4、模拟试卷 77答案与解析 1 【正确答案】 This chart shows changes in the proportion of overweight people in the adult population of countries in four different regions in 1930, 1990 and 2000. First of all we can see that Japan had the lowest proportion of overweight adults in all three given years. It also showed the
5、smallest change across the period, rising only 1% to reach 3% by 2000. Both Finland and Australia had over 5% of adults overweight in 1980, but the increase in figures for Australia was much greater in the following decades, rising to 11% in 1990 and almost doubling Finland at 21% in 2000. However,
6、the highest proportion of overweight adults in each of the given years was in the USA. The percentage rose from 15% in 1980 to a dramatic 31% in 2000.

As more and more women in different countries get jobs outside the home, it is clear that they are able to perform jobs that were traditionally only held by men. With high levels of education, even the highes
10、t positions in science, politics or law, for example, can be held successfully by women. Therefore, those who claim that the sexes can do the same jobs equally seem to have a good point, especially in terms of intellectual work. There is also increasing scientific evidence that individual difference
11、s between people may be more important than gender differences. In other words, some women maybe physically stronger than some men, while some male individuals may be more sensitive, or more caring than some women. In my opinion, only science will be able to identify what is naturalto each gender. But in the meantime, I think that in the modern world individual men and women can be trained to develop similar abilities. Differences in aptitude and talents are greater at the individual level than at the gender level.
