Most of you graduating today will employees all your working life, working for somebody else and for a paycheck. And so will most, 41 not all, of the other young Americans graduating this year in all the other schools and colleges across the country.
42 has become a society of employees. A hundred years or so ago only one 43 every five Americans at work was employed, i.e., worked for someone else. Today only 20% of Americans are not employed but working for themselves. And 44 fifty years ago “being employed” means 45 as a factory laborer or as a farmhand, the employee of today is increasingly a middle-class person with a 46 formal education, holding a professional or management job requiring 47 and technical skills. 48 , two things have characterized American society during these last fifty years: the middle and upper-classes have become employees; and middle-class and upper-clss employees have been the fastest growing groups in our 49 population-growing so fast the industrial worker, that 50 child of the Industrial Revolution, has been losing in numerical importance 51 the expansion of industrial production.
This is one of the most profound social changes any country 52 . It is, however, a perhaps even 53 change for individual young man 54 to start. Whatever he does, in all 55 , he will do it as an employee; Wherever he aims, he will have to try to reach it 56 being an employee.
As an employee you work with and through other people. This means that your success as an employee will 57 on your ability to communicate with people and to present your own thoughts and ideas to them 58 they will both understand what you are driving 59 and be persuaded.

Part ⅣReading Comprehension (20 points)
Directions:
Reading the following passages, decide on the best one of the choices marked A, B, C, and D for each question or unfinished statement and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square bracket on your Machine-scoring Sheet Ⅰ.
Passage 1
Whether the eyes are “the windows of the soul” is debatable; that they are intensely important in interpersonal communication is a fact. During the first two months of a baby?s life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes. The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivated a smile, not will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented in profile. This attraction to eyes as opposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four-year-olds were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their
mother?s back, infants do not acquire as much as attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures. As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to enclose or decode meaning. In fact, Argyly reveals that “proper place to focus one?s gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one?s conversation partner.”
The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two American is well defined: speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away as they talk; in a few months they re-establish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away only briefly. It is important that they be looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker reestablishes eye contact: if they are not looking , the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversations. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational flow becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses: there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false stars, and unpredictable pause.
61. The author is convinced that the eyes are ____.
A. of extreme importance in expressing feeling and exchanging ideas
B. something through which one can see a person?s inner world
C. of considerable significance in making conversations interesting
D. something the values of which is largely a matter of long debate
62. Babies will not be stimulated to smile by a person _____.
A. Whose front view is fully perceived.
B. Whose face is covered with mask.
C. Whose face is seen from the side.
D. Whose face is free of any covering.
63. According to the passage, the Japanese fix their gaze on their conversation partner?s neck because ______.
A. they don?t like to k eep their eyes on the face of the speaker
B. they need not communicate through eye contact
C. they don?t think it polite to have eye contact
D. they didn?t have much opportunity to communicate through eye contact in babyhood
64. According to the passage, a conversation between two Americans may break down due to _______.
A. one temporarily glancing away from the other
B. eye contact of more than one second
C. improperly-timed ceasing of eye contact
D. constant adjustment of eye contact
65. To keep a conversation flowing smoothly, it is better for the participants ____.
A. not to wear dark spectacles
B. not to make any interruptions
C. not to glance away from each other
D. not to make unpredictable pause
Passage 2
There is extraordinary exposure in the United States to the risks of injury and death from motor vehicle accidents. More than 70 percent of all households own passenger cars or light trucks and each of these is driven an average of more than 11,000 miles each year. Almost one-half of fatally injured drivers have a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.1 percent or higher. For the average adult, over five ounces of 80 proof spirits would have to be consumed over a short period of time to attain these levels. A third of drivers, demonstrate these levels. Although less than 1 percent of drivers with BAC of 0.1 percent or more are involved in fatal crashes, the probability of their involvement is 27 times higher than for those without alcohol in their blood.
There are a number of different approaches to reducing injuries in which intoxication plays a role. Based on the observation that excessive consumption coorelates with the total alcohol consumption of a country?s population, it has been suggested that higher taxes on alcohol would reduce both. While the heaviest drinkers would be taxed the most, anyone who drinks at all would be penalized by this approach.
To make drinking and driving a criminal offense is an approach directed only at intoxicated drivers. In some states, the law empowers police to request breath tests of drivers cited for any traffic offense and elevated BAC can be basis for arrest. The national Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates, however, that even with increased arrests, there are about 700 violations for every arrest. At this level there is little evidence that laws serve as deterrents to drinking while intoxicated. In Britain, motor vehicle fatalities fell 25 percent immediately following implementation of the Road Safety Act in 1967. As the British increasingly recognized that they could drink and not be stopped, the effectiveness declined, although in the ensuring three years the fatality rate seldom reached that observed in the seven years prior to the Act.
Whether penalties for driving with high BAC or excessive taxation on consumption of alcoholic beverages will deter the excessive drinker responsible for most fatalities is unclear. In part, the answer depends on the extent to which those with high BACs involved in crashed are capable of controlling their intake in response to economic or penal threat. Therapeutic programs which range from individual and group counseling and psychotherapy to chemotherapy constitute another approach, but they have not diminished the proportion of accidents in which alcohol was a factor. In the few controlled trials that have been reported, there is little evidence that rehabilitation programs for those repeatedly arrested for drunken behavior have reduced either the recidivism or crash rates. Thus far, there is no firm evidence that Alcohol Safety Action Project supported programs, in which rehabilitation measures are requested by the court, have decreased recidivism or crash involvement for clients exposed to them, although knowledge and attitude have improved. One thing is clear, however, unless we deal with automobile and highway safety and reduce accidents in which alcoholic intoxication plays a role, many will continue to die.
66. The author is mainly concentrated with ______.
A. interpreting the result of surveys on traffic fatalities
B. reviewing the effectiveness of attempts to curb drunk driving
C. suggesting reasons for the prevalence of drunk driving in the United States
D. analyzing the causes of the large number of annual traffic fatalities
67. It can be inferred that the 1967 Road Safety Act in Britain ______.
A. required drivers convicted under the law to undergo rehabilitation therapy
B. made it illegal to drive while intoxicated
C. increased the number of drunk driving arrests
D. place a tax on the sale of alcoholic drinks
68. The author implies that a BACs of 0.1 percent _______
A. is unreasonably high as a definition of intoxication for purpose of driving
B. penalizes the moderate drinker while allowing the heavy drinker to consume without limit
C. is well below the BAC of most drivers who are involved in fatal collisions
D. proves that a driver has consumed five ounces of 80 proof spirits over a short time
69. The author cites the British example in order to _______
A. demonstrate the need to lower BAC levels in State that have laws against drunk drinving
B. prove that stricter enforcement of law against intoxicated drivers would reduce traffic deaths
C. prove that a slight increase in the number arrests of intoxicated drivers will not deter drunk driving
D. suggest that taxation of alcohol consumption may be more effective than criminal laws
70. The author?s tone of the end of article can be described as _____
A. ironic
B. indifferent
C. admonitory
D. indecisive
Passage 3
Reserve discrimination, minority recruitment, racial quotes, and more generally, affirmative action are phrases that carry powerful emotional charges. But why should affirmative action, of all government polices, be so controversial? In a sense, affirmative action is like other governmental programs, e.g., defense, conservation, and public schools. Affirmative action programs are designed to achieve legitimate government objectives such as improved economic efficiency, reduce social tension, and general betterment of the public welfare. While it cannot b denied that there is no guarantee that affirmative action will achieve these results, neither can it be denied that there are plausible, even powerful, sociological and economic arguments pointing to its likely success.
Government programs, however, entitle a cost, that is, the expenditure of social or economic resources. Setting aside cases in which the specific user is charged a fee for service(toll roads and tuition at state institutions), the burdens and benefits of publicly funded or mandated programs are widely shared. When an individual benefits personally from a government program, it is only because she or he is one number of a large beneficiary class, e.g., a farmer, and most government revenue is obtained through a scheme of general taxation to which all are subject.
Affirmative action programs are exceptions to this general rule, though not, as might at first seem, because the beneficiaries of the programs are specific individuals. It is still the case that those who ultimately benefit from affirmative action do so only by virtue of their status as members of a large group, a particular minority. Rather, the difference is the location of the burden. In affirmative action, the burden of “funding” the program is not shared universally, and that is inherent in the nature of the case, as can be seen clearly in the case of affirmative action in employment. Often job promotions are allocated along a single dimension, seniority, and when an employer promotes a less senior worker form a minority group, the person disadvantaged by the move is easily identified, the worker with greatest seniority on a combined minority-nonminority list passed over for promotion.
Now we are confronted with two competing moral sentiments. On the one hand, there is the idea that those who have been unfairly disadvantaged by past discriminatory practices are entitled to some kind of assistance. On the other, there is the feeling that no person ought to be deprived of
what is rightfully his or hers, even for the worthwhile service of fellow humans. In this respect, disability due to past racial discriminationm at least in so far ad there is no connection to the passed over worker, is like a natural evil. When a villainous man will fully and without provocation strikes and injuries another, there is only the feeling that the injured person ought to be compensated but there is consensus that the appropriate party to bear the cost is the one who inflicted the injury. Y et, if the someone argue that the villainous man ought to be taxed for the injury simply because he might have tripped the victim had he been given the opportunity. There may very well be agreement that he should be aided in his recovery with money and personal assistance and many will give willingly; but there is also agreement that no one individual ought to be singled out and forced to do what must ultimately be considered an act charity.
71. The passage is primarily concerned with _____.
A. comparing affirmative action programs to other government programs
B. arguing that affirmative action programs are morally justified
C. analyzing the basis for moral judgments about affirmative action programs
D. introducing the reader to the importance of affirmative action as a social issue
72. The author mentions toll roads and tuition at state institutions in order to___.
A. anticipate a possible objection based on counterexamples
B. avoid a contradiction between moral sentiments
C. provide illustrations of common government programs
D. voice doubts about the social and economic value of affirmative action
73. with which of the following statements would the author most likely agree_____.
A. Affirmative action programs should be discontinued because they place unfair burden on nonminority persons who bear the cost of the programs
B. Affirmative action programs may be able to achieve legitimate social and economic goals such as improved efficiency.
C. Affirmative action programs are justified because they are the only way of correcting injustices created by past discrimination.

Passage 4
Plato?s dialogues are artfully crafted discussions that literally lay the …function? for the philosophical tradition in Western culture. In an important sense, Plato describes for us much of who we are. He invents us in many ways. Plato represents one …face? that is similar to that which Foucault describes when he discusses how the character of …man? changes with the ebbing tides of history. Foucault specifically uses the metaphor of the face that is drawn in sand at the edge of the
sea. In Foucault?s allegory, what we conceive as being …man? today is the result of intellectual, linguistic-based inventions that took place since the European Enlightenment. As new vocabularies arise, the old one give way. Unlike the short-life of the face in the sand that Foucault describes, Plato?s …face?has been carved out of stone and has more of a …temporary permanence.? The stone is representative of a stranger cultural presence, yet it is still only stone. It rests on the side of the ocean with the daily ebb of the tide rushing over it, slowly grinding it down: the sand and the water slowly eat away at the stone, until nothing remains of its representation. When that occurs, we will be free from Plato. But that might take as many as years as it has taken to get this far. We are not in any hurry, though, we have got nothing but the rest of the time ahead of us. Plato?s philosophical edifice in Western thought is no small accomplishment; Plato should not be taken lightly. While most people today tend to treat philosophy as an irrelevant concept, philosophical ideas have had defining roles in establishing the personality and characteristics of western culture. Ideas are the engines that drive history. While human history and material progress is frequently marked by conditions of hostility and wars may be negative side of ideas, they nevertheless, distinguish, in large part, who we are as a species. Without the power of ideas, we would still be living side-by-side with the rest of the animal kingdom, a much decimated and weaker species, barely able to carry its own weight against competing species of animal who are much stronger than us in every other respect. Ideas cone first, and they are proceeded by action. Theory, however, may be different, as theory is often a Johnny-come-lately to any type of cultural excitement.
Thus, one model of history is: idea, action, theory. For example, labor organizes because of abusive working conditions, and peasant social revolt because they are oppressed; but this is not enough to enact significant social change. Organized resistance is the result of an idea about one?s self and one?s conditions, ideas about what one is as a human being. For the most part, people have to learn to resist. A necessary condition for most resistance that goes beyond immediate self-defense is that people have to see themselves by their own definitions by others. In the words of Neil Postman, …it is certainly true that he who holds the power to define is our master, but it is also true that he who holds in mind an alternative definition can never quite be his slave.? This reframing is an important function of social movements. With few exceptions, social movements are started and led by people who are educated and who have the opportunity to escape from the oppression that the larger group experiences. In rejecting this option, social movement leaders return to the communities and conditions that they successfully escaped from to teach their followers a new way of conceptualizing cultural conditions. The Black Power movement and the consciousness raising tactics of the Feminist Movement are two examples of how resistance is a …learned? activity.
76. The basic title for the passage is probably_____.
A. Foundations in the Dialogues of Plato
B. The Invention of Plato
C. The Invention of Foucault
D. The character of Man
77. The meaning of the word …face? in the first paragraph is _____.
A. front part of the head of a person
B. quality of human beings

Translate the following passage into Chinese, and write your translation text on the Answer Sheet Ⅱ.
George Orwell?s Nineteen Eighty-four was far more prescient than any person realized who grew up in the middle decades of the 20th century. It was centered on the very special technology (information technology, as well call it now) that would in fact emerge and shape the world over the next two generations: central to the success of the vast, totalitarian empire was called the telescreen, a wall-sized panel display that could simultaneously send and receive images from each individual household to a hovering Big Brother. The telescreen was what permitted the vast centralization of social lift, for it allowed the government to banish privacy by motoring every word and deed over a massive network of wires.
With at least a half century separating us from the publication of the book, we can see that while the technological predications he made were startling accurate, but the political predications were entirely wrong. As Peter Huber has argued, the personal computer, linked to the Internet, was in fact the realization of Orwell?s telescreen. But instead of becoming an instrument of centralization of access to information and the decentralization of plitics.

前辈的学者常以学问的趣味启迪后生，因为他们自己实在是得到了学问的趣味，故不惜现身说法，诱导后学，使他们也在愉快的心情之下走进学问的大门。一个人果能感觉到趣味，有时会像着了魔一般，真能废寝忘食，真能不知老之将至，苦苦钻研，锲而不舍，在学问上蔫
能不有收获？在良师指导下按部就班地循序渐进，一步步地发现新天地，当然乐在其中，如果浅尝辄止，当然味同嚼醋，自讨没趣。

Section A: 乔治.奥威尔的<<1984年>>这本书的预见性远远超出在二十世纪中期长大的人所能够达到的认识程度，因为其核心是一种后来四五十年中改变了世界的非比寻常的技术(我们今天所称的信息技术)。那个巨大的集权帝国成功的核心是一种称为荧光屏的装置。它是一面墙大小的平面显示器，可以同时在每个家庭和“老大哥”之间收发图象。政府凭借着一个巨大的网络监视人们的一言一行，从而消除了隐私。这本书出版至少半世纪后，我们可以看到书中对技术的预言惊人地准确，但政治性预言却完全错误。正如彼德.休伯所说的，与因特网相连的个人电脑就是奥威尔书中的荧光屏。但是，它不仅没有成为集权和独裁的工具，反而带来了相反的结果：信息获取权的普及化和政治上的分权。82. Section B: Scholar of the old generation often urge young people to develop interest in learning because they themselves have been enjoying the real pleasure of academic studies. And they are ever ready to cite their own example by way of advice, in hope of enabling young people to gain access to scholarship in an enjoyable way.

As more and more people become redundant, now is perhaps the time to consider the experience of unemployment. What are the first feelings? Well, losing a job, or not being able to find one, almost always brings unwelcome changes. If you?ve lost a job, the first feeling is often one of shock. As well as the loss of income, many people find the whole routine of their life is shattered, their contract with other people reduced, their ambitions halted and their identity as a worker removed. At first there may be good feeling too—a new and better job is just around the comer—it?s nice to be able to lie in
bed in the morning or spend more time with the children; have more time to think. But, unless a better job does turn up, the chances are the days start getting longer and time becomes harder to fill. Man people pass through periods of difficulty in sleeping and eating, they feel irritable and depressed, often isolated and lonely, and perhaps worst of all, a feeling of lethargy, of being dull and run sown sweeps over them. Despite all these problems though, unemployment can be a chance for a fresh start. Y ou can discover that it provides an opportunity to sort out or rethink what you want from life and how best you can get it. Y ou can use the time to plan how to find a new job, learn a new skill, develop your hobbies, see if you can run your own business, do some voluntary work in your community or meet new people. It?s up to yo u.

我的2019人大经济学考博经验，人大初试复试难度详解！ 2018-2019年的考博之路已经告一段落，自己成功考上了中国人民大学经济学院政治经济学专业的博士。记得自己是从2018年十一长假之后正式开始了我的复习考博历程，现总结人大考博札记，供日后考博人大的学弟学妹们参考。 首先说明一点，人大很公平。自己没有老师推荐，是自行联系导师，没有人脉没有关系，完全靠自己考上了人大的博士。因为本人参加了不止人大这一个学校的考试，相比其他省市的其他学校而言，人大是比较公平的。如果你的初试是第一名，人大是一定会要你的（除非有很明显的缺陷），人大非常重视初试排名，所以你的一切努力重点都应该放在初试上。 一、关于联系导师及注意事项 每个博士生导师手里的名额很有限，所以报考博士前必须先跟你要报考的老师联系，看他手里是否还有名额，一般来说导师不想要你他是不会让你报名的，事先给导师打个电话或发个E-mail（网站上一般都会有联系地址），介绍一下你
的情况。特别是你硕士阶段研究的方向和取得的成绩，并表示你愿意成为他的学生并努力学术。 首先，建议第一封e-mail主要内容是关于个人介绍：年龄、求学经历、学术成果、工作经历等，主要目的就是让导师通过这封e-mail对一个陌生的同学能够有个全面的认识和了解。 把第一印象做好，为以后的进一步联系作准备。其次，关于信的内容可以简要的谈谈自己对未来所报考导师，实验室和课题的了解和理解，让导师能够真实的感受到你的诚心、信心和决心。再次，主要是表达一下自己报考的强烈愿望，因为大家也知道好多同学联系了很多的导师和学校，最后报考的也是其中的很少几个。 联系博导需注意以下几点： 1.要了解他的基本学术观点和学术著作。以免导师提起他的著作时，我们一无所知。尽量多了解他的论著，也为以后的考试做打算。 2.多种联系方式并用。比如说第一次打电话老师记住你的名字了，第二次很可能就忘了。那我觉得还可以写e-mail，还可以写写信，传统的联系方式或许更能打动导师

Since then crude oil prices have hit record levels, with many firms responding by raising the fuel surcharge they add to ticket prices.
