DAn increase in students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (归因于)the global economic crisis awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January, according to UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service. A spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.Professor John Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews University, said his first-year lectures---which are open to students from all departments---were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn’t traditionally done.” He said.University applications rose 7% last year, but there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with people’s renewed interest in careers in the pubic sector(部门), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “It’s possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation that’s financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”71. Professor John Beath’s lectures are .A. given in a traditional way B. connected with the present situationC. open to both students and their parents D. warmly received by economics

3 At a recent international meeting of business leaders, Seamus O’Brien said that multi-jurisdictional attempts toregulate corporate governance were futile because of differences in national culture. He drew particular attention tothe Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and International Corporate GovernanceNetwork (ICGN) codes, saying that they were, ‘silly attempts to harmonise practice’. He said that in some countries,for example, there were ‘family reasons’ for making the chairman and chief executive the same person. In othercountries, he said, the separation of these roles seemed to work. Another delegate, Alliya Yongvanich, said that theroles of chief executive and chairman should always be separated because of what she called ‘accountability toshareholders’.One delegate, Vincent Viola, said that the right approach was to allow each country to set up its own corporategovernance provisions. He said that it was suitable for some countries to produce and abide by their own ‘verystructured’ corporate governance provisions, but in some other parts of the world, the local culture was to allow whathe called, ‘local interpretation of the rules’. He said that some cultures valued highly structured governance systemswhile others do not care as much.Required:(a) Explain the roles of the chairman in corporate governance. (5 marks)

It is often said that politeness costs nothing. In fact，it seems that a little more politeness could save businesses ￡5 billion every year. Frequently hearing the phrase“thank you”or“well done”means the same to staff as a modest pay rise.Praise and encouragement also makes employees more likely to work hard and stay in their jobs. In this way the business companies can save the cost of finding new employees. A third of 1,000 workers surveyed by a consulting firm said they did not get thanked at all when they did well-and a further third said they were not thanked enough. In both cases. staff said they felt undervalued，meaning they were less likely to exert themselves and were more likely to look for employment elsewhere.The result of the survey shows that there would be around ￡5.2 billion loss in productivity if the employees felt less appreciated. According to the firm，praising staff has the same positive effect as a 1 per cent pay rise-and works out much cheaper for bosses. Three out of four employees said that regular acknowledgement by their bosses was important to them，but only a quarter said they were actually given as much praise as they felt they needed.The survey found that those in blue-collar and manual jobs were less likely to be given any recognition for doing well. But it seems that they most need such praise.In regional terms，Scottish staff felt most undervalued. Four out of ten workers said they were never thanked and eight out of ten said they would like more praise. However. workers in the North-East are less impressed by being praised by the boss，as only 69 per cent said they felt the need to be told“well done”regularly. Older employees and women need the most reassurance，according to psychologist Averil Leimon. She said that words of praise did more than creating a pleasant place to work-they could even promote profits.The survey indicates that politeness could save businesses a huge amount of money every year because______.A．politeness makes employees expect pay riseB．politeness is less likely to make staff work harderC．politeness helps employers find proper employeesD．politeness helps employers reduce the cost of staff employment

He never had a silly excuse for not doing something again.第 16 题 请把句(1)译成汉语。_______________________________________.
A new scheme for getting children to and from school is being started by the education authorities in part of Eastern England． This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children's safety on the roads．Until now the Country Council has only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed． Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, provided the arrangement will not lose money and that children taking part will be attending their nearest school．The new scheme is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington school． The children live just within the three-mile limit and the Council has said in the past it will not undertake to provide free transport to the school． But now they have agreed to organize a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school's headmaster．Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part in． Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a council official has said the cost of parents should be less than $6．50 a tenn．They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington． The same bus would now just make an extra journey to pick up the Milton children． The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new scheme．The children the Council ran buses for in the past were those__________．A.whose parents were worried about themB.who would have had to walk otherwiseC.who could not walkD.who had to travel a long way
共用题干One-third of Parents Lack Facts about Child DevelopmentOne-third of parents of babies have a surprisingly low knowledge of child development,in-cluding basic concepts about what their children should know or how they should act,a new study finds.For instance,the study found that many parents don't know that 1 -year-olds can't tell the difference between right and wrong,and often don't cooperate or share when playing with other children.The results are surprising because the parents who took part in the survey had young chil- dren,said lead author Dr. Heather Paradis,a pediatric fellow at the University of Rochester Med-ical Center in New York.“They were watching or had just watched their kids go through this de-velopment,and they were probably the most knowledgeable of anybody.”Paradis and her colleagues examined the results of a survey of parents—98 .6 percent of whom were mothers—of more than 10,000 9-month-old babies. As part of the survey,the parents were asked 1 1 questions designed to test their knowledge of a baby's development.The researchers also examined what the parents said about their interactions with their chil- dren,and watched videotapes of how the parents taught new things to their kids.One-third of those surveyed incorrectly answered four or more of the questions.Even when the researchers ad-justed the statistics to account for such factors as education levels and income,those parents were still less likely to enjoy“healthy interactions”with their children.A lack of proper understanding of a child's development can cause assorted problems,Para-dis said. For example,she said,a mother might expect an 18-month-old child to sit still for a doctor's appointment,even though children that age are normally curious and like to wander around.“A mom could misinterpret a child's normal curiosity as intentionally being defiant,and could respond with harsh discipline,withdrawal of affection and repetition of that pattern over time,”Paradis said.“That could hinder the child's potential for full growth and development.”The findings were to be presented Sunday at the Pediatric Academic Societies' meeting in Honolulu.One solution,Paradis said,is for pediatricians to take a more active role in educating new parents.“By improving knowledge of child development among all parents,not just those who are at highest risk,there's an opportunity to enhance parent-child interaction,”she said.“It can ul-timately lead to better parenting.” Babies of one year old have no sense of right or wrong.A:.RightB:wrongC:Not mentioned

共用题干第一篇The Relationship between IQ and Being a VegetarianA Southampton University team found that people who were vegetarians (素食主义者）by 30 had recor-ded five IQ points higher on average at the age of]U.Researchers said it could explain why people with a higher IQ were healthier as a vegetarian diet was linked to lower heart disease and obesity（肥胖）rates.The study of 8,179 people was reported in the british Medical Journal.Twenty years after the IQ tests were carried out in 1970,366 of the participants said they were vegetarians一 although more than 100 reported eating either fish or chicken.Men who were vegetarians had an IQ score of 106,compared with 101 for non-vegetarians;while female vegetarians averaged 104,compared with 99 for non-vegetarians.There was no difference in the IQ scores between strict vegetarians and those who said they were vegetarians but reported eating fish or chicken.Researchers said the findings were partly related to better education and higher class,but it remained statistically significant after adjusting for these factors.Vegetarians were more likely to be female,to be of higher social class and to have higher academic or vocational qualifications than non-vegetarians.However,these differenIces were not reflected in their annual income,which was similar to that of non-vegetarians.Lead researcher Catharine Gale said,"The findings that children with greater intelligence are more likely to report being vegetarians as adults,together with the evidence on the potential benefits of a vegetarian diet on heart health,may help to explain why a higher IQ in childhood or adolescence is linked with a reduced risk ofcoronary heart disease in adult life."But Dr Frankie Phillips of the British Dietetic Association said, "It is like the chicken and egg."Dopcople become vegetarians because they have avery high IQ or is it just that they are clever enough to bemore aware of health issues?It was found in the research that______________.A:most of the participants became vegetarians 20 years after the IQ tests were carried out B:vegetarians who ate fish or chicken were of similar intelligence with strict vegetariansC:female vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetariansD:vegetarians were more likely to have higher annual income than non-vegetarians
