You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1The economy of the United States after 1952 was the economy of a well-fed, almost

9、 fully employed people. Despite occasional alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a state of boom. An economic survey of the year 1955, a typical year of the 1950s, may be typical as illustrating the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was valued at 10 p

10、ercent above that of 1954 (1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufacturers was about 40 percent more than it had averaged in the years immediately following World War II. The countrys business spent about 30 billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National

11、 income available for spending was almost a third greater than it had been in 1950. Consumers spent about 256 billion dollars; that is about 700 million dollars a day or about twenty-five million dollars every hour, all round the clock. Sixty-five million people held jobs and only a little more than

12、 two million wanted jobs but could not find them. Only agriculture complained that it was not sharing in the boom. To some observers this was an ominous echo of the mid 1920s. As farmers share of their products declined, marketing costs rose. But there were, among the observers of the national econo

13、my, a few who were not as confident as the majority. Those few seemed to fear that the boom could not last and would eventually lead to the opposite - depression.11. What is the best title of the passage? C A. The Agricultural Trends of 1950s B. The Unemployment Rate of 1950s C. U.S. Economy in the

14、1950s D. The Federal Budget of 195212. In Line 3, the word “boom” could best be replaced by_D_. A. nearby explosion B. thunderous noise C. general public support D. rapid economic growth13.

16、ter in 1955 than in 1950. How much was it? C A. 60 B. 50 C. 33D. 90Passage 2What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably qu

17、iet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colors preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tells us, among ot

18、her facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow upwe are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.Colors do influence our moodsthere is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most p

19、eople feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area, unti

20、l it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better,

21、 harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.16. “You would rather follow than lead” means _B_.
