回答题

Marriage Advertisements in India

Every Sunday morning millions of Indians settle down with a cup of tea and special weekend issues of their newspapers just as Americans do.But here,with the marriage season approaching, many of them quickly to a Sunday feature that is particularly Indian-the-col-umns of marriage advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives.This is relatively modern change in the age-old custom of the arranged marriage.The thousands of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social changes that coming to this traditional society.For example,although women are still described in terms of appearance or skill in"the wifely arts", information about her earning power is entering more and more of the advertisements.This reflects the arrival in India of the working wife.

Divorce which used to be almost unheard of in India,is sometimes now mentioned in the advertisements as in the case of a woman whose advertisement in New Delhi newspaper explained that had been"the innocent party"when her marriage broke up.

Because the custom of the dowry(marriage payment)is now illegal some advertisements say "no dowry"or"simple marriage",which means the same thing.However,the fathers of many bridegrooms still require it.In a land where light skin is often regarded as socially preferable many also require that a woman have a"wheatcolor"complexion or that a man be"tall,fair and handsome".Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide range of people in the upper classes,mostly in cities.Many of them receive dozens of answers."There's nothing embarrassing about it,'explained a Calcutta businessman advertising a son-in-law."It's just another way of broadening the contacts and increasing the possibility of doing the contacts and increasing the possibilities of doing the best one for one's daughter."

Because of high unemployment and a generally poor standard of living here,one of the best attractions a marriage advertisement can offer is a permit to live abroad,especially in Canada or the United States.A person who has one can get what he wants.One recent Sunday in Madras,for example,a Punjabi engineer living in San Francisco advertised for a"beautiful slim bride with lovely features knowing music and dance".And a man whose advertisement said that he held an American immigration permit was able to say,only girls from rich well-connected families need apply.

1In the text,a Sunday feature is a kind of newspaper advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]A

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

第一段第二句解释了“a Sunday feature”的内容。译文：但在这里，随着结婚季节的临近，很多人阅读具有印度特色的周末版征婚广告栏目，年轻人在那儿寻找自己的另一半。因此题干说法是正确的。答案为A。

2In Marriage advertisements in India women are only introduced in terms of appearance or their skill in being a good wife.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]B

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

利用细节信息词“Marriage advertisements”和“appearance and their skill”在文中找答案相关句：although women are still described in terms of appearance，or skill in“the wifely arts”，information about her earning power is entering more and more of the advertisements．显然答案相关句的内容与问题句内容不一致。答案为B。

3India's society is changing.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]A

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

这道题是主旨题。文章第一段倒数第三句直接反映文章主题：The thousands of advertisements．．．reflect social changes that coming to this traditional society。答案为A。4The word"dowry"in the third paragraph means marriage payment.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]A

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

答案相关旬中“marriage payment”放在括号中出现在“dowry”之后，充当其同位语结构，对其进行解释，因此“dowry”的含义就是“marriage payment(彩礼)”。答案为A。

5In India people with light skin and good feature are preferable.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]C

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

利用细节结构“light skin”和“good feature”作为答案线索，我们知道在印度人们喜好浅亮肤色，但并没有说喜欢“美丽的容貌”，因此问题句中的部分信息没有提到。答案为C。

6Anyone can receive dozens of answers if he/she placed an advertisement.（）A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]B

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

译文：只要刊登了征婚广告，任何人都能收到大量的回信。根据第三段第四、五句，在大多数城市里，上层社会中许多人都会急切地读这些征婚广告。他们中的许多广告能收到几十个回复。由此看出，并不是所有人都能收到大量回复，因此题干说法错误。答案为B。

7The word"one"in"a person who has one can get what he wants"refers to good attraction.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]B

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

首先找到“a person who has one can get what he wants”所在的上下文，然后进行判断，结合前句话的内容“由于高失业率和较低的生活水平”，“one”应该指前句中的“permit to live abroad”(在国外居住的许可)。答案为B。

8Advertisements are only read by a small group of people of high social status（）A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]B

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

利用问题句中含有修饰结构的短语“people of high social status”作为答案线索，在第三段中有相关句“Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide range of people in the upper classes”与“people of high social status”呼应，比较问题句的内容与答案相关旬的内容，发现二者不一致。答案为B。

9In India there is a high divorce rate.（）

A．Right

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]C

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

文章中没有提到印度的离婚率，只是说现在印度人在征婚广告中不像过去以前一样对此讳言的事实。答案为C。

10A male who has an American immigration permit means he is competitive in marriage than others.（）

A．Riht

B．Wrong

C．Not mentioned

[正确答案]A

本题分值：1分

试题解析:

译文：如果一位男士他拥有美国移民许可证，那么他在择偶方面比别人更具竞争力。本文最后一句，持有美国移民许可证的男子则在广告中提到，只有那些来自富裕家庭，有良好社会关系的女子才可应聘。由此看出，这类男性在印度社会更受欢迎，在择偶方面更有竞争力。答案为A。

二、阅读理解(共1题，合计10分)

回答题

Income

Income may be national income and personal income.Whereas national income is defined as the total earned income of all the factors of production--namely,profits,interest,rent,wages,and other corn pensation for labor,personal income may be defined as total money income received by individuals before personal taxes are paid.National income does not equal GNP(Gross National Product)because the actors of production do not receive payment for either capital consumption allowances or indirect business taxes,both of which are included in GNP.The money put aside for

capital consumption is for replacement and thus is not counted as income.Indirect taxes include sales taxes property taxes and excise taxes that are paid by businesses directly to the government and so reduce the income left to pay for the factors of production.Three-fourths of national income goes for wages,salaries,and other forms of compensation to employees.

Whereas national income shows the income that the factors of production earn personal income measures the income that individuals or households receive.Corporation profits are included in national income because they are earned.Out of these profits,however,corporation profit taxes must be paid to the government,and some money must be put into the business for expansion.Only that part of profits distributed as dividends goes to the individual there fore out of corporation profits only dividends count as personal income.The factors of production earn money for social security and unemployment insurance contributions,but this money goes to government(which is not a factor of production),not to individuals.It is therefore part of national income but not part of personal income.

On the other hand money received by individuals when they collect social security or unemployment compensation is not money earned but money received.Interest received on government bonds is also in this category,because much of the money received from the sale of bonds went to pay for war production and that production no longer furnishes a service to the economy.

The money people receive as personal income may be either spent or saved.However not all spending is completely voluntary.A significant portion of our income goes to pay personal taxes. Most workers never receive the money they pay in persona]taxes,because it is withheld from their paychecks.The money that individuals are left with after they have met their tax obligations is disposable personal income.Disposable income can be divided between personal consumption expenditures and personal savings.It is important to remember that personal saving is what is left after spending.

11This passage is mainly about（）

A．the difference between nationa and GNP

B．the difference between national income and personal income

C．the concept of income

D．the difference between disposable income and nondisposahle in-come

[正确答案]B

本题分值：2分

试题解析:

文章主要讲收入的两大分类及其区别。这一点可以从文章的第一句话看出。文章第一段的第一句话常常是文章的论点句。因此A，C和D均不是完整的答案。答案为B。

12Which of the following statements is true according to the first paragraph?（）A．GNP equals national income plus indirect business taxes.

B．GNP excludes both capital consumption allowances and indirect business taxes. C．Personal income is regarded as the total money income received by an individual after his or her taxes are paid.

D．The money that goes for capital consumption is not regarded as income.

[正确答案]D

本题分值：2分

试题解析:

本题的依据是第一段的The money put aside for capital consumption is for replacement and thus is not counted flS income这个句子。对原句的词语选项D用了别的表达方法，但大意仍保持不变。答案为D。

13It can be easily seen from this passage that the government levies tax on.（）A．eorporation profits

B．every individual even though his income is very low

C．those who work in joint ventures

D．those who work in government departments

[正确答案]A

本题分值：2分

试题解析:

本文提到过个人也要缴税，但并没有说每个有收入的人都要缴纳，不管其收入是多少，但是公司的利税是必须缴的。本题的依据是第二段中的一句：0ut of these profits，however，corporation profit taxesmust be paid to the government…C和D在本文中根本没有提到过，故都不对。答案为A。

14According to this passage,the money you get as interest from government bonds is（）A．the money earned

B．the money not earned but received

C．the money received for the contribution you have made to the economy

D．the money earned for the service you have furnished to the economy

[正确答案]B

本题分值：2分

试题解析:

根据第三段第一句：money received by individuals when they collect social security or unemployment compensation is not money earned but money received…以及下旬Interest received on government bonds is also in this category…，可知8是答案。C项中的原因状语从句是不对的，所以C不能作为答案。答案为B。

15The passage implies that（）

A．people willingly pay taxes because they want to do something useful to the country B．people willingly pay taxes because they do not want to be looked down upon by others C．people pay taxes unwillingly because they feel they will be arrested if they do not D．people pay taxes somewhat unwillingly

[正确答案]D

本题分值：2分

试题解析:

文章最后一段表明，并不是所有的开支都是自愿的，个人收入的很大一部分用来付种种税款即是如此。因此选项D是正确的答案。答案为D。
