参考答案
参考解析
解析:在第一段开始,作者就提到“越来越多的美国人过着单身生活”,紧接着讲述了“一些人过着单身生活的原因是离婚或者配偶的去世”。选项中只有C项“更多的美国人过单身生活的原因是他们选择了这种生活方式”是与此相关联的。
前面一句话说“典型的独居人群既不是老年人也不是离异者”;后面一句话说“这些人中的大部分人选择了这一生活方式”,联系上下文可知,“这些人”指的不是前面所提到的老年人或离异者,而应该是本段最后一句话中所提到的“响应减轻社会压力而不结婚和组建家庭的人”,选项中只有E项“事实上,在美国2300万个单身的人中有1/4的人不到35岁”是与此相关联的。
前面一句话说“因为人们得到了更好的工作,经济上更加独立,所以他们才有可能维持一个人生活需要的开支”,而选项中只有B项“越来越多的女士有了好的工作,她们也使得独居人口的数量增加了”是与此相关联的。
前面一句话提到了一个人David C ' Debaca,他说“一旦你独居了,就很难再与他人生活在一起。”说明他已经可惯了这种生活方式,而选项中只有F项“他说他喜欢自己生活”是与此相关联的。
最后一段的第一句话说“儿童认为,长大意味着想干什么就干什么”,而选项中只有D项“似乎今天许多大人正在实现那种儿时的梦想”是与此相关联的。

Most of us,when we reached our teens,started looking forward to the day when we would occupy places of our own,far from the confines of our families. We saw this moving away as a chance to strike out on our own,to grow,to spread out wings and experience freedom. At the same time,we regarded this independence as temporary-the thing to do until we found the perfect mate and married. Over the years,many millions of people have made this passage from one family to another,with just a brief,often nervous interval of independence in between. But recently,more and more people have begun to challenge the concept that living together is better than living alone. Being single is now accepted as an alternative lifestyle-one that is natural,rewarding,and complete. In fact,being single has become almost fashionable.

In the past, American families tended to be quite large. Parents raising five or more children were common. Over the years, the size of the family is becoming smaller. One reason for this is an increase in the cost of living.Generally children attend schools for more years than they used to, making them financially dependent on their families longer. Moreover, children nowadays are better dressed and have more money to spend on entertainment. The parents are usually responsible for all the expenses. And families are less close than they used to be. More and more American mothers work away from home. The break-up of the family appears when the parents divorce.A lot of children in the U. S. live part of their young lives with only one parent. Children grow up feeling unsettled as they are moved between their parents. Single parents often marry other single parents. In this type of family, unrelated children are forced to develop brother or sister relationship.The situations of many American families today are not good. However, recent signs show that things are getting better. The divorce rate is declining(降低). Perhaps Americans have learned how important families are.21. In the past, American families tended to be().A. quite smallB. medium sizedC. quite large22.

第一篇U. S. Blacks Hard-hit by CancerDeath rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday.In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.This could be because of unequal(不平等的)access to medical care, because blacks are more likely to have other diseases as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology(生物学)of the cancer itself, the report added."In general,black Americans have less hope of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said,"In describing cancer statistics for black Americans,this report recognizes that many of the differences associated with race may be caused by unfair social and economic differences and unequal access to medical care."The cancer society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups(体格检查) earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research is needed to see if biological differences play a role."The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of wiping out these unfair social differences through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a statement.But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates."Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have dropped greatly among black Americans since 1992,as have incidence rates(发生率),"said the report. Black Americans are more likely to die of cancer thanA:people in other countries. B:white Americans.C:all other Americans. D:their ancestors.

Marriage Advertisements in IndiaEvery Sunday morning millions of Indians settle down with a cup of tea and special weekend issues of their newspapers,just as Americans do.But here,with the marriage sea-son approaching,many of them quickly to a Sunday feature that is particularly Indian-the-columns of marriage advertisements in which young people look for husbands and wives.This is relatively modern change in the age-old custom of the arranged marriage.The thousands of advertisements published each week increasingly reflect social changes that coming to this traditional society.For example,although women are still described in terms of appearance, or skill in“the wifely arts,”information about her earning power is entering more and more of the advertisements.This reflects the arrival in India of the working wife.Divorce,which used to be almost unheard of in India,is sometimes now mentioned in the advertisements as in the case of a woman whose advertisement in New Delhi newspaper explained that had been“the innocent party” when her marriage broke up.Because the custom of the dowry(marriage payment)is now illegal,some advertise-ments say“no dowry”,or“simple marriage”,which means the same thing.However,the fathers of many bridegrooms still require it.In a land where light skin is often regarded as socially preferible,many also require that a woman have a“wheat-color” complexion or that a man be“tall,fair and handsome”.Advertisements are placed and eagerly read by a wide range of people in the upper classes,mostly in cities.Many of them receive dozens of answers.“There's nothing embarrassing about it,”explained a Calcutta businessman advertising a son-in-law.“It's just another way of broadening the contacts and increase the possibility of doing the contacts and increasing the possibilities of doing the best one for one's daughter.”Because of high unemployment and a generally poor standard of living here,one of the best attractions a marriage advertisement can offer is a permit to live abroad,especially in Canada or the United States.A person who has one can get what he wants.One recent Sunday in Madras,for example,a Punjabi engineer living in San Francisco advertised for a“beautiful slim bride with lovely features knowing music and dance.”And a man whose advertisement said that he held an American immigration permit was able to say, only girls from rich,well-connected families need apply.In India there is a high divorce rate.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

"In general,African Americans have less likelihood of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said."In describing cancer statistics for Mrican Americans,this report recognizes that socioeconomic disparities and unequal access to medical care may underlie many of the differences associated with race." The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research was needed to see if biological differences play a role."The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of eliminating these social disparities through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a statement. But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates."Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have declined substantially among African Amnericans since 1992,as have incidence rates,"said the report. "Increased efforts to improve economic conditions in combination with education about the relationship of lifestyle choices to cancer could further reduce the burden of cancer among African Americans."About 36 million Americans describe themselves as black,representing about 12 percent of the population.Carcer is more treatable if it is detected______.A:in an early stage B:together with other diseasesC:during check-ups D:in elderly people

Us Blacks Hard-hit by CancerDeath rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday. In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.This could be because of unequal access to medical care,because blacks are more likely to have other diseases like diabetes as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology of the cancer itself,the report added.
