8、e vast. In 1993, the average American had an income of about $25,000. In the same year, the average Mexican earned $7,000, and the average Nigerian earned $1,500. Not surprisingly, this large variation in average income is reflected in various measures of the quality of life. Changes in living stand

9、ards over time are also large. In the United States, incomes have historically grown about 2 percent per year (after adjusting for changes in the cost of living). At this rate, average income doubles every 35 years. In some countries, economic growth has been even more rapid. In Japan, for instance,

10、 average income has doubled in the past 20 years, and in South Korea it has doubled in the past 10 years. What explains these large differences in living standards among countries and over time? The answer is surprisingly simple Almost all variation in living standards is attributable to differences

11、 in countries productivity that is, the amount of goods and services produced from each hour of a workers time. In nations where workem can produce a large quantity of goods and services per unit of time, most people enjoy a high standard of living; in nations where workers are less productive, most

12、 people must endure a more meager existence. Similarly, the growth rate of a nations productivity determines the growth rate of its average income. The fundamental relationship between productivity and living standards is simple, but its implications are far-reaching. If productivity is the primary

13、determinant of living standards, uther explanations must be of secondary importance. For example, people might think that labor unions or minimum-wage laws contributed to the rise in living standards of American workers over the past century. Yet the real hero of American workers is their rising pro

14、ductivity. The relationship between productivity and living standards also has great implications for public policy. When thinking about how any policy will affect living standards, the key question is how it will affect our ability to produce goods and services. To improve living standards, policym

15、akers need to raise productivity by ensuring that workers are well educated, have the tools needed to produce goods and services, and have access to the best available technology. 11 Which of the following countries has enjoyed the fastest economic growth in history?

20、h in one interview. “They sold the colored people. And they were bringing them from Africa. They brought me from Africa. I was a child“. The Library of Congress released the collection of recordings, Voices from the Days of Slavey, in January. The recorrdings were made between 1932 and 1975. Speakin

21、g at least 60 years after their emancipation(解放 ), the story teller discuss their experiences as slaves. They also tell about their lives as free men and women. Isom Moseley was just a boy at the time of emancipation, but he recalls that things were slow to change. “It was a year before the folks kn

22、owed they was free“, he says. Michael Taft, the head of the librarys archive of folk culture, says the recordings reveal something that written stores cannot. “The power of hearing someone speak is so much greater than reading something from the page“, Taft says. “Its how something is said the diale

27、about the growing threat of globalization, accompanied by those warnings that the rich pattern of local life is being undermined, and many dialects and traditions are becoming extinct. But stop and think for a moment about the many positive aspects that globalization is bringing. Read on and you are

28、 bound to feel comforted, ready to face the global future, which is surely inevitable now. Consider the Internet, that prime example of our shrinking world. Leaving aside the all-to-familiar worries about pornography and political extremism, even the most narrow-minded must, admit that the net offer

29、s immeasurable benefits, not just in terms of education, the sector for which it was originally designed, but more importantly on a global level, the spread of news and comment. It will be increasingly difficult for politicians to maintain their regimes of misinformation, as the oppressed will not o

30、nly find support and comfort, but also be able to organize themselves more effectively. MTV is another global provider that is often criticized for imposing popular calture on the unsuspecting millions around the world. Yet the viewers judgement on MTV is undoultedly positive; it is regarded as in-

31、dispensable by most of the global teenage generation who watch it, a vital part of growing up. And in the final analysis, what harm can a few songs and videos cause? Is the world dominance of brands like Nike and Coca-Cola so bad for us when all is said and done? Sportswear and soft drinks are harml

32、ess products when compared to the many other things that have been globally available for a longer period of time heroin and cocaine, for example. In any case, just because Nike shoes and Coke cans are for sale, it doesnt mean you have to buy them even globalization cannot deprive the individnal of

33、his free will. Critics of globalization can stop issning their doom and gloom statements. Life goes on, and has more to offer for many citizens of the world than it did for their parents generatiorn. 21 Some people feel sad about globalization because they believe it will _. ( A) bring throat to the

34、 world peace ( B) impact the diversified local life ( C) disrupt their present easy lifestyle ( D) increase the size of people speaking dialects 22 Internet was originally designed _.

37、le think artists are weird and the weirdest may be this: artists only job is to explore emotions, and yet they choose to focus on the ones that feel bad. This wasnt always so. The earliest forms of art, like painting and music, are those best suited for ex- pressing ioy. But somewhere in the 19th ce

38、ntury, more artists began seeing happiness as insipid, phony or, worst of all, boring as we went from Wordsworths daffodils to Baudelaires flowers of evil. You could argue that art became more skeptical of happiness because modern times have seen such misery. But its not as if earlier times didnt kn

39、ow perpetual war, disaster and the massacre of innocents. The reason, in fact, may be just the opposite: there is too much damn happiness in the world today. After all, what is the one modern form of expression almost completely dedicated to depicting happiness? Advertising. The rise of anti-happy a

40、rt almost exactly tracks the emergence of mass media, and with it, a commercial culture in which happiness is not just an ideal but an ideology. People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery. They worked until exhausted, lived with few protections and died young. In the West, before

41、mass communication and literacy, the most powerful mass medium was the church, which reminded worshippers that their souls were in peril and that they would someday be meat for worms. Given all this, they did not exactly need their art to be a bummer too. Today the messages your average Westerner is

42、 bombarded with are not religious but commercial, and forever happy. Fast-food eaters, news anchors, text messengers, all smiling, smiling. Our magazines feature beaming celebrities and happy families in perfect homes. And since these messages have an agenda to lure us to open our wallets to make th

43、e very idea of happiness seem unreliable. “Celebrate!“ commanded the ads for the arthritis drug Celebrex, before we found out it could increase the risk of heart attacks. What we forget what our economy depends on is forgetting is that happiness is more than pleasure without pain. The things that br

44、ing the greatest joy carry the greatest potential for loss and disappointment. Today, surrounded by promises of easy happiness, we need someone to tell us as religion once did, Memento mori: remember that you wiI1 die, that everything ends, and that happiness comes not in denying this but in living

45、with it. Its a message even more bitter than a clove cigarette, yet, somehow, a breath of fresh air. 26 By citing the example of poets Wordsworth and Baudelaire, the author intends to show that _. ( A) Poetry is not as expressive of joy as painting or music. ( B) Art grow out of both positive and ne

46、gative feeling. ( C) Poets today are less skeptical of happiness. ( D) Artist have changed their focus of interest. 27 The word “bummer“(Line 4, Paragraph 5) most probably means something _. ( A) religious ( B) unpleasant ( C) entertaining ( D) commercial 28 In the anthors opinion, advertising_. ( A

47、) emerges in the wake of the anti-happy part ( B) is a cause of disappointment for the general peer ( C) replace the church as a major source of information ( D) creates an illusion of happiness rather than happiness itself 29 We can learn from the last paragraph that the author believes _.
