Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are two passages iⅡthis part． Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements． For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D．You should decide on the best choice．Questions 56- 60 are based on Passage One:Passage OneThe law says that women should have the chance of doing the same jobs as men and earn the same as them．The reality is very different．Women lose because, 25 years after the Equal Pay Act,many of them still get paid less than men．They lose because they do lower-paid jobs which men just won't consider．And they lose because they are the ones who interrupt a career to have children．All this is reported in an independent study ordered by the Government's Women's Unite．The biggest problem isn't equal pay in workplaces such as factories．It is a sort of work women do．Make a list of the low-paid jobs, then consider who do them．Try nurses, secretaries, cleaners, clerks, teachers in primary schools, dinner ladies,and child care helpers． Not a lot of men among that group, are there?Yet some of those jobs are really important．Surely no one would deny that about nurses and teachers, for a start．So why do we reward the people who do them so poorly? There can be only one answer—because they are women．This is not going to be put right overnight． But the Government which employs a lot of them, and other bosses have to make a start．It is disgraceful(可耻的) that we have gone into the 21st century but still treat women as second-class citizens．Women should have the chance of doing the same jobs and be paid equally as Men( )．A． after 25 yearsB． according to the lawC． as a result of the Equal Pay ActD． because women are as strong as men

PartA 2. The National Association of Securities Dealers is investigating whether some brokeragehouses are inappropriately pushing individuals to borrow large sums on their housesto invest in the stock market. Can we persuade the association to investigate would-be privatizers of Social Security? For it is now apparent that the Bush administration’s privatization proposal will amount to the same thing: borrow trillions, put themoney in the stock market and hope.Privatization would begin by diverting payroll taxes, which pay for current SocialSecurity benefits, into personal investment accounts. The government wouldhave to borrow to make up the shortfall. This would sharply increase the government’s debt. “Never mind”, privatization advocates say, “in the long run, people wouldmake so much on personal accounts that the government could save money by cutting retirees’benefits.Even so, if personal investment accounts were invested in Treasury bonds,this whole process would accomplish precisely nothing. The interest workers would receive on,their accounts would exactly match the interest the government wouldhave to pay on its additional debt. To compensate for the initial borrowing,the government would have to cut future benefits so much that workers would gain nothing at all.However, privatizersclaim that these investments would make a lot ofmoney and that, in effect, the government, not the workers, would reap most of those gains,because as personal accounts grew, the government could cut benefits.We can argue at length about whether the high stock returns such schemes assume are realistic(they arent), but lets cut to the chase: in essence, such schemesinvolve having the government borrow heavily and put the money in the stock market. That’s because the government would, in effect, confiscate workers’gains in their personal accounts by cutting those workers’ benefits.Once you realize whatprivatization really means, it doesn’t sound too responsible, does it? But the details make it considerably worse. First,financial markets would, correctly, treat the reality of huge deficits today as a much moreimportant indicator of the governments fiscal health than the mere promise that government could save money bycutting benefits in the distant future. After all, a government bond is a legally bindingpromise to pay, while a benefits formula that supposedly cuts costs 40 years from now is nothingmore than a suggestion to future Congresses.If a privatization plan passed in 2005 called for steep benefit cuts in 2045,what are the odds that those cuts would really happen? Second,a system of personal accounts would pay huge brokerage fees. Of course, from Wall Street’s point of view that’s a benefit, not a cost.第26题：According to the author, “privatizers”are those_____.[A] borrowing from banks to invest in the stock market [B] who invest in Treasury bonds[C] advocating the government to borrow money from citizens [D] who earn large sums of money in personalaccounts
