Only a few months 40 the project was underway a tragic on-site accident killed John Roebling and 41 injured his son, leaving him brain-damaged and unable to move or 42 . Surely now the project would have to be 43 . Though

23、ce D. strength第三節(jié) 閱讀理解（20小題，每題2分，共40分）AIn recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more various jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to sug

24、gest that while variety certainly makes the workers life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important, an

25、d there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. An

26、other very important consideration is how each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes m

27、ore to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is degree of the worker contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is im

28、portant. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor w

29、ill shorter working hours be so important to them. 56. Which of the following is the best way to make workers work harder according to the author? A. Increasing their pay. B. Giving them more spare time. C. Making the work itself meaningful. D. Replacing large production lines with small ones. 57. T

30、he reason why a worker cannot have freedom in doing the job in his own way is that _. A. the machinery is so complex that it should be fixed B. the production lines are too large in modern factories C. the bosses can create very little freedom of choices for workers D. the machines must be operated

31、strictly according to instructions and rules 58 For a worker on an assembly line in a car factory, the job is not enjoyable because _. A. he can only make a part of a car B. he does not know what he is doing C. his life in spare time is more interesting D. the importance of his job is not clear to h

32、im 59. In the article, the word “productivity” means _.A. the activity of producing something B. the production volume in a time unit C. the plan and the method of production D. both the quantity and quality of a product 60. The best title for this passage may be _. A. Problems of Modern Workers B.

33、Making Jobs More Interesting C. Pushing Workers to Produce More D. How to Improve Labor ConditionsBIt seems that politicians around the world are thinking about the health of their countries. While in China, Chen Zhu has announced his plans for a universal health service and reform across health ser

34、vices. Gordon Brown, the UK Prime Minister, has also announced he is planning to make some changes in our health service. The crux of Mr. Browns proposals are related to giving the NHS (National Health Service) a greater focus on prevention, rather than just curing patients. He is planning to introd

35、uce increased screening for common diseases such as heart disease, strokes, and cancer, for example, breast cancer. In Britain there are 200,000 deaths a year from heart attacks and strokes, many of which might have been avoided if the condition had been known about. Initially, the diagnostic (診斷的)

36、tests will be available for those who are vulnerable, or most likely to have the disease. One example is a plan to offer all men over 65 an ultrasound test to check for problems with the main artery (動(dòng)脈), a condition which kills 3,000 men a year.The opposition have criticized Mr. Browns proposals, s

37、aying that they are just a trick, and claiming that there is no proper timetable for the changes. They also say that Mr. Brown is reducing the money available for the treatment of certain conditions while putting more money towards testing for them. The NHS was founded in 1948, and is paid for by ta

38、xation. The idea is that the rich pay more towards the health service than the poor. However in recent years there has been a great increase in the use of private healthcare, because its much quicker. NHS waiting lists for operations can be very long, so many people who can afford it choose to pay f

39、or medical care themselves. 61. The underlined word vulnerable in the fourth paragraph probably means _. A. sick B. weak C. wounded D. old62. All the following statements are true except that _. A. all people should pay for their healthcare at the NHS. B. some people are against the reform of the he

40、althcare. C. the writer is likely to come from Britain. D. more money will be spent on testing people than before.63. Which of the following is the reason for the increasing private healthcare? A. People are paying more attention to their own health. B. People are well off enough to pay their health

41、care. C. The NHS was not available for most of the people. D. Its not so convenient for people to go to the NHS for their healthcare. 64. According to the passage, the purpose of the health reform plan in the UK is to _ A. encourage more private healthcare. B. focus on the prevention rather than on

42、curing the patient. C. deal with the main artery problems. D. fight against the opposition in the UK.65. The author of this passage intends to tell us _. A. the NHS should be reformed right away. B. more and more people are dying from diseases. C. the plan to reform the NHS in the UK. D. the critici

43、sm of Mr. Browns proposals.CThe reasons for going to college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go， says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence， because college will help them earn more money， become “better” people， and learn to b

44、e more responsible citizens than those who dont go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending， those who dont fit the pattern are becoming more numerous， and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and

45、driving taxis；college students interfere with each others experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school. Others find no stimulation in their studies，and drop outoften encouraged by college administrators.Some observers say the fault

46、 is with the young people themselvesthey are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But thats a criticize of the students as a whole， and doesnt explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world， and they are partly right. Weve been told that young people have to go to college be

47、cause our economy cant absorb an army of untrained eighteenyearold either.Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best， the proper， the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at

48、 all those surveys and statistics upside down， it seems， and through the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences.Perhaps college doesnt make people intelligent， ambitious， happy， liberal， or quick to learn thingsmaybe its just the other way around， and intelligent， ambitious， happy， libe

49、ral quicklearning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place.And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy (異端邪說(shuō)) to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a

50、 little schooling is good， more has to be much better. But contrary evidence is beginning to gradually increase in amount.66.What does the author believe according to the passage？A. People used to question the value of college education.B. People used to have full confidence in higher education.C. A

51、ll high school graduates went to college.D. Very few high school graduates chose to go to college.67. In the second paragraph，“those who dont fit the pattern” refers to.A. high school graduates who arent suitable for college educationB. college graduates who are selling shoes and driving taxisC. col

52、lege students who arent any better for their higher educationD. high school graduates who failed to be admitted to college68. Why does the drop out rate of college students seem to go up？A. Young people are disappointed with the conventional way of teaching at college.B. Many young people are requir

53、ed to join the army.C. Young people have little motivation in pursuing a higher education.D. Young people dont like the intense competition for admission to graduate school.69.According to the passage， the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that.A. society can not provide enoug

54、h jobs for properly trained college graduatesB. high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college educationC. too many students have to earn their own livingD. college administrators encourage students to drop out70.In this passage the author argues that.A. more and more evidence shows college

55、 education may not be the best thing for high school graduatesB. college education is not enough if one wants to be successfulC. college education benefits only the intelligent， ambitious， and quicklearning peopleD. intelligent people may learn quicker if they dont go to collegeDDear Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul，Most people dont really know what pressures a typi
