The worlds poorest people-many of whom live in developing areas of Africa, Asia, Latin America. and Eastern E

7、urope-struggle daily for food, shelter, and other necessities. They often suffer from severe malnutrition(营养不良), infectious disease outbreaks, famine, and war. In wealthier countries-such as the United States, Canada, Japan, and those in Western Europe-the effects of poverty may include poor nutriti

8、on, mental illness, drug dependence, crime, and high rates of disease.Extreme poverty, which threatens peoples health or lives, is also known as destitution or absolute poverty. Relative poverty is the condition of having fewer resources or less income than others within a society or county, or comp

9、ared to worldwide averages.The reasons for poverty are not clear. Some people believe that poverty results from a lack of adequate resources on a global level-resources such as land, food, and building materials-that are necessary for the well-being or survival of the worlds people. Other see povert

10、y as an effect of the uneven distribution Of resources around the world on an international or even regional scale.

16、 These include provider practices such as medical offices and clinics, hospitals and nursing homes.There are about 200,000 medical offices, clinics, and other provider practices in the United States. Earlier in the 20th century most physicians were single people working in their own offices or in pa

17、rtnership with another doctor. Patients visited the office, received an examination or other service, and paid a fee. This traditional fee-for-service medicine has been declining. Many physicians now practice in groups where they share the same offices and equipment with other doctors. Group practic

18、es may combine primary care physicians, several kinds of specialists, laboratories, and equipment for diagnosing disease. Physicians who practice in a group reduce their own expenses and provide patients with a wider range of services.Many doctors are joining with hospitals, insurance companies, and

19、 industrial employers to provide managed care for groups of patients. These plans manage to avoid unnecessary services and reduce costs. Rather than taking a fee from each patient, managed care physicians may receive an annual salary from a fixed sum for each patient.Patients who are too sick for ca

20、re in a doctors office go to a hospital. Hospitals offer Patients 24-hour care from a staff of health professionals. They provide services not available elsewhere, such as major surgery, child birth, and intensive care for the critically ill. Hospital care is the most expensive form of health care.

21、Efforts to control health care costs have emphasized reducing the number of patients admitted to hospitals and their length of stay. During the 1980s and 1990s, these efforts led to the closing of more than 600 hospitals.Patients who need long-term medical care because of advanced age or chronic ill

22、ness may stay in a nursing home.

27、g timeD.constant九、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Although the United States has been shaped by continual waves of immigrants, Americans have often viewed immigration as a problem. Established Americans often look down on new immigrants. Despite such tensions, economic needs have always forced Americans to

28、seek immigrants as laborers and settlers, and economic opportunities have appealed to foreigners. The vast majority of immigrants to the United States have come in search of jobs and the chance to create a better life for themselves and their families.In all of American history, less than 10 percent

29、 of immigrants have come for political or religious reasons.Economic immigrants from Europe, Asia, and Latin America have come to the United States voluntarily. Others, most African Americans, were involuntarily transported to North America to do forced labor or to be sold as slaves. Regardless of t

30、he reasons they come to the United States, new immigrants typically work in labor-intensive, low-paying, and dangerous jobs-occupations that most other Americans avoid.Although immigrants are expected to absorb the beliefs and standards of the dominant society, most immigrant groups try to maintain

31、their own cultural tradition, language, and religious practices. Some groups, such as the Huguenots (French Protestants) who immigrated during the colonial period, assimilated (同化)within one or two generations. Others, such as the German and Irish immigrants of the 19th century, still maintain some

32、aspects of their traditional cultures.Traditionally the United States has been described as a melting pot, a place where the previous identities of each immigrant group are melted down to create an integrated, uniform society.（分数：5.00）(1).From the article we can induce（分数：1.00）A.the United States is

But the traditional methods a

39、nd products of the fine arts all have things in common. For one thing they have “design“. Design can be with sounds, with stones, with words, with building materials, with lines, and paint. A work of fine art is designed. And within that design, the creator uses “rhythm“. “balance“ , and “harmony.Rh

40、ythm comes from the more or less regular repetition of similar sounds, colors, shapes, and movements. Balance is the arrangement of: what the artist works with so that the result seems right to us. And harmony is putting things together that seem to belong together. These, of course, are only rough

43、00)An airplane flies because its wings push down on the air flowing past them, and in reaction, the air pushes up on the wings. When an airplane is level or rising, the front edges of its wings ride higher than the rear edges. The angle the wings make with the horizontal is called the angle of attac

44、k. As the wings move through the air, this angle causes them to push air flowing under them downward. A sleeper angle of attack will cause the wings to push more air downward. The third law of motion voiced by English physicist Isaac Newton states that every action produces an equal and opposite rea

45、ction. In this case, the wings pushing air downward is the action, and the air pushing the wings upward is the reaction. This causes lift, the upward force on the plane, Lift is often explained using Bernoullis principle, which states that, in some circumstances, a faster moving fluid(流体) (such as a

46、ir)will have a lower pressure than a slower moving fluid. The air on the top of an airplane wing is at a lower pressure than the air underneath the wing, but this is an effect of lift, not its cause.Lift is one of the four primary forces acting upon an airplane. The others are weight, thrust, and dr

47、ag. Weight is the force that offsets lilt. because it acts in the opposite direction. The weight of the airplane must be overcome by the lift produced by the wings, if an airplane weighs 4.5 metric tons, then the lift produced by its wings must be greater than 4.5 metric tons in order for the airpla

48、ne to leave the ground. Designing a wing that is powerful enough to lift an airplane off the ground, and yet efficient enough to fly at high speeds over extremely long distances, is one of the marvels of aircraft technology.（分数：5.00）(1).What does the article tell us about?（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_(2).What is the role of the angle of attack?（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_(3).What are forces acting upon an airplane?（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_(4).What is the cause of “Lift“?（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_(5).In the last sentence “
