The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院)knew little about her. The streets where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else-to be independent. At twenty-one,she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary. And then,in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody. Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn't good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her. Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of Hong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places-China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family. The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey is not finished yet.

第5题

Some Stanislaus County farmers are having a tough time harvesting their crops because of a
shortage of workers. For years Vito Chiesa, who farms near Hughson, has grown peaches, but these days he s replacing them with almonds (杏仁). " This is where I started losing peaches," he pointed out to NewslO reporter Tim Daly. "Just like that, we got the bulldozers(推土机)and pushed. You re going to see almonds out there next year." Farmers can t find enough workers to handle crops like peaches that require careful hand picking because machines would damage the ripe peaches and then the farmer could not sell them. Some farmers will soon switch to growing almonds. Almonds are harvested differently. They require fewer workers because trees are mechanically shaken. The almonds fall on the ground and then are gathered up. The farmer does not have to hire many workers to pick the almonds off the trees. Some farmers think there are a couple of reasons for the labor shortage, which is even worse in the southern Central Valley. One is that workers make higher wages doing construction work and there is plenty of that in the Central Valley. Another is that since the September 11, 2001 attacks, there is more enforcement at the state s border with Mexico, resulting in fewer workers coming into California. One solution might be to allow Mexican workers to work here as guests, so people who want to work and contribute to the economy of the U.S. can have the opportunity to provide for themselves and family. That would also help the farm labor situation without making the country less secure. Farmers say that unless things change, more produce will come from South America and China where labor is cheap and there is more competition.

The farmers are reported to have difficulty in______.

A.hiring harvest workers

B.selecting the right fruit to grow

C.selling their farm produce

D.changing their way of farming

We live in an economy based on information and knowledge. The computer

, the mobile phone , and the Internet are all instrumental in the continuing development of the Information Age. Previously , in the Industrial Age , raw materials and physical labor were the key ingredients in the creation of wealth. Today, however, wealth depends on the development and exchange of knowledge. Individuals in the workforce offer their knowledge , not their muscles. Knowledge workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn. More recently , we are hearing the term information worker (i-worker) to describe those who work with information and technology. Regardless of the terminology, knowledge and information workers engage in mind work. They deal with symbols: words, figures , and data. Some knowledge workers in the US worry over the outsourcing of their jobs to skilled workers in other countries. Outsourcing overseas is a reality. Jobs that can be condensed to a set of rules are likely to go first either to workers abroad or to computers. Although we cannot predict the kinds of future jobs that will be available , they wil1

undoubtedly require brainpower and education. Existing jobs , in both good and bad times, give way to shifts in technology and competition. Recessions are followed by recoveries , and the economy adjusts , as it has always done in the past. In the current climate of outsourcing and changing job requirements , workers need to be flexible , to learn continually, and to have strong basic skills.

As a knowledge and information worker , you can expect to be generating , processing, and exchanging information. Whether you work in m-commerce (mobile technology businesses) , e-commerce (Internet-based businesses) , or bricks-and-mortar commerce, nearly three out of four jobs will involve some form.of mind work. J obs that require thinking, brainpower, and decision making skil1 s are likely to remain plentiful. To be successful in these jobs , you wil1 need to be able to think critically, make decisions, and communicate those decisions.

Management and employees will be working together in such areas as product development , quality control , and customer satisfaction. All workers , from executives to subordinates , need to think creatively and critically. Even in factory production lines, workers are part of the knowledge culture. One of the secrets of a well-known carmaker’ s success in the past , said a chief executive of the Japanese carmaker, "is that the company encourages every worker , no matter how far down the production line , to consider himself or herself a knowledge worker and to think creatively about improving his particular corner of the organization. "

Mark the following statements True or False according to the information provided in the text.

1. Today , the development of economy is based on information and knowledge.

2. In the Industrial Age , raw materials and physical labor were the most important in

the creation of wealth.

3.In the Information Age , the creation of wealth depends on the development and

exchange of information and knowledge.

4. In the Information Age , people in the workforce offer more of their knowledge ,

rather than just their muscles , to do their jobs.

5. Knowledge workers are a team of workers formed by people in the management of a

company.

6. Information workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn , and they

engage in mind work , dealing with words , figures and data.

7. Outsourcing of knowledge workers' jobs overseas is not a reality in the US.

8. Knowledge and information workers work at jobs that require thinking , brainpower ,

and decision making skills.

9. To be successful as a knowledge worker , one needs to be able to think critically,

make decisions , and communicate those decisions.

10. All workers , from executives to subordinates , need to think creatively and critically, but those far down the production line should not regard themselves as knowledge workers.

第9题

__________ With half of all homes being priced above the half million dollar mark and
prices in urban areas such as San Francisco and Los Angeles being higher than the state average it is almost impossible for not just the poor but also the lower middle class workers to afford decent housing and no possibility of home ownership. The majority of the population lacks a college education, and the median home price was determined to be $723,790, requiring an upper middle class income which only roughly 20% of all households in the county boast. Such fluctuations in local markets are however not considered in the Federal poverty line and thus leave many who live in poverty-like conditions out of the total number of households classified as poor.

A.Many sociologists and government officials have argued that poverty in the US is understated.

B.The poverty line lost all connection over time with current consumption patterns of the average family.

C.The issue of understating poverty is especially pressing in the states with both a high cost and a high poverty rate such as California.

D.The official poverty line today is essentially what it takes in today's dollars to purchase the same poverty-line level of living half a century ago.

Read Passage 2 and then decide whether each of Statements 21-25 is True or False according to the information given in the passage. Write "T" for true and "F" for false on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 2

How can we ease the process of coming to terms with a new culture?Everyone going to work or study in an alien culture for any length of time will experience culture shock. Sooner or later frustrations and despondency stemming from trying to come to terms with unfamiliar ways will arise. However , it' s possible to take steps to lessen the severity of culture shock and to hasten adjustment to the culture of the new country , to the host culture.

First , newcomers need to remember that the host culture has its own reasons for doing things in a certain way. When you run up against difficulties , try to avoid the simple assumption that people are behaving in an unreasonable or hostile fashion. Be more charitable. Assume instead that your expectations were thwarted because you didn' t yet quite grasp the local ways. Suspend judgment until you are sure you understand the case fully.

Such understanding can come from several sources. One of the most important is from those who come from the same cultural background , who have gone through the same experience and successfully adjusted to life in the new environment. Adaptation is on occasion a two-way process. British workers in a Japanese factory in England have to learn to adapt to the different work practices imported by their Japanese managers from Japan; at the same time the latter have to become acclimatized to life in England....

21. Only a few people may experience culture shock when they come to a new culture.

22. It is important to understand that different cultures have different ways of doing things.

23. People tend to show hostile behavior. when they are in a foreign country.

24. It is useful to talk to people who are newly adjusted to the new culture.

25. It is enough for the newcomers in a culture to adapt themselves.
