23、 unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in 48 form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make a choice between 49 and fight.

28、estimate of Englands population to be made (the survey did not cover other areas),the number of people has been increasing. This growth has continued despite some setbacks, by far the most serious of which was the Black Death in the mid-14th century, in which it is estimated that about one third of

29、the population died. There is little concrete information, however, concerning variation in rates of births to deaths and of immigration to emigration until 1801,when the first official census(人口普查) was takenThe assumption is that a population of about two million lived in what became the United Kin

30、gdom at the end of the 11th century and that this figure had increased to about 12 million by 1801. This slow growth rate, in contrast with that of more modern times, resulted mainly from the fact that a high birth rate was accompanied by an almost equally high death rateIt is estimated that in the

31、first half of the 18th century three quarters of the children born in London died before they reached adolescenceDespite the awful living conditions it produced, the Industrial Revolution resulted in an acceleration of the birth rate; gradually the greater medical knowledge, improved nutrition, and

32、concern for public health that characterized the 19th and 20th centuries bore fruit in a lower death rate and an overall increase in population. Since the 1930s the population has experienced a complete cycle in its pattern of growthA low rate of increase during the 1930s was followed by a postwar m

33、arriage boom that gave rise to an acceleration in the rate of growth, reaching a peak during the mid-1960s. Since 1964, a considerable fall in the birth rate has brought about a dramatic decline in growth, even giving rise to an absolute decline between 1974 and 1978.36. Which of the following state

34、ments is true as to the Domes Day Survey? A It was made in 1086 to show the variation in population growth in England. B It was a compilation that first gave an estimation of the population of England. C It gave an account of the Black Death in the mid-14th century. D It studied the relation of birt

35、h rate to death rate. 37In 1801, it was discovered that _. A. one third of the population died in the Black Death B. the population had increased rapidly due to higher rates of birth and immigration C. the population had grown very slowly since 1086 D. 10 million children had been born since 1086 &#

36、160;38. The population growth in England began to increase rapidly _. A. since 1801 when the first official census was taken B. in the 18th century when industrial revolution began C. in the 19th century when death rate was greatly reduced D. in the 1930s before the world war broke out 39. The growt

37、h rate of population reached the highest point _. A. in the1930s B. during mid-1960sC. between 1964 and 1967 D. between 1974 and 1978 BWhile researchers have long shown that tall people earn more than their shorter counterparts, it's not only social discrimination that accounts for this inequali

38、ty - tall people are just smarter than their height-challenged peers, a new study finds. "As early as age three - before schooling has had a chance to play a role - and throughout childhood, taller children perform significantly better on cognitive tests," wrote Anne Case and Christina Pax

39、son of Princeton University in a paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research. The findings were based primarily on two British studies that followed children born in 1958 and 1970, respectively, through adulthood and a U.S. study on height and occupational choice. Other studies have

40、pointed to low self-esteem, better health that accompanies greater height, and social discrimination as culprits(罪犯) for lower pay for shorter people. But researchers Case and Paxson believe the height advantage in the job world is more than just a question of image. "As adults, taller individu

41、als are more likely to select into higher paying occupations that require more advanced verbal and numerical skills and greater intelligence, for which they earn handsome returns," they wrote. For both men and women in the United States and the United Kingdom, a height advantage of four inches

42、equated with a 10 percent increase in wages on average. But the researchers said the differences in performance crop up long before the tall people enter the job force. Prenatal care(產(chǎn)前護理) and the time between birth and the age of 3 are critical periods for determining future cognitive ability and h

43、eight. "Prenatal care and prenatal nutrition are just incredibly important, even more so than we already knew," Case said in an interview. Since the study's data only included populations in the United Kingdom and the United States, the findings could not be applied to other regions, C

44、ase said. And how tall are the researchers? They are both about 5 feet 8 inches tall, well above the average height of 5 feet 4 inches for American women. 40. What can be learnt from the study of Anne Case and Christina Paxson is that _ .A. the reason for lower pay for shorter people is social discr

45、iminationB. taller children perform significantly better on cognitive testC. tall people earn more than shorter counterpartsD. prenatal care and prenatal nutrition are less important than we already knew41. Which period is the most important for determining future cognitive ability and height?A. bet

46、ween age 3 and schooling B. between birth and the age of 3C. the whole childhood D. between 1958 and 197042. The underlined phrase “crop up” in the Eighth Paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. get in B. rise up C. come up D. stand up 43. The best title for this passage would be _.A. Tall people ea

47、rn more than shorter counterparts B. A study on height and occupational choiceC. The difference between tall people and short people D.

55、rs. Kim. By mistake, President Clinton s advisers thought that Koreans have the same naming customs as the Japanese. Clinton had not been told that, in Korea, wives keep their family names. President Kim Young Sam's wife was named Sohn Myong Suk. Therefore, she should be addressed (稱謂) as Mrs. Sohn. President Clinton arrived in Korea directly after leaving Japan and had not changed his culture gears. His failure to follow Korea
