29、 (存在) strategy. American social scientists have generally agreed that families everywhere fulfill four crucial social 42._ : (a) reproduction of new members, (b) child care, (c) socialization of children to values, traditions, and norms of the society, and (d) intimacy and support for members. Altho

30、ugh we can define the family 43._ its functions, the emphasis given to each of them varies widely both geographically and 44._ . For example, in nineteenth-century America, people married mainly to have children. Today, emotional support among family members has now become the dominant function of t

31、he family, and the family has become an economic unit for consumption rather than for 45._.In recent years, social scientists have discovered important 46._in family types, such as the single-parent family and the nuclear family fixed within a network of kin(亲戚). American families also 47._ accordin

Social class also influences the amount of stress a marriage is likely to undergo and the way parents raise t

33、heir children. 49._, the extent to which American families now differ by 50._appears to be much less than it was fifty years ago.The American family has been 51._ in a number of ways over the past few decades.

34、t all. These social changes have 52._ diverse household patterns, including single-person households and childless couples. Role changes are also occurring as both partners pursue 53._ and share family responsibilities. Many innovative family arrangements are attempts to enhance the commitment of ma

35、rriage while increasing individual freedom and fulfillment.

39、tion BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The Hawthorne exper

40、iment was conducted in the late 1920s and early 1930s. The management of Western Electrics Hawthorne plant, located near Chicago, wanted to find out if environmental factors, such as lighting, could affect workers productivity and morale. A team of social scientists experimented with a small group o

41、f employees who were set apart from their coworkers. The environmental conditions of this groups work area were controlled, and the subjects themselves were closely observed. To the great surprise of the researchers, the productivity of these workers increased in response to any change in their envi

42、ronmental conditions. The rate of work increased even when the changes (such as a sharp decrease in the level of light in the workplace) seemed unlikely to have such an effect.It was concluded that the presence of the observers had caused the workers in the experimental group to feel special. As a r

43、esult, the employees came to know and trust one another, and they developed a strong belief in the importance of their job. The researchers believed that this, not the changes in the work environment, accounted for the increased productivity.A later reanalysis of the study data challenged the Hawtho

44、rne conclusions on the grounds that the changes in patterns of human relations, considered so important by the original researchers, were never measured. However, even if the original conclusions must be revised, they nonetheless raise a problem for social scientists: Research subjects who know they

45、 are being studied can change their behavior. Throughout the social sciences, this phenomenon hascome to be called the Hawthorne effect.56. The author implies that a sharp decrease in light increased workers output because _.A. the workers experienced less eyestrain in a dark working placeB. the wor

46、kers had to pay more attention to what they were doingC. the workers knew they were being observed, and this motivated themD. the workers in the experiment were paid more than other workers57. The pattern of organization of the second paragraph is_ A. list of items B. time orderC. definition and example D. cause and effect58. The Hawthorne experiment suggests that_A. workers attitudes are more important than their environmentB. social scientists are good workersC. productivity in electric plants tends to be lowD. even those who were not i
