16、ociety. They wanted to end the Vietnam War and to make all of the people in the U.S. equal. Some of them decided to “dropout“ of American society and form their own societies. They formed Utopia(乌托邦 ) communities, which they called “communes“, where they could follow their philosophy of “do your own
17、 thing“. A group of artists founded a commune in southern Colorado called “Drop City“. Following the ideas, of philosopher and architect Buckminster Fuller, they built houses from pieces of old cars. Other groups, such as author Ken Keseys Merry Pranksters, the followers of San Francisco poet Steve
18、Gaskin, and a group that called itself the Hog Farm, lived in old school houses and traveled around the United States. The Hog Farm became famous when they helped organize the Woodstock Rock Festival in 1969. Steve Gaskins followers tried to settle down on a farm in Tennessee, but they had to leave
19、when some members of the group were attested for growing marijuana(大麻 ). However, not all communes believed in the philosophy of “do your own thing“. Twin Oaks, a commune founded in Virginia in the late 1960s, was based on the ideas of psychologist B. F. Skinner. The people who lived at Twin Oaks we
20、re carefully controlled by Skinners “conditioning“ techniques to do things that were good for the community. In 1972, Italian architect Paolo Soleri began to build Arcosanti, a Utopian city in Arizona, where 2,500 people will live closely together in one large building called an “archeology“. Soleri
21、 believes that people must live closely together so that they will all become one. 27 In Southern Colorado, a group of artists founded a commune called _. （ A） Utopia （ B） Hog Farm （ C） Twin Oaks （ D） Drop City 28 Why did some young Americans decided to “drop out“ of society in the 1960s? （ A） They

24、 B） all communes believed in the philosophy of “do your own thing“ （ C） the dream of utopia cant come true （ D） the founders of all kinds of utopia are foolish Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 32 American cities
25、are similar to other cities around the world. In every country, cities reflect the values of the culture. Cities contain the very best aspects of a society: opportunities for education, employment, and entertainment. They also contain the very worst parts of a society: violent crime, racial conflict
26、 (种族冲突 ), and poverty. American cities are changing, just as American society is changing. After World War , city residents became wealthier, more prosperous. They had more children. They needed more space. They moved out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes. They bought houses in
27、the suburbs, areas near a city where people live. There are areas without many offices or factories. During the 1950s the American “dream“ was to have a house in the suburbs. Now things are changing. The children of the people who left the cities in 1950s are now adults. They, unlike their parents,
28、want to live in the cities. Many young professionals, doctors, lawyers, and executives (执行官，行政官 ), are moving back into the city. Many are single; others are married, but often without children. They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there; they are afraid of the fuel shortage; o
29、r they just enjoy the excitement and opportunities which the city offers. A new class is moving into the city-a wealthier, more mobile class. Only a few years ago, people thought that the older American cities were dying. Some city residents now see a bright, new future. Others see only problems and
30、 conflicts.
