Decades of data, including a more recent G

11、allup study, characterizes the US as one of the most geographically mobile countries in the world. “About one in four US adults(24 percent) has reported moving within the country in the past five years.” the reported noted. With the exception of Finns(23 percent) and Norwegians(22 percent), American

12、s move considerably more than their European peers.Though some may move for love or family, the major reason why Americans choose to move around is, unsurprisingly, related to work. Citing data from the Current Population Survey, a post on the blog of the New York Fed noted that between 1998 and 201

13、3, “slightly more than half of interstate(州際的) migrants said they moved for employmentrelated reasonsa category that includes moves undertaken for new jobs, job transfers, and easier commutes(通勤).”The seeking of opportunity, particularly for an immigrant nation, is a national mythology(神話) as well a

14、s an emotional attachment to work. A new working paper analyzed by Ben Steverman at Bloomberg suggests that workers in the US now “put in almost 25 percent more hours than Europeans” in a given year. This figure has steadily risen since the 1970s, when the hours logged by workers in Western Europe a

15、nd the US were roughly the same.There are, of course, some internal factors. The US is much vaster than most European countries, plus it boasts(擁有) a common language. It is considered to be a sign of an efficient labor market that US workers can be persuaded to move to regions where there is a stead

16、y growth in jobs, such as the Sun Belt in recent years. And while American workers often have fewer labor protections than their European counterparts, as a report by the World Bank noted in 2012, American “l(fā)abor laws give employers the power to fire, hire, or relocate(重新安置) workers according to the

17、ir needs”， a flexibility that is thought to aid economic growth. The World Band report added that the occupation of the average US employee in 2006 was 4 years, compared to 10 years in the European Union.Nevertheless, while Americans remain excessively mobile, FaithKarahan and Darious Li at the New

18、York Fed are the latest to note that US workers are moving around less than before. During the 1980s, 3 percent of workingage Americans relocated to a different state each year; that figure had been cut in half by 2010. “While part of the decline can be attributed to the Great Recession，” the author

19、s suggest, “this_phenomenon took place over the course of several decades and is not necessarily related to the economic conditions.”So what accounts for this phenomenon? A roundup of theories by Brad Plumer at The Washington Post included the aging of the US workforce, the further rise of twoincome

20、 households, the burdens of real estate, evolving workplace culture, as well as the flat line of wages, which makes moving away for a job, on average, a less rewarding financial proposition.Karahan and Li put much stock in the effects of an aging workforce, to which they attribute at least half of t

21、he decline in interstate migration. “In short, a young individual today is moving less than a young person did in the 1980s because of the higher presence of older workers，” they write, suggesting that employers have shifted their employment tactics(策略) to adapt to the changing demographics(人口統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù))

22、of the workforce. Needless to say, movies about this era in American life, in which fewer people set out to start lives in wideranging places, will probably be much less exciting.1、According to the passage, in the past five years, Americans have moved _.Arelatively less than the BritishBless frequen

23、tly than ItaliansCslightly more than NorwegiansDconsiderably more than Finns2、What can we infer from Paragraphs 2 and 3?AAmericans choose to move mainly for work and family.BAmericans have a very strong interest in work.CAmericans invested more time in work than Europeans in 1975.DAmericans tended t

24、o move to Europe between 1998 and 2013.3、Which of the following is NOT the reason why American workers move more than their European peers?AThere is a common language in the US.BThe US is much vaster than most European countries.CAmerican labor laws give employers more freedom to deal with them.DThe

27、isappointed22（8分）It could have been any of us, but it happened to be me. I received a brief 18-months of undivided attention and love as the only child, before three more appeared. The second was a severe blow. No doubt, learning the need to share was important, but I had tasted the life of an only

28、child.Then came years of requests to look after the siblings(兄弟姐妹), being urged that, you should be setting a better example, “Again and again the others got away with doing wrong but I didnt. We each played our roles; the second one who later skipped school to meet boys; the ever so attractive thir

29、d, the boy who could do no wrong; and finally the surprise appearance of the fourth, seemed certain to be spoiled even now. So that left me: the reasonable, quiet one who got the grades, did the housework and became a chameleon(變色龍)skilled at reading a situation and being what was needed.Then eventu

30、ally came the chance to be the first to leave and experience life on the outside, not defined(定義) as the eldest. The moment I had waited for. But now, many years later, being the eldest matters again. Its down to me; it seems, to take the lead in caring for our parents. All the time I was made to le

31、arn about sharing; however, when it comes to responsibility, it no longer seems to apply. The others are too busy, too far away, or too unconcerned. So dutifully I travel many times across the country for hours to provide care and support. Requests to my siblings to help out more fall on deaf ears.

32、To me, the dutiful first born, it feels like the right and only thing to do; to be there for our parents as they were for us. Sadly, that feeling isnt shared by the second, third or fourth.1、How does the author comment on the four children in the second paragraph?AAngrily and Bitterly. BAngrily and

33、proudly.CBitterly and humorously. DHumorously and proudly.2、How did the author develop his social skills?AThrough hard work. BWith the parents help.CAt the parents request. DIn practice for effectiveness.3、What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to?ATo care for the old. BTo h

34、elp the young.CTo live outside alone. DTo travel nationwide.4、What can we learn from the text?AThe writer hates to be the eldest.BThe writer feels proud of his role.CThe writer is satisfied with his attempt.DThe writer is regretful about the siblings.23（8分）WE WILL NEVER FORGETELEPHANT ENDOTHELIOTROP

But thanks to etiquette (禮儀) expert and author William Hanson, we

43、realize that little has changed during the past 100 years.In a BBC radio program, Hanson released a list of common words used in British English that could reveal whether a person is “common” or “fashionable”.And yet here comes the interesting part: While some of us might go through life using fancy

44、 words, dressing in ways that make us appear more well-off than we really are, there are wealthy people in the world who try to hide their riches because they want to be seen as “normal” instead of “showy”.Beatrice, for example, is a New Yorker who inherited (繼承) millions of dollars. She told The Ne

45、w York Times that she has a habit of removing the price tags from her clothes so her house staff dont see them and feel uncomfortable.“We dont want that Wow.” said Scott, also a New Yorker, who had just inherited over $50 million. “Were just not the type of people who wear it on our sleeve.”1、What d
