Paage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following paage.About forty years ago, only five percent of American children who were three or four years old attended early education programs.Today, about two-thirds of the children of that age go to preschools, nursery schools or daycare centers with educational programs.Many education experts say this is a good situation.They say young children who have some kind of preschool education do much better when they attend school.Young children in preschool programs learn colors and numbers.They identify common objects and letters of the alphabet to prepare them for reading.They sing and play games that use numbers and maps.They learn to cooperate with teachers and other children.Many preschool programs include activities to help young children learn about the world around them.For example, children visit places like zoos, museums and fire and police stations.After preschool, most American children attend kindergarten in public schools.Most children start kindergarten at about age five.Many American kindergartens now require skills taught in early education programs.So children who have not attended a preschool program may not be ready for kindergarten.Many families, however, lack enough money to send their children to private nursery schools or preschools.Such schools may cost several thousand dollars a year, as much as a public university.To help poor families, the government operates an education program for young children called Head Start.Studies have shown that many children from poor families do not do well in school.Studies also have shown that children in Head Start programs perform equally well or better than other children when they start school.But the government currently is providing Head Start with enough money to serve only about sixty percent of the children who need this program.Educators have expreed concern that some early childhood education programs are not good enough.The United States has about eighty-thousand preschools, nursery schools and daycare centers.The National Aociation for the Education of Young Children studies these schools.The aociation says it has approved only about ten percent of the preschools in the country.Experts say American children need more and better preschool education.21.In preschools.young children can learn about the world around them by.A.visiting various places

B.singing songs and playing games

C.identifying common objects and letters

Paage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following paage.One of the chief causes of fatigue（疲倦）is boredom.To illustrate this point, let's take the case of Alice, a corporate employee who lives on your street.Alice came home one night completely exhausted.She acted fatigued.She was fatigued.She had a headache.She had a backache.She was so exhausted that she wanted to go to bed without waiting for dinner.Persuaded by her mother.she sat down at the table.The telephone rang.The boyfriend!An invitation to a dance!Her eyes sparkled.Her spirits soared.She rushed upstairs, put on her Alice-blue gown，dashed out and danced until three o'clock in the morning;and when she finally did get home, she was not the slightest bit exhausted.She was，in fact，so excited that she couldn't fall asleep.Was Alice really and honestly tired eight hours earlier.when she looked and acted exhausted? Sure，she was.She was exhausted because she was bored with her work, perhaps bored with life.There are millions of Alices.You may be one of them.It is a well-known fact that your emotional attitude usually has far more to do with producing fatigue than has physical exertion.A few years ago, Joseph E.Barmack, Ph.D., published in the Archives of Psychology a report of some of his experiments, showing how boredom produces fatigue.Dr.Barmack put a group of students through a series of tests in which, he knew, they could have little interest.The result? The students felt tired and sleepy，complained of headaches and eyestrain, felt irritable.In some cases，even their stomachs were upset.Was it all “imagination”? No.Metabolism（新陈代谢）tests were taken of these students.These tests showed that the blood preure of the body and the consumption of oxygen actually decrease when people are bored，and that the whole metabolism picks up immediately as soon as they begin to feel interest and pleasure in their work!

Paage Three

Questions 3lto 35 are based on the following paage.There will be a major shift in the age distribution in the American workforce.As the baby boomers（born between 1946 and 1963）begin to hit retirement age, they will be replaced by the so-called“generation Y”or“Millennial Generation.”who number almost 80 million.And the qualified workers of this generation are soon going to be desperately needed, leaving businees no choice but to figure out how to attract and keep them.People often say that members of the “Millennial Generation”can’t take care of themselves and are going to bring the world down with them.Some people might think Millennials are spoiled internet addicts（上瘾者）who feel a strong sense of entitlement and aren’t willing to work hard for the great rewards they expect.In reality Millennials are the first generation of “digital natives,”that is,they have never known a world without digital technology.As a result Millennials experience the world through technology,as older generations experience the world through their organic senses.This intimacy（亲密接触）with the digital world is one of the Millennials’greatest strengths.It also presents the greatest challenge to those companies that need highly qualified applicants.Managers need to determine ways to use their strengths and work with their weaknees with busine goals in mind.The key to attracting and managing Millennials is to create an experience of the company that matches their technological experience of the world.It’s about finding a balance between youthful enthusinasm,cooperative spirit, and the realities of the busine world.The busine world is experiencing a continued breakdown of the authoritarian management style that in some ways still remains as legacy（遗留做法）from the early 20th century.Managers are going to have to be patient and flexible to a large extent because one thing is for sure, nothing makes Millennials unhappier than doing tasks with traditional methods that can be done better and more efficiently with the right technology or more sophisticated methods.They need to be given the opportunity to use the technologies they are familiar with to cooperate with each other and do busine.The best candidates are going to be attracted to companies that are willing to give employees what they need and want.31.American businees will be in great need of qualified workers of the“Millennial Generation” because.A.the baby boomers in the workforce are close to retirement

B.this generation accounts for the biggest part of the workforce

C.businees want to change the age distribution in the workforce

D.businees prefer young workforce to speed up their development 32.People have formed a impreion of the Millennial Generation.A.true

B.vague

C.favorable

D.negative 33.Compared with previous generations, Millennials.A.use more of their organic senses

B.show a poor sense of entitlement

C.rely more on information technology

D.challenge the goals of the businees 34.To attract and manage Millennials, a busine manager should.A.require them to do their tasks with traditional methods

B.force them to work with modem scientific technologies

C.balance their paion, teamwork spirit and busine realities

D.combine sophisticated methods with flexible working approaches 35.The main idea of the paage could be best summarized as.A.busine managers should take up the challenges from Millennials

B.busine managers should be flexible about their management style

C.managers maintain a relatively objective attitude toward Millennials

D.Millennials can use their technological advantage to attract companies
