One of the best examples of a public good is national defense.One person can benefit from our national defense without reducing another persons benefits.In fact, it is difficult to keep any person in our society from enjoying the benefits of national defense.The market system does not work well in producing public goods.This is because a person who refuses to pay for a publicgood can not be kept from using it.Suppose that the neighbors in a high crime area decide to hire a police force. Each neighbor, except Mrs. Smith, agrees to pay $100 a year for it.Mrs. Smith refuses to pay because she knows that if all the others pay the $100, the police will guard the area anyway.So Mrs. Smith can enjoy the services of the police force without paying $100. The market system has no way to deal with this type of problem.For this reason, we can not ask each person to make a direct payment in the form. of product price.Therefore, we collect money for public goods by using taxes.1、According to the passage, public goods are______.A.services enjoyed by all peopleB.what we can buy and sell in publicC.products that we make for national defenseD.taxes paid by the people involved2、The writer gives the example of national defense in paragraph2 in order to show that______.A.there will be no safety if there is no national defenseB.all the people should be responsible for national defenseC.a public good is a shared benefit for the whole societyD.some public goods are more important than others3、The person who does not pay for a public good______.A.keeps himself from using its benefitB.cannot enjoy its benefit at any timeC.fails to keep its benefit from being usedD.enjoys its benefit all the same4、In the third paragraph the author explains______.A.what role the market system plays in producing public goodsB.how weak the market system is in producing public goodsC.why some people refuse to pay for public goodsD.what we can do to make use of the market system5、From the passage we learn that the purpose of collecting taxes is to______.A.ensure the continuous supply of public goodsB.reduce the difference between the rich and the poorC.get extra money to support public goodsD.remind people of their duty四、阅读理解二Accidents are caused; they dont just happen. The reason may be easy to sec: an overloaded tray, a shell out of reach, a patchof ice on the road. But more often than that there is a chain of events leading up to the misfortune—frustration, tiredness or just bad temper—that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.Road accidents, for example, happen frequently after a family quarrel and we all know people who are accident-prone, so often at odds with themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.By definition, an accident is something you cannot predict or avoid, and the idea which used to be current, that the majority of road accidents are caused by a minority of criminally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that most accidents involve ordinary motorists in a moment of carelessness or thoughtlessness.It is not always clear, either, what sort of conditions make people more likely to have an accident. For instance, the law requires all factories to take safety precautions and most companies have safety committees to make sure the regulations are observed, but still, every day in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are absent from work due to an accident. These accidents are largely the result of human error or misjudgment—noise and fatigue, boredom or worry are possiblefactors which contribute to this. Doctors who work in factories have found that those who drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety level, run three times the normal risk of accidents at work.1、This passage might be taken from___________A.a text bookB.a science fictionC.a popular magazineD.a report of a manufacturer2、"Accident-prone" here (in Para.2) means ______.A.liable to have accidentsB.injured in accidentsC.likely to die in accidentsD.responsible for road accidents3、The passage suggests that ______.A.accidents mostly result from slippery roadsB.accidents are usually caused by psychological factorsC.doctors run three times the normal risk of accidents in factoriesD.about 50,000 people lose their lives at work in Britainevery day4、Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor of accidents in this passage?A.Mood.B.Tiredness.C.Carelessness.D.Weather.5、Which do you think would be the best title for the passage?A.Accidents and AnxietyB.How Accidents Are CausedC.Human Factors in AccidentsD.How to Prevent Accidents on Roads and in Factories五、英译汉Translation from English to Chinese1、 It"s incredible that he made world-class fashion models out of these ambitious girls within only two years.A.令人难以置信的是，他仅在两年内就从这些雄心勃勃的女孩子中选择出人选参与世界级时装模特赛。

You should make the correct choice and mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Finding a good work-at-home job is not easy. Although you see all the online advertising, there aren’t that many of them. Those that are available may require that you live in a certain areaor spend at least some time in the office. Others man be only part-time jobs.Keep in mind that the skills needed for home employment are similar to those needed for working in an office. You’ll also need a home office with a high speed internet connection, phone, fax, computer, printer, and other basic office equipment.To get started, consider your job search as your job. Spend as many hours per week on your job search as you would spend working. If you’re looking for full-time work, you should be spending full-time hours seeking a job.Networking ( ⼈际联系)remains the top way to find a job and it does work. Develop contacts—friends, family, even the other job seekers—anyone who might have the information you need. You can take a direct approach and ask for job information or try a less formal approach and ask for information and advice. Contact everyone you know and tell them you want to work from home. You may be surprised by the people they know and the job information they can provide.36. According to the first paragraph, it is not easy to find good work-at-home jobs because__________.A. they are seldom advertised online or in newspapersB. they may require that you live in a certain placeC. you are always asked to work full-timeD. you need to have a college degree37. Compared with those needed for working in an office, the skills for working at homeare_________.A. much easierB. totally differentC. almost the sameD. more challenging38. To find a good work-at-home job, you are advised to_________.A. create a website of your ownB. contact as many companies as you canC. Try your best to look for full- time employmentD. spend as much time as possible on your job search39. According to the passage, the best way to find a work-at-home job is_________.A. through networkingB. by personal visitsC. by online applicationD. through e-mailing40. The passage is mainly about __________.A. How to build a work-at-home officeB. How to look for a work-at-home jobC. the equipment needed for home workingD. the skills required for working from homeTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.Running your small business requires good staff. Once you find them, you don’t want to let them go elsewhere.During an employee’s time with a company, there are a number of forces that influence his or her behavior. I like to refer to them as “push”and “pull”. You’re either pushing an employee towards the door, or pulling them deeper into your organization.Suppose that you’ve made a good hire and you want to keep the employees, the trick is to recognize individual needs of employees and satisfy those needs, within reason, on order to keep pulling them away from the door. Even if you can’t pull them away from the door, at least don’t do things to push them out the door.Recognize that some employees will lose interest and need something fresh to keep their interest. If you can’t continually provide challenges, opportunities for promotion and other interesting and rewarding opportunities, then you’ll have some employees leave through no fault of your own,The important thing is to identify your key employees and make certain they are being treated well. Communicate with them on a regular basis to make certain that you understand what makes them behave in a particular way, and be aware of concerns they may have about job satisfaction.41. The author uses the word “push”to mean the force that _______.A. makes employees satisfied with their workB. drives employees to work more efficientlyC. causes employees to leave their companyD. keep employees to remain in their company42. To keep your employees, you are advised to _______.A. recognize and meet their needsB. identify and overcome their faultsC. offer them a salary as high as possibleD. provide them with a better working condition43. According to the passage, when is it possible for some employees to lose interest ?A. they have no rewarding opportunities.B. The company is located in a remote area.C.
