课时达标(二)Unit 2 English around the worldⅠ 阅读理解Auniversities, has been systematically blocking female applicants from entering the school by lowering their entrance exam results for the past decade, local news agencies have reported.The scandal(丑闻) surfaced during the university’s investigation of another scandal, in which its former director was accused of giving admission to the son of a senior education official in exchange for a favor.Admissions records released by the school show the percentage of women who passed the entrance exam rose from 24% in 2009 to 38% in 2010. The figure has since stayed below that level, falling to 18% in 2018, when only 30 women of the 1,019 female applicants were eventually accepted.Women account for more than 40% of the overall workforce, but the share of female doctors has been stuck at about 30% since 1998. The slow progress in medicine has caused an assumption that other medical institutes probably have similar policies that discriminate against female applicants.So why is a country that is battling a shortage of doctors trying to bar qualified female candidates from getting training?It is believed that female students will eventually leave the medical profession to give birth to and raise their children. There is a silent understanding to accept more male students as one way to solve the doctor shortage.It is true that female physicians tend to leave the profession at much higher rates than male, but many disagree that keeping them out of medical school is an effective response.Yoshiko Maeda, head of the Japan Medical Women’s Association, said, “It is astonishing that women are being robbed of their right to seek entry to the medical profession. Instead of worrying about women quitting jobs, they should do more to create an environment where women can keep working.”语篇导读本文主要讲述了东京医科大学通过降低女性考生的分数从而阻止其入学的丑闻。

B(2018·全国卷Ⅰ)Languages have been com ing and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was st ill populated by huntergatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialisation, the development of the nationstate and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages; the Americas about 1,000; Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a questionmark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了全球语言多样性的发展变化以及现在所面临的危机。
