Each of these deals replaces the morals of the queue (waiting your turn) with themorals of the market (paying a price for faster service)。Markets and queuespaying and waiting-are two different ways of allocating things, andeach is appropriate to different activities. The morals of the queue, “First come, first served," havean egalitarian (平等主义的) appeal。 They tell us to ignore privilege, power, and deep pockets。The principle seems right on playgrounds and at bus stops。 But the morals of thequeue do notgovern all occasions. If I put my house up for sale, I have no duty toaccept the first offer thatcomes along, simply because its the first. Selling myhouse and waiting for a bus are differentactivities, properly governed by differentstandards。Sometimes standards change, and it is unclear which principle should apply。 Think of therecorded message you hear, played over and over, as you wait on hold when calling your bank:“Your call will be answered in the order in which it was received." This is essential for the moralsof the queue. Its as if the company is trying to ease our impatience with fairness。But dont take the recorded message too seriously。 Today, some peoples calls are answeredfaster than others。 Call center technology enables companies to “score” incoming calls and to givefaster service to those that come from rich places. You might call this telephonic queue jumping。Of course, markets and queues are not the only ways of allocating things。 Somegoods wedistribute by merit, others by need, still others by chance. However, the tendency of markets toreplace queues, and other nonmarket ways of allocating goods is socommon in modern life that wescarcely notice it anymore. It is striking that most of the paid queuejumping schemes we'veconsidered-at airports and amusement parks, in callcenters, doctors offices, and national parksarerecent developments, scarcelyimaginable three decades ago. The disappearance of the queues in theseplaces may seem an unusual concern, but these are not the only places that markets have entered。58. According to the author, which of the following seems governed by the principle“First come,first served”?A. Taking buses. B. Buying houses。C。 Flying with an airline. D. Visiting amusement parks。59。 The example of the recorded message in Paragraphs 4 and 5 illustrates _.A. the necessity of patience in queuing B。 the advantage of modern technologyC. the uncertainty of allocation principle D. the fairness of telephonic services60. The passage is meant to _.A。 justify paying for faster services B. discuss the morals of allocating thingsC. analyze the reason for standing in line D. criticize the behavior of queue jumpingCIf a diver surfaces too quickly, he may suffer the bends。Nitrogen (氮) dissolved (溶解) in his blood is suddenly liberated bythe reduction of pressure。 The consequence, if the bubbles (气泡)accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent bodythus the name.If the bubbles form in his lungs or his brain, the consequence can bedeath.Other airbreathing animals also suffer this decompression (减压) sickness if they surface too fast: whales, for example。 And so, long ago, did ichthyosaurs. That these ancient sea animals got the bends can beseen from theirbones. If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply.This kills thecells in the bone, and consequently weakens it,sometimes to the point of collapse。 Fossil (化石)bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends。Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study ofichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past. What he particularlywanted to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150million years。 To this end, he and his colleagues traveled the worlds natural-history museums,looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic period and from the later Jurassic andCretaceous periods.When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils,reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonishedto discover the opposite。 More than 15 of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered thebends before they died, but not a single Triassic specimen (标本) showed evidence of that sort ofinjury.If ichthyosaurs did evolve an antidecompression means, they clearly did so quickly-and,most strangely, they lost it afterwards。 But that is not what Dr Rothschild thinks happened。 Hesuspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change。Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape apredator(捕食动物) such as a large shark。 One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of largesharks and crocodiles, both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches. Triassic oceans, by contrast,were mercifully shark- and crocodile-free。 In the Triassic, then, ichthyosaurs were topof the foodchain。 In the Jurassic and Cretaceous, they were prey (猎物) as well as predatorand often had tomake a speedy exit as a result.61。 Which of the following is a typical symptom of the bends?A. A twisted body。B. A gradual decrease in blood supply.C。 A sudden release of nitrogen in blood。D。 A drop in blood pressure。62. The purpose of Rothschilds study is to see _。A。 how often ichthyosaurs caught the bendsB。 how ichthyosaurs adapted to decompressionC. why ichthyosaurs bent their bodiesD。 when ichthyosaurs broke their bones63. Rothschilds finding stated in Paragraph 4 _。A。 confirmed his assumption B. speeded up his research processC. disagreed with his assumption D. changed his research objectives64. Rothschild might have concluded that ichthyosaurs _.A. failed to evolve an antidecompression meansB. gradually developed measures against the bendsC。 died out because of large sharks and crocodilesD. evolved an antidecompression means but soon lost itDMark Twain has been called the inventor of the American novel。 And he surely deserves additional praise: the man who popularized the clever literary attack on racism.I say clever because anti-slavery fiction had been the important part of theliterature in theyears before the Civil War. H。 B. Stowes Uncle Toms Cabin is only the most famous example。These early stories dealt directly with slavery. With minor exceptions, Twain planted his attacks onslavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely. He drew hisreaders into the argument by drawing them into the story.Again and again, in the postwar years, Twain seemed forced to deal with the challenge of race。Consider the most controversial, at least today, of Twain's novels, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn。Only a few books have been kicked off the shelves as often as Huckleberry Finn, Twains mostwidely read tale。 Once upon a time, people hated the book because it struck them as rude。 Twainhimself wrote that those who banned the book considered the novel “trash and suitable only for theslums (贫民窟)." More recently the book has been attacked because of the character Jim, theescaped slave, and many occurences of the word nigger. (The term Nigger Jim, for which the novelis often severely criticized, never appears in it。)But the attacks were and are sillyand
