2.阅读理解(题目数量：1 总分：15.0)

1. Some people have it easy. When their kids ask them what they do at work, they can give a simple, direct answer: “I put out fires”or “I fix sick people”or “I teach primary school”. As a theoretical physicist, I nerve had this luck. Society has come to expect many things from the physicists. It used to be that we only had to discover the basic laws of the world and supply the techniques that would power the next Silicon Valley.With these expectations we were fairly comfortable: they are the sorts of things we think we know how to do. What makes us uncomfortable-and what makes it hard for us to tell our kids what we’re up to –is that in this century we have become ,though unwillingly, gurus on questions such as “What is that nature of Reality？”

We now deal with a whole new class of problem. We ask how the world began and what the nature of matter is. The answers we are coming up with are just not easy to comprehend for the average person.

So，when physicists get out of their cars in the morning, have a cup of coffee and sit down in front of their computers, they leave a familiar world and enter a place where things act In

strange ways that are impossible for ordinary people to understand.

1. People used to say, “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world ”and “Behind every successful man there’s a woman.” of these sayings mean the same thing. Men rule the world, but their wives rule them.

Most of the American women like their husbands and sons successful, some of them want more for themselves. They want jobs. When they work, they want to be better paid. They want to be as successful as . The American women’s liberation movement was started by women who don’t want to stand behind successful men. They want to stand men, with the same chance for success. They don’t want to be told that certain jobs or offices are closed to them. They refuse to work side by side with men who do the same work for pay.

A liberated woman must be of being a woman and believe in herself. If somebody says to her, “You’ve come a long way, baby,”she’ll smile and answer, “not nearly as as I’m going to go, baby!”

The movement is quite new, and many American women do not agree. But it has already made some important changes in women’s --in men’s lives, too.

5.简答题(题目数量：2 总分：20.0)

1. A lawyer friend of mine has devoted herself to the service of humanity. Her special area is called“public interest law”. Many other lawyers serve only clients who can pay high fees. All lawyers have had expensive and highly specialized

training, and they work long, difficult hours for the money they get. But what happens to people who need legal help and cannot pay these lawyers' fees? Public interest lawyers fill this need. Patricia, like other public interest lawyers, gets less money than some lawyers, because she is willing to take less money. Her clients have the help they need, even if they can pay nothing at all. Some clients need legal help because stores have cheated them with bad goods. Others are in unsafe houses. Their cases are called“civil”cases. Still others are criminals, and they go to those public interest lawyers who are in charge of“criminal”cases.These are just a few of the many situations in which the men and women who are public interest lawyers serve to extend justice throughout our society.

Does a public interest lawyer earn more money, why or why not?

Please give some examples about civil cases and criminal cases.

答案:1. Patricia, like other public interest lawyers, gets less money than some lawyers, because she is willing to take less money.

2.Others are in unsafe houses. Their cases are called“civil”cases. Still others are criminals, and they go to those public interest lawyers who are in charge of“criminal”cases.

2. A major new development in system of work in Britain is taking place. Flexible working hours, or “Flextime”, are catching on fast, and trend is continuing. In 1973, over 500 organizations had adopted the idea, and by 1974, this number had risen to over 200,000. Flexible working hours were invented in Germany in the late 1960’s, but reached Britain only in 1972. The system allows workers to start and finish work whenever they want, with only two requirements. These are, firstly, that all workers must present for certain “key”times in the day, and secondly, that all workers must work an agreed total number of hours per week. The system had proved a total success wherever it has been tried. A survey of 700 workers on flexible hours showed three main advantages: a better balance between working and private life, avoidance of the need to travel during rush hours and the ability to finish a certain task before leaving. From the employer’s point of view, the system tends to increase productivity, reduce labour turnover and give workers a greater sense of duty.

What do workers need to do according to Flextime system? What advantages does flextime have?

答案:1.These are, firstly, that all workers must present for certain “key”times in the day, and secondly, that all workers must work an agreed total number of hours per week.

2.A better balance between working and private life, avoidance of the need to travel during rush hours and the ability to finish a certain task before leaving.
