29、icially introduced at the beginning of 1999 within what is now the European Union.The idea of a single currency(货币)had been on the agenda since at least 1970,but it was only at the Maastricht summit meeting in 1992 that agreement was reached on a detailed timetable for monetary(货币的)union,and that a

30、set of five special economic requirements for membership were established.At the Maastricht summit,Britain negotiated an opt-out clause(决定不参加的条款)which allowed Britain to stay out of the single currency at the beginning and only join if and when it wished to do so.At the time of writing,the majority

31、of public opinion and a significant number of politicians are still opposed to British membership,and no date has been fixed for a vote by the people.In Italy,on the other hand,a belief in the absolute necessity of being part of the monetary union was always shared by all the main political parties

32、and by public opinion at large.The difficulty was that,when the Maastricht requirements were first laid out,Italys economy clearly failed to meet all but one of them.All the following Italian governments therefore made it their priority to carry out the economic and fiscal(财政的)reforms necessary to f

33、ulfill the requirements.根据上面文章内容，从每题下面四个选项中选出一个最合适的答案，并在答题纸上把选的编 号字母涂黑。31.The idea of a single currency in the European Union was realized in _.A.late 1970 B.early 1992 C.1999 D.early 1999 32.At the Maastricht Summit meeting,_.A.Britain joined the European monetary union B.Britain was allowed to joi

38、ust what a spoiled child is,how spoiling occurs,and what the consequences of spoiling are.Many mothers of 1820 struggled to uphold the ideas about child raising that had been prevalent(流行的)in the eighteenth century.They had always been told that the spoiled child stood in danger of having trouble la

39、ter in life when exposed to all the temptations of the world and,more important,stood in danger of spiritual ruin.At first,the only approach these mothers knew was to“break the will”of the child.This approach,coming initially from the theory of Calvin was inherited from the stern outlook of the Puri

40、tans(清教徒).As one mother wrote,“No child has ever been known,since the earliest period of the world,who does not have an evil nature,no matter how sweet it appears.”The childs impulse could be controlled only by breaking the will so that the child submitted to parental guidance.In 1843,a mother descr

42、 hours until the child finally obeyed.Parents often reported that after one such trial of“will”,the child became permanently submissive(顺从的).In passing,we can note that knowledge about a childs“No”period might have moderated the disciplining of little children and the application of the proverb“Spar

43、e the rod and spoil the child.”By freeing the child from its evil nature,parents believed they could then guide the child into acquiring the right character traits,such as honesty,industriousness,and self-control.These moral principles,fixed in the childs character,were to govern it throughout life,
