Of the Sunday papers, the Observer and the Sunday Times are the best known. It is a regrettable fact that the number of magazines o

17、 Trade Unions 1 Some scholars have associated trade unions with the medieval craft guilds(中世纪的行会 ), but there are important differences between the two. The guild members were master craftsmen who owned capital and often employed workers. Unions are known as associations of workers with similar skil

18、ls. 2 In the past, individual workers had no control over the conditions of their working lives; political and economic power was concentrated in the hands of wealthy business owners. Workers found, however, that there was strength in uniting. From their earliest years, union objectives have been hi

19、gher wages and improved working conditions. 3 Employers resisted, of course. They made great efforts to stop union organizing its activities. Union members were fired, workers were forced to sign contracts in which they promised not to join a union, and companies hired strikebreakers (罢工破坏者 ) and ev

20、en gunmen to frighten organizers. 4 One of the earliest successful labor organizations in the United States was the Knights of Labor, founded in 1869. The Knights, which included both skilled and unskilled workers, attempted to organize all workers into one great union. After it successfully struck

21、the Wabash railroad owned by Jay Gould in 1885, its popularity and power grew dramatically. In 1886 the Knights had 700,000 members. 5 The decline of the Knights of Labor, however, came quickly. The strike against Gould was gradually broken, and the Knights radical positions on social issues cost th

22、em public support. In the end, a lack of unity as well as the rapid inflow of unskilled immigrants weakened the unions economic power, and the organization came to an end. 23 A Managements Reaction to the Labor Movement B The Decline of an Early Union C Reasons for Starting a Union D Comparison betw

25、bject to diseases of various kinds. It has been estimated that some 30,000 different diseases attack our economic plants; forty are known to attack com, and about as many attack wheat. The results of unchecked plant disease are all too obvious in countries which have marginal food supplies. The prob

26、lem will soon be more widespread as the population of the world increases at its frightening rate. Even in countries which are now amply fed by their agricultural products there could soon be critical food shortages. It is easy to imagine the consequences of some disastrous attack on one of the majo

27、r crops; the resulting famines could kill millions of people, and the resulting hardship on other millions could cause political upheavals disastrous to the order of the world. Some plants have relative immunity to a great many diseases, while others have a susceptibility to them. The tolerance of a

28、 particular plant changes as the growing conditions change. A blight may be but a local infection easily controlled; on the other hand it can attack particular plants in a whole region or nation. An example is the blight which killed virtually every chestnut tree in North America. Another is the fam

29、ous potato blight in Ireland in the last century. As a result of that, it was estimated that one million people died of starvation and related ailments. Plant pathologists have made remarkable strides in identifying the pathogens of the various diseases. Bacteria may invade a plant through an infest

30、ation of insect parasites carrying the pathogen. A plant can also be inoculated by man. Other diseases might be caused by fungus which attacks the plant in the form of a mold or smut or rust. Frequently such a primary infection8 will weaken the plant so that a secondary infection may result from9 it

31、s lack of tolerance. The symptoms shown may cause an error in diagnosis, so that treatment may be directed toward bacteria which could be the result of a susceptibility caused by a primary virus infection. 31 How many diseases are known to attack wheat? （ A） Around 30,000. （ B） Around 140. （ C） Arou

32、nd 29,960. （ D） Around 40. 32 According to this passage, which of the following would a plant disease result in if left unchecked? （ A） A world war. （ B） Border conflicts. （ C） Rations of grain and meat. （ D） Social upheavals. 33 What is the main idea of the second paragraph? （ A） Some plants have r

33、elative immunity to a great many diseases, while others have a susceptibility to them. （ B） The tolerance of a particular plant changes as the growing conditions change. （ C） A blight killed virtually every chestnut tree in North America. （ D） A blight may be a national infection. 34 According to th

34、e passage, some plant diseases can be prevented by （ A） killing parasites. （ B） inoculation. （ C） killing insects. （ D） improving growing conditions. 35 Which of the following statements is not true? （ A） Some plant diseases may be caused by bacteria. （ B） Some plant diseases may be caused by pathog

35、ens. （ C） Some plant diseases may be caused by fungus. （ D） Symptoms are always helpful in identifying diseases. 36 Obesity Obesity refers to the medical condition characterized by storage of excess body fat. The human body naturally stores fat tissue under the skin and around organs and joints. Fat

36、 is critical for good health because it is a source of energy when the body lacks the energy necessary to sustain life processes, and it provides insulation and protection for internal organs. But too much fat in the body is associated with a variety of health problems. Most physicians use the body

37、mass index (BMI) to determine desirable weights. BMI is calculated as weight divided by height and people with a BMI of 27 or above are considered obese. Weight-height tables, such as those published by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, are also used as general measures of desirable weight ra

38、nges3. These tables assign a range of weights for a particular height. For example, a man of 1.8 m has a desirable range of 66 to 83 kg, with an average of 75 kg. A woman who is 1.6 m has a desirable range between 53 and 70 kg, with an average of 62 kg. The BMI and weight-height tables only provide

39、rough estimates of desirable weights and scientists recognize that many other factors besides height affect weight. Weight alone may not be an indicator of fat, as in the case of a body-builder who may have a high BMI because of a high percentage of muscle tissue, which weighs more than fat. Likewis

40、e, a person with a sedentary lifestyle may be within a desirable weight range but have excess fat tissue. Obesity increases the risk of developing disease. According to some estimates, almost 70 percent of heart disease cases are linked to excess body fat, and obese people are more than twice as lik

41、ely to develop high blood pressure. Obese women are at nearly twice the risk for developing breast cancer, and all obese people have an estimated 42 percent higher chance of developing colon cancer. The risk of medical complications, particularly heart disease, increases when body fat is distributed

42、 around the waist, especially in the abdomen. This type of upper body fat distribution is more common in men than in women. The social and psychological problems experienced by obese people are also formidable. Stereotypes about “fat“ people are often translated into discriminatory practices in educ

43、ation, employment, and social relationships. The consequences of being obese in a world where people had better be “thin“ are especially severe for women, whose appearances are often judged against an ideal of exaggerated slimness. 36 What is obesity? （ A） Obesity is having fat tissue under the skin

44、. （ B） Obesity is having fat tissue around organs. （ C） Obesity is being too fat. （ D） Obesity is having good health. 37 If we say that “fat is critical for good health,“ we mean that （ A） fat people should be criticized. （ B） fat is very important for people to keep healthy. （ C） people should be f

45、at if they want to be healthy. （ D） having much fat in the body is certainly associated with health problems. 38 If a woman is 1.6m tall and weighs 49 kg, she （ A） is considered within the desirable weight-height range. （ B） is definitely unhealthy. （ C） should be considered fat. （ D） should not be

46、considered unhealthy. 39 A heavy man （ A） certainly has a lot of fat in him. （ B） usually has a sedentary-lifestyle. （ C） certainly has a lot muscle in him. （ D） may have muscle tissue that weighs more than fat. 40 According to this article, fat people may be （ A） looked down upon by others. （ B） we

47、lcomed by others. （ C） considered severely ill. （ D） thought of having special problems. 41 Silent and Deadly Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), or ministrokes, result from temporary interruptions of blood flow to the brain. Unlike full strokes, they present symptoms lasting anywhere from a few seco

48、nds to 24 hours. Rarely do they cause permanent neurological damage, but they are often precursors of a major stroke. “Our message is quite clear,“ says Dr. Robert Adams, professor of neurology at-the Medical College of Georgia in August. “TIAs, while less severe than strokes in the short term, are

49、quite dangerous and need a quick diagnosis and treatment as well as appropriate follow-up to prevent future injury.“ Unfortunately, ministrokes are greatly underdiagnosed. A study conducted for the National Stroke Association indicates that 2.5% of all adults aged 18 or older (about 4.9 million people in the U. S.) have experienced a confirmed TIA4. An additional 1.2 million Americans over the age of 45, the study showed, have most
