disney worker and a trade union activist, says that most Disney workers don’t stay with the company for very long. “You can make $10 per hour if you are here for 10 years, but because so many people leave, two-thirds of the workers at the park make $6.57per hour or less. ”Disney has not increased its starting wage for 5 years. Disney claims that it offers “competitive” salaries. But Cohen doesn’t agree. Disney is planning to expand and will need about 10,000 new workers-but about 75% of the new jobs will also be low paid.

Cohen is also unhappy about the way people have to work at Disney World. “ We have to push as many tourists through each side as we can. I’m supposed to handle 2,000 visitors an hour. It’s just like a factory with assembly-line production, only this is a fun factory. ” Cohen says that the most important thing for the company is the number of people who are processed through each side; if the number is too small, the management complains to the workers. But he says that you never hear the management ask, “Are being safe enough? ”

Disney workers also have to smile all the time. Even when customers are rude (which happens every day ), the workers must keep smiling. Cohen says: “We are supposed to make eye contact, greet each and every guest and smile for eight hours. If you don’t, you get reprimanded (训斥).”He added he sometimes hears customers saying that the workers at Disney are not so happy as they used to be. He is not surprised: if someone isn’t paid enough, you don’t expect them to be happy.

11. It can be inferred from the context that a “ cast member ” of Disney is it’s .

A. security guard

B. cook

C. employee

D. shop assistant

12. Disney World is the one of the American recreation resorts while many employees

think .

A.it’s so competitive working at Disney World.

B.it’s so much fun working at Disney World.

D.it’s very dangerous working at Disney World.

13. Which is Not mentioned as a disadvantage of the job at Disney World ?

A. Accommodation

B. Safety

C. Pay

D. Manner

14. Which of the following is TRUE according to Mike Cohen ?

A.He can’t understand why many Disney workers have giver up their jobs.

B.Most Disney workers earn less than $10 for each hour.

C.Disney workers are not encouraged to please those rude guests.

D.Disney workers are supposed to give each customer a ride.

15. The word “ presentable ” (Para. 2 ) probably means .

A. good-looking

B. different

C. previous

D. physical

Passage 2

After-sales service and guarantee become an integral and essential part of a “good brand”on both local and regional levels, and the provision of such also produces solid ground for customer loyalty.

Customers today are a lot more demanding than before. Being able to find after-sales service creates a feeling of convenience and a sense of responsibility from the manufacturer. This is very important to build customer loyalty and explains why more 24-hour hotline centers are available nowadays.

Product guarantee is also one of the major factors when a potential customer decides to make a purchase. Whether this be in the form of a written guarantee or a guarantee based on reputation, the importance to the consumer is self-evident. A brand’s research & development, an unavoidable investment, usually back up safety guarantees for marketers nowadays. Product testing and refinement are conducted for both new and existing products. With the help of computerized machinery, quality control has achieved the highest level than ever before to enable consistency in production. For the consumer this means a quality of guarantee for that brand whether it be available at home or abroad.

16. After-sales service and guarantee can provide the customers with ________.

A. solid ground for loyalty

Passage 3

Psychics are people who can get information about people, places, or situations through a sixth sense — a sense that exists in addition to those of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and touching. They can use their psychic ability to heal people who are sick, to give advice, to give hints about the future, and to do many other things. And it's not just individuals who use psychics; sometimes companies and governments use psychics, too. One year a company called Delphi and Associates earned $120,000 on the stock market with the help of psychics.

"So how can I get some psychic help?" you may ask yourself. Well, you don't have to pay a lot of money to a professional psychic. You can start by using your own psychic ability.

Psychic abilities are really just another sense, similar to our other five senses. The difference is that we never develop our psychic sense in the same way that we develop our other senses. We train our eyes to see the difference between a V and a U; we train our ears to hear the difference between a /ch/ and a /sh/ sound; we can feel the difference between silk and leather; we can smell and taste if milk is sour. But our sixth sense, our psychic sense, seldom develops very much. Because most of us ignore our psychic sense for so long, it takes some time to develop it. If you have never played soccer before, you cannot expect to be a good player after three lessons. It might take years to become really good. Psychic ability works the same way.

21. People use psychics ________.

A. mainly to see the future

B. to make money

C. to see what one cannot usually see

D. for many reasons

22. ________ learn to use their psychic ability

A. Many people

B. Many companies

C. Few people

D. Few governments

23. Psychic abilities ________.

A. are similar to other senses

B. work in the same way as other senses

C. are different from other senses

D. work together with other senses

24. Our psychic sense seldom develops very much because ________.

A. we never use it

B. we never believe in it

C. we ignore it

D. we don't want to take time to train it

25. The attitude of the author towards psychic abilities is ________.

A. positive

B. ironical

C. critical

D. neutral

Passage 4

It is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10th and 11th centuries. As a wife, the woman was protected by the setting up of a dowry（嫁妆）or decimum. Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of being abandoned, but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The decimum was the wife's right to receive a tenth of all her husband's property. The wife had the right to hold back consent, in all transactions（交易）the husband would make. And more than just a right: the documents show that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife.

The wife shared in the management of her husband's personal property, but the opposite was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in point is that of Maria Vivas, a Catalan woman of Barcelona. Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on compensation（赔偿）. None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the official in charge to have a contract duly drawn up assigning her a piece of land from Miro's personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, "for the sake of peace." Either through the dowry or through being hot-tempered, the Catalan wife knew how to win herself, within the context of the family, a powerful economic position.

26. A decimum was ________.

A. the wife's inheritance from her father

B. a gift of money to the new husband

C. a written contract

D. the wife's right to receive one-tenth of her husband's property

27. In the society described in the passage, the legal standing of the wife in marriage was

________.

A. higher than that of her husband

B. lower than that of her husband

C. the same as that of her husband

D. higher than that of a single woman

28. What compensation did Maria Vivas get for the field?

A. Some of the land Miro had inherited.

B. A tenth of Miro's land

C. Money for household expenses.

D. Money from Miro's inheritance.

29. Could a husband sell his wife's inheritance?

A. No, under no circumstances.

B. Yes, whenever he wished to.

C. Yes, if she agreed.

D. Yes, if his father-in-law agreed.

30. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an effect of the dowry system?

A. The husband had to share the power of decision in marriage.

B. The wife was protected from being abandoned.

C. The wife gained a powerful economic position.

D. The husband was given control over his wife's property.

Part III. Cloze (10% )

Directions: Fill in each blank in the passage with the most likely answer.

My grandparents believed you were either honest or you weren’t. There was no state in 31 . They had a simple motto (格言) 32 on their living-room wall: “Life is like a field of newly fallen snow; 33 I choose to walk every step will 34 . ” They didn’t have to talk about it-they demonstrated the motto by the 35 they lived.

They understood instinctively that integrity (正直) means having a 36 standard of morality and ethics (伦理标准) that is not relative 37 the situation at hand. Integrity is an inner standard for 38 our behavior. Unfortunately, integrity is in short 39 today-and getting scarcer. 40 it is the real bottom line in every 41 of society. And it

is something we must demand 42 ourselves.

A good test for this value is to look at 43 I call the Integrity Triad (三元素), which

44 of three key principles:

Stand 45 for your convictions in the face of personal pressure. When you know you are right, you can’t 46 .

Always give others 47 that is rightfully theirs. Don’t be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be smarter than you are.

Be honest and open about who you really are. Be yourself. Don’t 48 in a personal cover-up of areas that are 49 in your life. When it’s tough, do it tough.

Self-respect and a clear 50 are powerful components of integrity and are the basis for enriching your relationship with others.

Make Our Cities Greener

Recent efforts toward the greening of our cities have achieved much, although the results are still far from satisfactory. Over the past years many trees have been planted in the cities and much care has been taken of the planted trees. In spite of all this, the greening process is relatively slow compared with that of cities in many other countries. For example, the green space available on average to each Shanghai citizen is only 0.4 Mu while every Londoner has more that 20 Mu.

We can benefit much from making our cities greener by planning trees. First, trees aborb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen which is essential to the health of human beings. Second, trees and other greenery make our cities more beautiful. Third, trees can also improve the climate of the cities.

Since we can get so much from making our cities greener, we should spare no effort to do that. We should plant even more trees and take better care of them. We also should not cut down any tree. In a word, we should do everything to add to the greening of our cities.

新视野第三册1单元测试（本单元配有答案）Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题：4 分) Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog. Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good. I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes. We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity. 1.Which people are having trouble with language? A. Natives. B. People of the 2nd generation.

Part 7 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题：1 分) Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog. One phase of the business cycle is the expansion phase. This phase is a two-fold one, including recovery and prosperity. During the recovery period there is ever-growing expansion of existing facilities, and new facilities for production are created. 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 or 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 large expansion in automobiles results in an expansion of the steel, glass, and rubber industries. Roads are required; thus the cement and machinery industries are stimulated. Demand for labor and materials results in greater prosperity for workers and farmers from increased demand for supplies of raw materials. This increases purchasing power and the volume of goods bought and sold. Thus prosperity is diffused (扩散) among the various segments of the population. This prosperity period may continue to rise and rise without an apparent end. However, a time comes when this phase reaches a peak and stops spiraling (盘旋上升) upwards. This is the end of the expansion phase. 1.We may assume that in the next paragraph the writer will discuss ________. A. the expansion phase B. the status of the farmer C. the higher cost of living D. the recession period 2.The title below that best expresses the ideas of this passage is ________. A. Attaining Prosperity in One Industry

For questions 8–10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. Youth of Today —No savings, no pension, huge debts — Leaving school or university means financial independence — but does it also mean debt? Some experts say the young should take some care. It is life, but not as we know it. As this year’s school leavers and graduate s in Britain move on to further education or work, tasting financial independence for the first time, they show signs of being entirely different to previous generations in their attitudes to money, according to information collected by Cash. Used to debt but more affluent than previous generations, the current crop of 16- to 24-year-olds is a complex sector of society. But if they can handle their debts, these 7.5 million young adults have the potential to become quite sophisticated on money matters. Cash looked for the financial hallmarks of this group. They are going to be big spenders and will be targeted heavily by retailers. “The market for products and services aimed at this group has continued to thrive,” concludes research organization Mintel in its recent report for retailers “Selling to and Profi ting from the Under 25s”. This is “partly because the period during which people are young, free and single, unencumbered （不受妨碍的）by parents and /or children has expanded to the late twenties and early thirties,”it says. While 13 percent of the population regularly pays their utility（公共设施）, credit card and other bills late, this proportion rises to a remarkable 64 percent for 18- to 24-year-olds, according to research conducted among 1,000 adults by https://www.wendangku.net/doc/5410695205.html,. In theory, this suggests that more than 4 million of them are heading for such poor credit ratings that they will find it difficult to borrow in the future. But lenders may become more flexible in their lending terms rather than lose out on this huge sector of the consumer market. Nearly one in three (28 percent) of people under 35 “do not consider their future financial position”, according to research from Accenture H R Services. Although half of 18- to 25-year-olds want to own their home some day, they see almost insurmountable hurdles, according to Mintel: “For those who had not yet bought their own property, the prospect of trying to do so seemed daunting — if not impossible —financially.” Or could it be that their future prosperity will depend on whether they inherit property from their parents? They regard as necessities many items which were seen as luxuries by their parents at the same age. More than nine out of 10 have their own mobile phone. “Some looked on their phone as a kind of security blanket, feeling lost without it,” says Mintel. A car is seen as “vital” by 64 percent
