【解析】1.根據(jù)第一段的最后兩句,家庭團聚是驅(qū)使許多新移民的另一個強大動機?；蛟S目前反移民游說團體沒有意識到的是:一些新移民往往希望最終回到家鄉(xiāng)定居,只要經(jīng)濟條件允許。由此可知,新移民的態(tài)度是懷舊的,選項C正確。

2.根據(jù)第四段第二句“hecountryoforigin.”移民不斷地將他們目前所處社會的命運與他們在原籍國的經(jīng)歷、機遇和期望進行比較和對照。這是移民考查生活經(jīng)歷的不同標(biāo)準(zhǔn),選項A符合原文。

3.根據(jù)第四段最后一句“Fromthesecondgeneration’sperspective,theirlotinlifehasdecidedlynotimproved.”從第二代人的角度來看,他們的生活顯然沒有改善。也就是說,他們的生活實際上被毀了,因為他們不像上一輩那樣可以對比自己不同的生活經(jīng)歷,他們的評估標(biāo)準(zhǔn)基本來自于影視中,他們?nèi)狈硐搿＿x項A正確。

【答案】第1題:C

第2題:A

第3題:D

第4題:B

第5題:C

【解析】第1題:1.根據(jù)第一段第三句“Evenourschoolsarewherewesendourchildrentogetapracticaleducation—nottopursueknowledgeforthesakeofknowledge.”學(xué)校是我們送孩子去接受實用教育的地方，而不是為了知識而追求知識的地方。選項C符合原文。

2.根據(jù)第四段最后兩句，Hofstadter說，從我們的歷史開始，我們對民主和平民主義的渴望就驅(qū)使我們拒絕任何帶有精英主義的東西。實用性、常識和天生的智慧被認(rèn)為比你從書本上學(xué)到的任何東西都要高尚。由此可以推斷，美國有不重視知識的歷史。選項A符合原文。

3.根據(jù)第二段可知，Ravitch認(rèn)為學(xué)校處于一個實用性比知識更重要的社會，起到一個平衡的作用。根據(jù)第五段的內(nèi)容可知，Emerson認(rèn)為學(xué)校和嚴(yán)格的書本學(xué)習(xí)人為地限制了孩子。由此可知，兩人的觀點是截然相反的。選項D正確。

4.根據(jù)第五段的內(nèi)容可知，愛默生認(rèn)為學(xué)校教育限制了孩子的發(fā)展，下文提到馬克?吐溫的《哈克貝利?費恩歷險記》就是美國反智主義的一個例證。書中主人公為了避免被教化——上學(xué)和學(xué)習(xí)閱讀——這樣他就能保持他與生俱來的善良。由此可知，他們持相同的觀點，都是反智主義，選項B正確。

5.結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容可知，作者大部分內(nèi)容都是在探討美國對知識的不重視，而作者對此是持批判的態(tài)度，作者鼓勵人們追求知識。選項C符合原文。

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:C

第3題:A

第4題:D

【解析】第1題:1.根據(jù)第一段倒數(shù)第三句“forthesakeofpeaceandsecurity...weareplayingitsafe.”為了和平與安全,我們同意善待彼此——不是因為我們想這樣做,而是因為我們謹(jǐn)慎行事。也就是說人與人之間保持和平與安全是有益的。選項B符合原文。

2.根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞“socialcontracttheory”定位到原文第二段,根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二句“Generally,socialcontracttheories...forthesakeofself-protection.”一般來說,社會契約理論認(rèn)為,人類決定建立一個有規(guī)則的社會是為了公共利益或自我保護。選項C符合原文。

3.根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞“MotherTeresa”定位到第三段最后三句,心理利己主義者認(rèn)為他們可能沒有意識到自己的真實動機,但從某種程度上來說,他們是自私的。這些人可能是想上天堂,為過去的錯誤行為贖罪,或者他們只是想感受內(nèi)心的溫暖。選項A符合原文。

4.根據(jù)最后一段倒數(shù)第二句“Suchradicalcynicism...psychologicalegoistsareproneto.”這種極端的犬儒主義不允許善良和善良存在的可能性,這是心理利己主義者容易犯的錯誤之一。也就是說他們很極端,容易懷疑他人,所以選項D正確。

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:C

第3題:D

第4題:B

【解析】1.結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容可知,第一段主要講美國公眾對華爾街的整體看法,接下來的段落便是具體的描述公眾眼中的華爾街。所以選項B最為恰當(dāng)。

2.根據(jù)第一段可知選項A正確;根據(jù)第二段第三句“...butthebailoutwasoftencriticizedaspoliticallymotivated,andwascriticizedbyjournalistsaswellasthepublic.”可知選項B正確;根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容可知選項D也正確,只有選項C在文中沒有提及,且選項中only表述太絕對。所以本題選C。

3.根據(jù)第二段分析師WilliamCohan說的話可知,華爾街金融危機的根源是其貪婪和不負(fù)責(zé)任的冒險行為所導(dǎo)致的,選項D符合原文。

4.根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容可知,電影《華爾街》塑造了戈登?蓋柯的標(biāo)志性人物,他說“貪婪是好的”。這句話產(chǎn)生了意想不到的文化影響,不僅沒有讓年輕人擺脫集體的貪婪,反而讓他們選擇來華爾街冒險。由此可知,戈登?蓋柯被塑造成為了一個偶像,所以選項B正確。
