The State of Marriage Today
Is there something seriously wrong with marriage today?During the past 50 years，the rateof divorce in the United States has exploded：almost 50％of marriages end in divorce now, andthe evidence suggests it is going to get worse．If this trend continues．it will lead to the breakupof the family，according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association．Some futuristspredict that in l 00 years．the average American will marry at least four times．and extramaritalaffairs will be even more common than they are now．
But what are the reasons for this，and is the picture really so gloomy?The answer to thefirst question is really quite simple：marriage is no longer the necessity it once was．Theinstitution of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need．Women used to beeconomically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn’t have jobs outside the home．Butwith the rising number of women in well—paying jobs，this is no longer the case，so they don’tfeel that they need to stay in a failing marriage．
In answer to the second question，the outlook may not be as pessimistic as it seems．Whilethe rate of divorce has risen，the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much，somarriage is still quite popular．In addition to this．many couples now cohabit and don’t bot her tomarry．These couples are effectively married，but they do not appear in either the marriage ordivorce statistics．In fact．more than 50％Of first marriages survive．The statistics are deceptivebecause there is a higher number of divorces in second and third marriages than in firstmarriages．
So is marriage really an outdated institution?The fact that most people still get marriedindicates that it isn’t．And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than singlepeople：they suffer less from stress and its consequences，such as heart problems，and marriedmen
generally consider themselves more contented than their single counterparts．Perhaps thekey is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships!

答案与题解：
1．D 从第一段里可以了解到选项A与C都是预计将来会发生的，而不是如今的情况。B选项与第一段第二句“almost 50％of the marriages end in divorce”不符。第一段第二句里的“the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded”、“the evidence suggests it is goingto get worse”话语正好说明了D选项的情况。
2．C 第二段第四句、第五句说得很清楚，妇女们如今在外工作在经济上不再依赖她们的丈夫，因此觉得无需维持行将失败的婚姻。
3．A从第三段里可以了解到离婚率并没有下降而是上升了，因此B选项不对。而C选项与第三段里“In fact，more than 50％of first marriages survive”所说不符，该选项没有提到是第一次婚姻。同样，D选项在文中也没有说到，文中第三段的最后一句只是说统计数据具有欺骗性，而没有说数据失实。
4．C文中第四段第三句的后半句说得很清楚，结了婚的人比单身的人更满足。A，D选项提到的是实际情况而不是婚后人们的感觉，因此不对。文中并没有提到选项B所说的情况。
5．B A选项在第一段最后一句里提到了，C选项和D选项分别在第二段、第四段里提到了，而B选项却没有哪一段具体提到。

Excessive Demands on Young People
Being able to multitask is hailed by most people as a welcome skill，but not according to a recent study which claims that young people between the ages of eight and eighteen of the so-called Generation M1 are spending a considerable amount of their time in fruitless efforts as they multitask. It argues that, in fact, these young
people are frittering away as much as half of their time again as they would if they performed the very same tasks one after the other.
Some young people are juggling an ever larger number of electronic devices as they study. At the same time that they are working, young adults are also surfing on the Internet, or sending out emails to their friends, and／or answering the telephone and listening to music on their iPods2
or On another computer. As some new device comes along it too is added to the list rather than replacing one of the existing devices.
Other research has indicated that this multitasking is even affecting the way families themselves function as young people are too wrapped up3in their own isolated worlds to interact with the other people around them. They can no longer greet family members when they enter the house nor can they eat at the family table.
All this electronic wizardry is supposedly also seriously affecting young people's performance at university and in the workplace. When asked about their perception of the impact of modern gadgets on their performance of tasks, the overwhelming majority of young people gave a favourable response.
The response from the academic and business worlds was not quite as positive. The former feel that multitasking with electronic gadgets by children affects later development of study skills, resulting in a decline in the quality of writing, for example, because of the lack of concentration on task completion. They feel that many undergraduates now urgently need remedial help with study skills. Similarly, employers feel that young people entering the workforce need to be taught all over again, as they have become deskilled.
While all this may be true, it must be borne in mind4that more and more is expected of young people nowadays。in fact, too much. Praise rather than criticism is due in respect of5the way today's youth are able to cope despite what the older generation throw at them．
词汇：
excessive adj．过多的，额外

wizardry n．魔力，法术

注释：
1. Generation M：M代表multimedia。Generation M 即“多媒体时代”，是指伴随着计算机和因特网的普及而成长起来的一代年轻人。他们多出生于1980年之后，热衷于计算机、因特网、视频游戏、智能手机。这些新媒体和传统媒体如电视、印刷品、音响制品结合起来，使得他们的世界异常丰富多彩。“多媒体时代”的另一特征就是可以multitask，即多项任务同时进行，如他们可以_边上网冲浪、一边听着音乐、一边看着电视里的MTV、一边和朋友短信聊天、同时还做着自己的家庭作业。
2．iPod：美国苹果公司的一款音乐播放器，除了可以播放MP3音乐外，iPod还可以作为高速移动硬盘使用，可以显示联系人、日历和任务，以及阅读电子书和聆听有声电子书以及播客(Podcasts)。
3．be wrapped up in．．．注意力完全集中于……
4．bear in mind记住
5．in respect of关于，就……而言
练习：
1．According to a recent study, what is probably true about the multitasking Generation M?
A)They are highly commended for being so effective and efficient．
B)They waste more time than they should save, contrary to common assumptions．
C)They should prioritize and focus on the most important tasks on hand．
D)They need to improve their organizational skills SO as to complete all their tasks．
2．With the advent of new gadgets, what will happen to Generation M's present e-devices?
A)They make way for the latest and greatest and are retired by the young people．
B)They are put away temporarily but stay in rotation for their owners to choose from．
C)They become part of the ever increasing collection of novelties．
D)They are either sold or traded so that their owners can update their toys and hobbies．
3．How will multitasking affect Generation M adversely?
A) It makes them feel lonely and pitiful.
B) It makes them aloof and elusive to family and friends.
C) It makes them selfish and possessive．
D) It makes them impolite and ungrateful．
4．What is the biggest problem for multitasking undergraduates in universities?
A) They should adjust their academic attitudes seriously.
B) They should seek psychological professionals for assistance.
C) They should take some crash courses to catch up with their classmates.
D) They should try harder to focus on one task before moving on to the next. 5．In dealing with today's youth, what approach should parents take?
A) Be supportive and understanding.
B) Be realistic and lower their expectations.
C) Be encouraging and let their children stick to their old habits.
D) Be patient and hope everything will work out just fine eventually.
答案与题解：
1．B 从第一段第一句话中的"a considerable amount of their time""fruitless efforts''以及该段最后一句话中的"frittering away as much as…"可以进行同义替换，waste就是fruitless和fritter的同义词。
2．C 从第二段的最后一句话中的"added to the list rather than replacing"可以判断出，这些年轻人的电子设备是越来越多，而不是A被取而代之、8被轮流使用、D被出售或交换以便买更新的产品。
3．B 答案A是文字游戏，原文中"isolated worlds"应该理解为孤立的世界，即独自“alone”，而不是孤独“lonely”。答案C说他们变得自私和占有欲强，想买更多电子产品，显然不对。答案D说他们变得不懂礼貌和不知感恩，均是对第三段最后一句话中的“no longer greet”和“nor can they eat at the family table”的字面理解。答案B是两个近义词，重点在性格变化上，变得“若即若离，难以捉摸”。
4．D 答案A认为是态度问题，把客观问题主观化。答案B是遇到选项，试图用“remedial help”误导大家联想到remedy一词，故引出psychological professional 的曲解。答案C把第五段第一句中的“later development”和“decline in the quality of…”表象化，认为应该抓紧赶上同学（catch up）。
答案D才是正确答案，问题症结在于multitasking 难以让人集中注意力，造成浪费时间、影响表现等后果，这些前文均已提过。
5．A 答案A把praise 替换成了相对隐性的近义词。答案B只针对最后一段的第一句话，断章取义。答案C前半部分encouraging还算接近正确答案，后半部分则成了鼓励“将错就错”。答案D认为应采取"听之任之，“顺其自然”
的态度。

Spoilt for Choice
Choice, we are given to1 believe, is a right. In daily life, people
have come to expect endless situations about which they are required to make decisions one way or another. In the main2, these are just irksome moments at work which demand some extra energy or brainpower, or during lunch breaks like choosing which type of coffee to order or indeed which coffee shop to go to.
But sometimes selecting one option as opposed to another can have serious or lifelong repercussions. More complex decision-making is then either avoided, postponed, or put into the hands of the army of professionals, lifestyle coaches, lawyers, advisors, and the like, waiting to lighten the emotional burden for a fee2． But for a good many4 people in the world, in rich and poor countries，choice is a luxury, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, created by companies and advertisers wanting to sell their wares5．
The main impact of endless choice in people's lives is anxiety. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of consumer goods induces a sense of powerlessness, even paralysis, in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away6or just buying an unsuitable item that is not really wanted in order to solve the problem and reduce the unease．Recent surveys in the United Kingdom have shown that a sizeable proportion of electrical goods bought per household are not really needed．The advertisers and the shareholders of the manufacturers are, nonetheless, satisfied.
It is not just their availability that is the problem, but the speed with which new versions of products come on the market. Advances in design and production mean that new items are almost ready by the time that goods hit the shelves7．Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The classic example is computers, which are almost obsolete once they are bought. At first, there were only one or two available from a limited number of manufacturers, but now there are many companies all with not only their own products but different versions of the same machine．This makes selection a problem．Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing8: no choice, no anxiety.
The plethora of choice is. not limited to consumer items. With the greater mobilitv of people around the world, people have more choice about where they want to live and work--a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, nations migrated across huge swathes of the earth in search of food, adventure, and more hospitable environments. Whole nations crossed continents and changed the face of history. So the mobility of people is nothing new. The creation of nation states and borders9effectively slowed this process down. but what is different now is the speed at which migration is happening.

4．a good many：也可说a great many， (用来强调所指数量)非常多的。 5．And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices，the whole system is merely an illusion，created by companies and advertisers wanting to sell their wares．对那些自认为行使选择权的人来说，这整个体制不过是销售商和广告商为了卖货而制造出的人来说，这整个体制不过是销售商和广告商为了卖货而造出的一种幻觉而已。exercise one’s right 行使权力。
6. Easy access to a wide range of consumer goods induces a sense of powerlessness, even paralysis, in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away.购物更便捷，商品更丰富，但这却让很多人感到不知所措，甚至麻痹，最后只好放弃挑选，一走了之。access to…获得的渠道。

A) More choice，more anxiety．
B) Better more choice than no choice．
C) Better no choice than more choice．
D) All choice is not easy．
答案与题解：
1．B根据文章第一句话，这两种选择都是权利，所以A不对，选项C本身没错但文中丝毫未提及，选项D有可能发生，但不是绝对的。选项B符合But sometimes selecting one option as opposed to another can have serious or lifelong repercussions 的意思。
2．D第二段第三句提到了A、B、C三个选项，只有D没提到，这正是本题答案。3．A第三段都是在讲商家为了销售更多的商品，不断推出新产品，老百姓不知不觉更换地更勤，所以一个商品的使用寿命就更短了。
4．C其它三个选项都不是新的特点，最后一段第三句话都有涉及。
5．A整篇文章都是在论述现代商品社会人们虽然选择更多了，但焦虑感也多了。其它三个选项文中都有提及，但不能代表作者整体的态度。

The empty stretch of interstate gives way to urban congestion2, and Coyne hits the brakes as a pedestrian suddenly crosses the street in front of him. But even if he hadn’t stopped in time, the woman would have been safe. She isn’t real. Neither is the town. And Coyne isn’t really driving. Coyne is demonstrating a computerized driving simulator that is helping researchers at Old Dominion University3 (ODU) examine how in-vehicle guidance systems affect the person behind the wheel.4 The researchers want to know if such systems, which give audible or written directions, are too distracting — or whether any distractions are offset5 by the benefits drivers get from having help finding their way in unfamiliar locations.6 “We are looking at the performance and mental workload of drivers,” said Caryl Baldwin, the assistant psychology professor lending the research, which involves measuring drivers reaction time and brain activity as they respond to auditory and visual cues7. The researchers just completed a study of the mental workload8 involved in driving through different kinds of environments and heavy

2016职称英语教材-卫生类C级完形填空及参考译文1 第一篇Better Control of TB Seen If a Faster Cure Is Found The World Health Organization1 estimates that about one-third of all people are infected with bacteria that cause tuberculosis . Most times, the infection remains inactive. But each year about eight million people develop active cases of TB, usually in their lungs. Two million people die of it. The disease has increased with the spread of AIDS and drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis. Current treatments take at least six months. People have to take a combination of several antibiotic drugs daily. But many people stop as soon as they feel better. Doing that can lead to an infection that resists treatment. Public health experts agree that a faster-acting cure for tuberculosis would be more effective. Now a study estimates just how effective it might be. A professor of international health at Harvard University2 led the study. Joshua Salomon says a shorter treatment program would likely mean not just more patients cured. It would also mean fewer infectious patients who can pass on their infection to others. The researchers developed a mathematical model to examine the effects of a two-month treatment plan. They tested the model with current TB conditions in Southeast Asia. The scientists found that a two-month treatment could prevent about twenty percent of new cases. And it might prevent about twenty-five percent of TB deaths. The model shows that these reductions would take place between two thousand twelve and two thousand thirty. That is, if a faster cure is developed and in wide use by two thousand twelve. The World Health Organization reductions the DOTS3 program in nineteen ninety. DOTS is Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course. Health workers watch tuberculosis patients take their daily pills to make sure they continue treatment. Earlier this year, an international partnership of organizations announced a plan to expand the DOTS program. The ten-year plan also aims to finance research into new TB drugs. The four most common drugs used now are more than forty years old. The Global Alliance for TB Drug Development4 says its long-term goal is a treatment that could work in as few as ten doses. 1.找到速效治疗剂可以更好控制结核病 世界卫生组织估计全球有大约三分之一的人感染了导致结核病的病菌。大多数时候，这种感染是不活跃的。但是每年大约有八百万结核病病例，通常是在肺部。两百万人因此丧命。结核病发病率由于艾滋病的传播和抗药型结核病的出现而增加。目前的治疗至少需要六个月。患病者不得不每日服用多种抗生素药品。许多人在稍感舒适后就停止使用药品，这么做可能导致抗药性感染。公共卫生专家一致认为针对结核病的速效治疗剂将会更加有效果。现在有一项研究评估这种速效治疗剂究竟效力有多大。这项研究由美国哈佛大学国际卫生方面的教授率领。Joshua Salomon说，疗程较短的治疗计划可能不仅仅意味着更多病人被治好，也意味着将感染传给别人的病人会更少。 研究者们设计了一个数学模型来检测两个月治疗计划的效果。他们以东南亚目前的结核病情况来检验这个模型。科学家们发现两个月的治疗可以防止大约20％的新病例，也可能防止大约5％因结核病引起的死亡。这个模型表明，如果速效治疗剂可以在2012年前研发出来并大规模使用的话，减少结核病例在2012年到2030年间就可以实现。 世界卫生组织在1990年制定了DOTS计划，DOTS意指短期直接观察治疗。卫生工作者监督结核病人每天服药，以确信他们继续治疗。今年年初，一个国际组织同盟宣布了一项扩大DOTS的计划。这个十年计划也旨在资助新结核药品的研究。现在四种最常用的药品也有四十多年的历史了。全球结核病药物开发联盟宣称它的长期目标是找到一种治疗方法，可以通过十次剂量就效果。

(英语)高三英语阅读理解解析版汇编
（英语）高三英语阅读理解解析版汇编 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 In America, parents tend to encourage their children to develop their potential (潜能) to the fullest extent. Fathers and mothers frequently teach their children both ambition and the confidence necessary to work toward their goals. American parents are always active in concentrating on what their kids can do, not what they can't. As a result, millions of American boys and girls grow up hoping to become actors and athletes, diplomats and doctors. Many of them even want to become president. American parents often encourage their children to become involved in extra activities of all types at school, such as student government, sports and music. They believe that only through taking part in these activities can their children become mature young adults. As we all know, school work is important. But parents should realize that the social skills their children learn from natural conversations with each other are as important as schoolwork and the skills they will need in the future work. What's more important in their work is that their children should have a sound knowledge of physics or the ability to communicate effectively. As a rule, Chinese parents don't educate their children about the same kind of ambition and confidence as Americans do, nor do they encourage the same level of participation in extra activities. Children are typically advised to study hard and pass exams. They have to spend a lot of time in doing much schoolwork every day. It is a great waste of time to do so. Now more and more Chinese parents have recognized that they should pay attention to developing the potential of their children. I hope that leaders in Chinese educational circles should take some measures to develop the potential of their children. I am very confident about it. （1）From the passage, we know the American parents pay much more attention to . A. the social skills than Chinese parents B. their children's studying hard and well C. what their children want but they can't D. extra activities than schoolwork （2）According to the passage, Chinese parents . A. know more than American parents to educate their children B. owning ambition and confidence is necessary and important C. pay much more attention to their children's fine future D. don't encourage their children to participate in extra activities （3）From the passage, we can infer . A. American children are brave and adventurous B. American children are more active in their studies C. Chinese children have the ability to communicate effectively D. something should be done to develop the potential of the children in China （4）What's the writer's attitude towards Chinese education reform? A. Neutral. B. Indifferent. C. Positive. D. Negative. 【答案】（1）A

高三英语阅读理解(带详解)
I watched from a distance as the homeless man quarreled with those who did not leave money for him – the majority. I walked up to him and right on queue he asked me for a quarter. ―I’ll give you a quarter if you tell me your story.‖ He laughed, ―You’ll give me a quarter for my story?‖ I lay the quarter in front of him and corrected myself –―Nah, here’s the quarter but it would be nice to hear your story.‖ I followed his eyes to the quarter and for a brief moment I saw a glimmer of reflection. I sat down next to him and waited. ―I was in the army,‖ he said. ―I was a sniper(狙击手)and was supposed to shoot down the enemy from the distance.‖ I listened carefully to his grizzly voice as he went deeper into the story. He wore dirty old torn clothes and smelled like a dead rat left in a mouse trap. He told me how he used to hunt with his family and was really good at it. He had his own way of respecting animals by not wasting what he killed for food and not killing more than he needed. When the army came knocking on his door, he felt pride and joined up. All those years of polishing his hunting skills could now serve a larger purpose—to defend us from the bad guys. He set out to fight in Iraq. It wasn’t long before he realized his ideals and expectations were just a shadow of the truth. He became disillusioned with the killings, which he felt were of innocent people. ―I was a sniper but I never really killed anyone,‖ he said. ―One day I had to do it. They asked me to shoot this lady from the distance. I saw kids near that lady and my hands were on the trigger (扳机). Man, I was tearing up ... I couldn’t do it. She wasn’t doing anything to anyone and she was with the kids—I couldn’t see through my tears. It just didn’t make any sense to me.‖ The story goes on as he describes eventually being put into prison for 180 days for refusing to follow orders. He told me how he was black listed so that he couldn’t get a job. All the rights we take for granted were taken away from him. Why? Here was a man who was being punished—and for what? For refusing to kill the lady? For being a hero? ―I have no regrets,‖ the homeless man said. ―I may be homeless now, but I never killed that lady. I never killed anyone in the army. It didn’t feel right. I didn’t go there to do that. I went there to save people.‖ He continued, ―I can live with being homeless—that’s okay. But I wouldn’t be able to live with killing innocent people.‖ On that lonely Friday night, I met a hero. It just never occurred to me that a hero could be a smelly old man left on streets. 1. It can be learned from the passage that the homeless man_______. （） A. never killed animals B. had a strong respect for life C. deserved the punishment he received D. felt guilty about disobeying the order

职称英语补全短文第3课时1 PASSAGE 8 Einstein Named "Person of Century" Albert Einstein，whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel the secrets of the atom and of the universe，was chosen as "Person of the Century" by Time magazine on Sunday. A man whose very name is synonymous with scientific genius，Einstein has come to represent_（1）_the flowering of 20th century scientific thought that set the stage for the age of technology. "The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic，but technological-technologies_（2）_，" wrote theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking in a Time essay explaining Einstein's significance.
