17、nnyWe are not who we think we are.The American self-image is spread with the golden glow of opportunity. We think of the United States as a land of unlimited possibility, not so much a classless society but as a place where class is mutable-a place where brains, energy and ambition are what count, n

18、ot the circumstances of ones birth.The Economic Mobility Project, an ambitious research led by Pew Charitable Trusts, looked at the economic fortunes of a large group of families over time, comparing the income of parents in the late 1960s with the income of their children in the late 1990s and earl

19、y 2000s. Here is the finding: The rags to riches story is much more common in Hollywood than on Main Street. Only 6 percent of children born to parents with family income at the very bottom move to the top.That is right, just 6 percent of children born to parents who ranked in the bottom of the stud

20、y sample, in terms of income, were able to bootstrap their way into the top. Meanwhile, an incredible 42 percent of children born into that lowest are still stuck at the bottom, having been unable to climb a single rung of the income ladder.It is noted that even in Britaina nation we think of as bur

21、dened with a hidebound （守 旧的）class system-children who are born poor have a better chance of moving up. When the studies were released, most reporters focused on the finding that African-Americans born to middle-class or upper middle-class families are earning slightly less, in inflation-adjusted do

22、llars, than did their parents.One of the studies indicates, in fact, that most of the financial gains white families have made in the past three decades can be attributed to the entry of white women into the labor force. This is much less true for African-Americans.The picture that emerges from all

23、the correlations and percentages is of a nation in which, over all, “the current generation of adults is better off than the previous one”, as one of the studies notes.The median income of the families in the sample group was $55,600 in the late 1960s; their childrens median family income was measur

24、ed at $71,900. However, this rising ride has not lifted all boats equally. The rich have seen far greater income gains than the poor.Even more troubling is that our nation of America as the land of opportunity gets little supper: from the data. Americans move fairly easily up and down the middle run

America: Not Land of Opportunity for allIntegrity is the quality of being honest and strong about what you believe to be right. Th

30、e concept of integrity has played a key role in moral philosophy throughout history and is promoted in all societies because of its importance to social relations. Individual integrity is vital to society, one that enables people to make use of their capacity for critical reflection, does not force

31、people to take up particular roles and does not encourage individuals to betray each other. Besides, societies can be favorable to the development of individual integrity.Individual integrity can lift up the spirits of the entire society. It can shape the lives of people living in a particular socie

32、ty, the lives of all fellow people and, in its broadest sense, even the destiny of a nation. By contrast, if those living in the society are dishonest, it could have bad effects, jeopardizing the healthy morality of the society.Additionally, a society can be favorable to the development of individua

33、l integrity. Society expects and requires integrity. A society consisting of people of integrity, and people who never compromise on their principles, could have a positive mark on the personal development of its members. Being a part of such a morally lively community could serve as a basis for abs

34、orbing traits of good character. This could be of a distinct advantage to any individuals in the society.However, some social structures are of the wrong sort for some individuals to pursue integrity. If that is the case, we have to ask questions about the moral nature of society first before raisin

35、g questions about individual integrity. Questions about integrity may turn out to be about what kind of society it is, rather than about the relationship between individual interests and characteristics of a society. The pursuit of adequate individual integrity often depends, not so much on understa

36、nding who one is and what one believes and is committed to, but rather understanding what ones society is and imagining what it could be.Under no circumstances can we underestimate the importance of human integrity in a society. People, who are honest, trustworthy, compassionate and caring, are the

37、factors decisive in the growth of individuals as well as the development of a society.12. Individual integrity has been valued in society because.A. it helps develop philosophyB. it is important to social relationsC. it is the basis of critical thinkingD. it ensures peoples particular roles13.

39、 timesocial structures guide the formation of individual integrity14. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?CP: Central point P: Point Sp: Sub-point C: Conclusion二、七选五Some futurologists have assumed that the vast increase of women in the workforce may portend （预示）a re

40、jection of marriage. 16 In the past, only the earnings and financial prospects of the man mattered in the marriage decision. Now, however, things are quite different.17 Yet, it may be wrong to jump to any simple cause-and-effect conclusions. The impact of a wifes work on divorce is actually as much

41、as its impact on marriage decisions. The realization that she can be a good provider may increase the chances that a working wife will choose divorce over an unsatisfactory marriage.But what is on the contrary is equally reasonable. 18 Given high unemployment and slow growth in real earnings, a work

42、ing wife can relieve some of the household urgent financial burdens, thus strengthening her familys financial and emotional stability.Psychological factors also should be considered. For example, a wife blocked from a career outside the home may feel caged in the house.On the other hand, if shecan f

43、ind fulfillment or self-satisfaction through work outside the home, work and marriage can go together to create a stronger and more stable union.Another fact contributes to womens inequality in marriage lies in the fact that in most 试卷第6页，共10页cases, men have remained the main breadwinners. With high

44、er earning capacity outside of the home comes the capacity to exercise power within the family. 20In conclusion, whatever is said, the impact of the growing female workforce on marriage actually varies from case to case, a stronger equal partnership or some new insecurities.A. The opposite of this c

45、oncern could encourage marriages.B. She may view her only choice as seeking a divorce.C. A working wife may rob a husband of being the master of the house.D. Many women, according to this assumption, would rather work than marryAs the economy rebounds, the number of marriages also rise.E. The increa

46、se in divorce rates is due to the increase in female workforce.F. Tensions caused by financial problems often play a key role in ending a marriage.三、完形填空Having repeatedly heard “good manners”，do you really understand what the basic elements of good manners are? Certainly, a strong sense of justice i

47、s one一(from this angle) politeness is often 21 but a highly developed sense of fair play. A friend of mine once told me of him22 along a one-lane dirt road. 23 was another car thatproduced clouds of choking 24, and it was a long way to the nearest highway.Suddenly, at a25-place, the car in front pul

49、 mind or heart of someone else, to 30 the pain or suffering there andto do something to minimize it.
