第13题【单选题】

One reason is economic. In a traditional agricultural economy, large

families are helpful. Having more children means having more workers in

the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. In an

industrial economy, the situation is different. Many children do not help

a family; instead, they are an expense. Thus, industrialization has

generally brought down the birth rate. This was the case in Italy, which

was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. In the early part of the

twentieth century, Italy was a poor, largely agricultural country with a

high birth rate. After World WarⅡ, Italy's economy was rapidly

modernized and industrialized. By the end of the century, the birth rate

had dropped to 1.3 children per woman, the world's a

traditional agricultural economy, a large family_______.

第14题【单选题】

In times of economic crisis, Americans turn to their families for support.

If the Great Depression is any guide, we may see a drop in our skyhigh

divorce rate. But this won’t necessarily represent an increase in happy

marriages. In the long run, the Depression weakened American families,

and the current crisis will probably do the tend to think of the

Depression as a time when families pulled together to survive huge job

losses. By 1932, when nearly one-quarter of the workforce was

unemployed, the divorce rate had declined by around 25% from 1929.

But this doesn’t mean people were suddenly happier with their

marriages. Rather, with incomes decreasing and insecure jobs, unhappy

couples often couldn’t afford to divorce. They feared neither spouse

could manage the Great Depression many unhappy couples

chose to stick together because_____.

A、starting a new family would be hard

B、they wanted to better protect their kids

C、living separately would be too costly

9

【答案解析】答案选 C。推理判断题。由题干中的和unhappy

couples定位到文章第2段最后两句。随着收入下降和工作的不稳定，不幸福的家庭承担不起离婚的费用。他们担心任何一方都无法独自生活。由此可见，在大萧条时期，即使不幸福的家庭也会选择共同生活，因为离婚的费用和独自生活的成本太高了，故答案为C。

"Scientific conservatism suggests that a biological explanation should be

the last choice after all non-biological explanations are addressed," Allen

said. "We have a lot of work to do to rule out possible non-biological

can explain these results."What can be inferred from what Allen said?

A、Scientists have different arguments over whether there is life on

Titan.

B、Scientists all agree that there is life on Titan.

C、Scientists all suggest that a biological explanation is reasonable.

D、Scientists all agree that a non-biological chemical reaction is a

possible explanation.

【正确答案】A

that a biological explanation should be the last choice after all

non-biological explanations are addressed。推断出科学家就Titan上是否有生命的问题观点不同，与A一致。得到答案A。

We are so used to our life on the surface of the earth that it can be quite

an effort for our mind to break free of all the ideas that we take for

granted. Because we can feel that things are heavy, we think of "weight"

could take a one-pound packet of butter 4, 000 miles out from the earth,

it would weigh only a quarter of a much would four pounds

of tea weigh if it was taken 4,000 miles out from the surface of the

earth?

canals，译文重复“开凿运河”而不用代词，这样译是比较清楚的。

考研英语写作注意事项：句子要简洁A hero is nothing but a product of

his time.时势造英雄。写作要求精练，因为，简洁的表达能起到更加强调的作用。我们要写出效果好、影响大的文章，就要想方设法：1.避免使用空洞、多余的短语；2.避免过多地使用较长的句子结构，如并列句和从属句等；3.避免不必要的重复。请看下面各例： to

the fact that I had a lot of work to do, it wasn't possible for me to accept

43

全文可编辑word文档 页眉与背景水印可删除

their invitation.本句要表达的意思很简单，可是一堆空洞的短语使句子显得很累赘，改为下面的句子就简洁明了多了。修改：I was too busy

to accept their is a man who is honest, who always pays

his just debts, and who observes the golden rules in his dealings with

others.英语中比较重要的从属概念可用从句的形式表达，其它次要的概念常用词或短语来表达，因为句子比短语显得更重要。考研教育网提醒大家，过多地使用从句会把次要的与主要的概念混为一谈，削弱句子的重点。该句可改为：修改：He is an honest man who always pays

his just debts, and who observes the golden rules in his dealings with

hometown is a quiet, peaceful place. It is quiet and peaceful

because of the small number of people living there.有时为了构成平行的句子结构或达到强调的目的，我们会重复使用某些词语。但是，无目的地重复会导致笨拙。所以本句可改为：修改：My hometown is a

quiet, peaceful place because of the small number of people.

I found in my baby’s behaviour a metaphor for the new generation. My

wife and I had given him some books to examine，but he merely spit

upon them. When we read to him，he did not feel comfortable. And so it

is in the schools. We find that our students don’t read，that they look

down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to

do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby，however，I have

reached a conclusion: let them watch it. If television is that much more

attractive to children than books，why should we fight it? Let them watch

it all they want!From the passage we know that the author is_____.

A、a doctor

B、an editor

C、a writer

D、a teacher
