事实细节题。由题干定位至第三段。首句中rising gas prices finally seem to be driving consumers toward more economical choices—and ringing out the era of the SUV提到,上涨的油价最终可能迫使消费者倾向于更加经济的选择,这意味着the SUV时代的结束,故A错,C正确;由最后两句可知SUVs和轻型货车销量下降,但是末句提到smaller SUVs like the Toyota RAV4 came on strong,排除B;由首句中ringing out the era of the SUV 可知the SUV 的时代将结束,故D错。

资料:In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the battle of the sexes.If the process goes too far and man's role is regarded as less important- and that has happened in some cases-we are as badly of as before, only in reverse. It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of momism,-but we don't want to exchange it for neo-popism. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals.There are signs that psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit-nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze men's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is connected not only with a healthy democracy, but also with a healthy family.What does the word "credit" mean in paragraph 3?( )A.FaithB.ComplaintC.AccountD.Reputation

Education has a value of consumption and its demand will depend on its own price,prices of other goods,and______income.A.domesticB.homeC.houseD.household

资料:Virgin America helped Airbus pip Boeing at the post to retain its crown as the world’s largest commercial plane maker.Airbus trailed its arch-rival Boeing in number of orders for most of 2010 but moved ahead after a flurry of sales at the end of the year. At the end of December, Virgin America, Richard Branson’s upstart US airline, ordered 30 of the updated version of Airbus’s A320 model. Airbus has promised the A320 with the new engine option will cut fuel consumption and carbon emissions by 15% compared with the existing models, figures disputed by Boeing and some analysts. The $5.1nd(£ 3.2nd) contract was the first order for the updated airplanes.The Virgin deal capped a year when Airbus took orders for 644 airplanes worth $84nd at list price. Boeing won 625 gross orders with a list price of $70nd. It was held back by delays to its 787 Dreamliner.Both Airbus and Boeing are recovering strongly from an industry recession that saw combined demand for their planes fall by more than two-thirds in 2009. White there were still dozens of plane cancellations in 2010, and both firms have struggled with delays, Airbus secured more than twice the number of airplane orders in 2010 that it had anticipated.Tom Enders, chief executive, said:”2010 has been better than we expected. We will look at 2011 more optimistically. Growth, especially in aviation, is back, and this is largely due to emerging markets. Asia, the Middle East, that’s certainly been the focus.”Last week Airbus announced a $16nd deal with Indigo for 180 airplanes, the largest single order for aircraft in commercial aviation history. The order includes 30 of Airbus’s original A320 single-aisle jets and 150 with Airbus’s new engine-option A320s.Airbus delivered more planes than its US rival for the eighth consecutive year. Its total of 510 deliveries, up from 498 in 2009, topped the 500 mark for the first time at Airbus. Last year the company sold its 10,000th plane in its 40-year history Boeing deliveries fell by 4% to 462 airplanes from 481.John Leahy, Airbus sales chief, said: “There figures show the economy is improving. We have dodged the bullet on a double-dip recession. Aviation is growing again because of Asia, low-cost carriers emerging markets. The only negative on the horizon is the fuel price.”According to Airbus, the updated version of its A320 model is different from the original model in that________.A.it has multiple options when it comes to its engineB.it is a single-aisle jetC.it is more fuel-efficient and environmental-friendlyD.it has a more powerful engine

Only when humanity began to get its food in a more ( ) way was there time for other things, like sports games and entertainment activities.A.predictiveB.provocativeC.protectiveD.productive

共用题干第三篇Reading PoemNo poem should ever be discussed or"analyzed",until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student.Better still,perhaps,is the practice of reading it twice,once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end,so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are,in fact,preparations for reading it aloud,and the reading of the poem is,finally,the most telling"interpretation"of it,suggesting tone,rhythm, and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice,on records or on film,is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all,reciting it.I have come to think,in fact,that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than"analyzing"it,if there isn't time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is"a criticism of life","a heightening of life,enjoyment with others".It is"an approach to the truth of feeling",and it"can save your life".It also deserves a place in the teaching of languages and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don't like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature,about its sound as well as its sense,and they must make room inthe classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?A:The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressed.B:The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.C:One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D:Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.
