President Arling has put his long awaited economic restructuring program before the Congress.It provides a coordinateD.program of investment credits,research grants,education reforms,and changes designed to make American industry morecompetitive.This is necessary to reverse economic slide into unemployment,lack of growth,and trade deficits that haveplagued the economy for the past six years.The most liberal wing of the President’s party has called for stronger and more direct action.They want an incomes policyto check inflation while federal financing helps rebuild industry behind a wall of protective tariffs.The Republicans,however,decry even the modest,graduated tax increases in the President’s program.They want taxcuts and more open market.They say if federal money has to be injected into the economy,let it through defence spending.Both these alternatives ignore the unique nature of the economic problem before us.It is not simply a matter of markets orfinancing.The new technology allows vastly increased production for those able to master it.But it also threatens those whofail to adopt it with permanent second-class citizenship in the world economy.If an industry cannot lever itself up to the leading stage of technological advances,then it will not be able to compete effectively.If it cannot do this,no amount of governmentprotectionism or access to foreign markets can keep it profitable for long.Without the profits and experience of technological excellence to reinvest,that industry can only fall still further behind its foreign competitors.So the crux is the technology and that is where the President’s program focused.The danger is not that a plan will not bepassed,it is that the ideologues of right and left will distort the bill with amendments that will blur its focus on technology.Theeconomic restructuring plan should be passed intact.If we fail to restructure our economy now,we may not get a secondchance.The passage is ______.A.a review.B.a preface.C.an advertisementD.an editorial.

The Law to Keep the Oil Industry under ControlThe Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control.A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline;production limits have been laid down(though these have already beenraised);and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers.But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems,and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long.As on Norwegian politician said last week:“We will soon be changed beyond all recognition.”Ever since the war,the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the ArcticCircle.During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success:Tromso has been built up into a localcapital with a university,a large hospital and a healthy industry.But the oil industry has already started to draw people south,and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north,however.With nearly 100 percent employment,everyonecan see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oilindustry.Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.Thereal argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life.Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population,but they are an important part of it,because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride asessentially Norwegian.And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damagethat it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.The Norwegian Government has tried to ______.A.encourage the oil companies to discover new oil sources.B.prevent oil companies employing people from northern Norway.C.help the oil companies solve many of their problems.D.keep the oil industry to something near its present size.

共用题干Some Things We Know About LanguageMany things about language are a mystery,and many will always remain so.But some things we do know.First,we know that all human beings have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language,no set of speech sounds by which the people communicate with one another. Furthermore,in historical times,there has never been a race of men without a language.Second,there is no such thing as a primitive language.There are many people whose cultures are undeveloped,who are,as we say,uncivilized,but the languages they speak are not primitive .In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing.This has not always been well understood;indeed,the direct contrary has often been stated.Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate.Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises.Study has proved this to be nonsense .There are,or were,hundreds of American Indian languages,and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old.They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with,but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.Finally,we know that language changes.It is natural and normal for language to change;the only languages which do not change are the dead ones.This is easy to understand if we look backward in time.Change goes on in all aspects of language.Grammatical teatures change as do speech sounds,and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rap-idly. Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language. In the second paragraph the passage tells us that______.A: some backward race doesn't have a language of its ownB: some race in history didn't possess a language of its ownC: any human race,whether backward or not,has a languageD: some races on earth can communicate without language

Very few of our birds stay with us the year round.Some come to us in the winter from the cold?north.Others come from the south to spend the summer with us.How do they know the way?Suppose?you were told to find your way to a place hundreds of miles away,do you think you could do it?Yet birds travel over mountains,forests,lakes and even across the oceans,and do not stray from?the path.They find their way back in the spring to the same orchard(果园)and the very trees where?they nested the summer before.It is wonderful how quickly birds travel such long distances from their summer homes to their?winter ones.Some birds have been known to fly hundreds of miles in a day.But others travel much?more slowly.Why do birds undertake these long journeys twice a year?Perhaps cold weather and lack of?food drive them from us in the autumn,but we cannot tell why they leave the sunny south to come?back to us in the spring.We know only that many of them like to make their nests and rear their?young in the north.We are sorry to see them go,but we know that when winter is over they will come back to us.How far do birds usually travel from their summer homes to their winter ones?A.About hundreds of miles.B.About thousands of miles.C.The distance that takes a bird to fly the whole morning.D.The passage does not tell us.
