[主观题]

Every nation has a set of rules either written or unwritten, which determines how people a

ct with each other. Formal written rules are often laws and they control how we drive operate a business, or run a government. Individuals who disobey laws may be fined or put in jail. Because illegal behavior. generally harms other individuals or societies at large. Our court system must punish people who don't obey these formal rules.

Informal rules, often called "manners", describe correct and incorrect behavior. in such situations as eating in a restaurant, going on a date, or working in an office. If one is impolite or misbehaves in these situations, other people often consider offender insensitive. And although we can strongly disagree to such misconduct, we can no legally punish someone for simply being inconsiderate or unpleasant.

Neither laws nor manners are inflexible; both changes as society develops. For example, in the early twentieth century, the selling of strong spirits was forbidden. This law, however, had to be changed because the government found it impossible to force people to drink only soft drinks. More recently, many people who were dissatisfied with the unequals between the rights of men and women worked to pass the equal rights law, as women became more independent and took on new roles, a new law was considered necessary to reflect that change.

According to the passage, people who offended the law may be ______.

A．put to death

B．put on afire

C．doing fine

D．put into prison

The U. S. Army Infantry (步兵), which calls Fort Benning home, has fought in every major conflict involving the nation's military. Yet developing a program for effective infantry training came neither quickly nor easily. The first movement to shape the country's foot soldiers into a superior force came more than 200 years ago at the request of the general who became the first president of the United States.

Revolutionary forces commanded by General George Washington were barely surviving as they camped at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, during the winter of 1777. Washington realized that his soldiers, shivering in rags. Needed better training if there were to be any hope of winning against the well-schooled British army. He sought advice from the respected Prussian (普鲁士) general, Baron Fredreich von Steuben.

Von Steuben agreed to help, but recognized the huge challenge he faced to change the loose band of rebels into a disciplined, well-organized force. As one observer at the time noted, the colonial army "was the finest body of troops he had ever seen out of step '. Von 8teuben's own assessment was that the Continental Army was a shame. "There was no uniformity of drill, no similarity of organization , and no teamwork of any kind ", wrote Leroy Yarborough, first lieutenant (中尉) of infantry , in an unpublished 1931 history of Fort Benning. No two companies drilled alike. And they all drilled poorly.

But Von Steuben was resourceful and energetic and known for his persuasiveness. He established standard drill exercises and taught them patiently, but persistently to the troops. Once he saw progress, he chose those most skilled in military formations to demonstrate for the rest to imitate. This practice of using the best troops to model techniques and tactics become fundamental in military training, continuing long after the Revolutionary War. For his efforts, Von Steuben is known as the "Father of the U. S. Infantry."

The first two paragraphs tell us ______.

A．how Von Steuben became the general of the American infantry

B．how the revolutionary forces came to be commanded by Washington

C．how Washington set about asking von Steuben to train his soldiers

D．how poorly organized the Americans were compared to the British army

第5题

People in the United States in the nineteenth century were haunted by the prospect that un

precedented change in the nation's economy would bring social chaos. In the years following 1820, after several decades of relative stability, the economy entered a period of sustained and extremely rapid growth that continued to the end of the nineteenth century. Accompanying that growth was a structural change that featured increasing economic diversification and a gradual shift in the nation's labor force from agriculture to manufacturing and other nonagricultural pursuits.

Although the birth rate continued to, decline from its high level of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the population roughly doubled every generation during the rest of the nineteenth century. As the population grew, its makeup also changed. Massive waves of immigration brought new ethnic groups into the country. Geographic and social mobility—downward as well as upward—touched almost everyone. Local studies indicate that nearly three-quarters of the population in the North and South, in the emerging cities of the Northeast, and in the restless rural counties of the West changed their residence each decade. As a consequence, historian David Donald has written, "Social atomization affected every segment of society", and it seemed to many people that "all the recognized values of orderly civilization were gradually being eroded."

Rapid industrialization and increased geographic mobility in the nineteenth century had special implications for women because these changes tended to magnify social distinctions. As the roles men and women played in society became more rigidly defined, so did the roles they played in the home. In the context of extreme competitiveness and dizzying social change, the household lost many of its earlier functions and the home came to serve as a haven of tranquility and order. As the size of families decreased, the roles of husband and wife became more clearly differentiated than ever before. In the middle class especially, men participated in the productive economy while women ruled the home and served as the custodians of civility and culture. The intimacy of marriage that was common in earlier periods was rent, and a gulf that at times seemed unbridgeable was created between husbands and wives.

What does the passage mainly discuss？______

A．The economic development of the United States in the eighteenth century

B．Ways in which economic development led to social changes in the United States

C．Population growth in the western United States

D．The increasing availability of industrial jobs for women in the Unites States

第10题

Good morning. This is a day of remembrance for our country. And I am honored to be joi

ned at the White House today by Americans who lost so much in the terrible events of September the 11th, 2001, and have felt that loss every day since. Three years ago, the struggle of good against evil was compressed into a single morning. In the space of only 102 minutes, our country lost more citizens than were lost in the attack on Pearl Harbor. Time has passed, but the memories do not fade. We remember the images of fire, and the final calls of love, and the courage of rescuers who saw death and did not flee. We remember the cruelty of enemies who murdered the innocent, and rejoiced in our suffering. We remember the many good lives that ended too soon – which no one had the right to take. And our nation remembers the families left behind to carry a burden of sorrow. They have shown courage of their own. And with the help of God’s grace, and with support from one another, the families of terror victims have shown a strength that survives all hurt. Each of them remains in the thoughts and prayers of the American people. The terrorist attacks on September the 11th were a turning point for our nation. We saw the goals of a determined enemy: to expand the scale of their murder, and force America to retreat from the world. And our nation accepted a mission: We will defeat this enemy. The United States of America is determined to guard our homeland against future attacks. As the September the 11th Commission concluded, our country is safer than we were three years ago, but we are not yet safe. Thank you for listening.

根据以下内容回答题：Each nation has its own peculiar character which distinguishes it from

根据以下内容回答题：

Each nation has its own peculiar character which distinguishes it from others．But the peo-pies of the world have more points in common than points in which they differ．One type of per-son that is common in evcry country is the one who always tries to do as littl．e as possible and to get as much as possible in return．His opposite，the man who is in the habit of doing more than is strictly necessary and who is ready to accept what is offered in return，is rare everywhere．

Both these tyDes are usually unconscious of their character．The man who avoids effort is always talking about his“rights”：he appears to think that society owes him a pleasant，easy life．The man who tries to do as little as he Call is always full of excuses：if he has neglected to do something，it was because he had a headache，or the weather was too hot——or too cold——or because he was prevented by bad luck．At first，other people，such as his friends and his em-ployer，generously accept his stories；but soon they realize what kind of person he is．In the long run he deceives only himself．When his friends become cool towards him and he fails to make progress in his job，he is surprised and hurt．He blames everyone and everything except himseIf．He feels that society is failing in its duties towards him，and that he is being unjustly treated．

The central idea of Paragraph l is that__________ . 查看材料

A.each nation is peculiar enough to enable us to distinguish it from others
