The_28_of such ideals, without the tempering of the reality of a job or profession, rapidly leads adolescents to become _29_ of the non-idealistic world and to press for reform in a characteristically adolescent way. Piaget said: “True adaptation to society comes_30_when the adolescent reformer attempts to put his ideas to work. ”Of course, youthful idealism is often courageous, and no one likes to give up dreams. Perhaps, taken_31_out of context, Piagets statement seems harsh. What he was_32_，however, is the way reality can modify idealistic views. Some people refer to such modification as maturity. Piaget argued that attaining and accepting a vocation is one of the best ways to modify idealized views and to mature.As careers and vocations become less available during times of _33_, adolescents may be especially hard hit. Such difficult economic times may leave many adolescents_34_about their roles in society. For this reason, community interventions and government job programs that offer summer and vacation work are not only economically_35_but also help to stimulate the adolescents sense of worth.A)automatically                     I)incidentallyB)beneficial                                       J)intolerantC)capturing                      K)occupationD)confused                      L)promisesE)emphasizing                 M)recessionF)entrance                      N)slightlyG)excited                       O)undertakesH)existence【选词填空参照答案】26.  O) undertakes27.  K) occupation28.  H ) existence29.  J) intolerant30.  A) automatically31.  N) slightly32.  E) emphasizing33.  M) recession34.  D) confused35.  B) beneficialSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Can societies be rich and green?A“If our economies are to flourish, if global poverty is to be eliminated and if the well-being of the worlds people enhancednot just in this generation but in succeeding generationswe must make sure we take care of the natural environment and resources on which our economic activity depends. ”That statement comes not, as you might imagine, from a stereotypical tree-hugging, save-the-world greenie(环境保护主义者), but from Gordon Brown, a politician with a reputation for rigor, thoroughness and above all, caution.BA surprising thing for the man who runs one of the worlds most powerful economies to say? Perhaps;though in the run-up to the five-year review of the Millennium(千年旳)Goals, he is far from alone. The roots of his speech, given in March at the roundtable meeting of environment and energy ministers from the G20 group of nations, stretch back to 1972, and the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm.C“The protection and improvement of the human environment is a major issue which affects the well-being of peoples and economic development throughout the world, ”read the final declaration from this gathering, the first of a sequence which would lead to the Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992 and the World Development Summit in Johannesburg three years ago.DHunt through the reports prepared by UN agencies and development groupsmany for conferences such as this years Millennium Goals reviewand you will find that the linkage between environmental protection and economic progress is a common thread.EManaging ecosystems sustainably is more profitable than exploiting them, according to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. But finding hard evidence to support the thesis is not so easy. Thoughts turn first to some sort of global statistic, some indicator which would rate the wealth of nations in both economic and environmental terms and show a relationship between the two.FIf such an indicator exists, it is well hidden. And on reflection, this is not surprising; the single word “environment” has so many dimensions, and there are so many other factors affecting wealthsuch as the oil depositsthat teasing out a simple economy-environment relationship would be almost impossible.GThe Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, a vast four-year global study which reported its initial conclusions earlier this year, found reasons to believe that managing ecosystems sustainablyworking with
