第1题:
Text 2 To paraphrase 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke,“all that is needed for the triumph of a misguided cause is that good people do nothing.”One such cause now seeks to end biomedical research because of the theory that animals have rights ruling out their use in research. Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates, whose arguments are confusing the public and thereby threatening advances in health knowledge and care. Leaders of the animal rights movement target biomedical research because it depends on public funding, and few people understand the process of health care research. Hearing allegations of cruelty to animals in research settings, many are perplexed that anyone would deliberately harm an animal. For example, a grandmotherly woman staffing an animal rights booth at a recent street fair was distributing a brochure that encouraged readers not to use anything that opposed immunizations, she wanted to know if vaccines come from animal research. When assured that they do, she replied,“Then I would have to say yes.”Asked what will happen when epidemics return, she said,“Don’t worry, scientists will find some way of using computers.”Such well-meaning people just don's understand. Scientists must communicate their message to the public in a compassionate, understandable way-in human terms, not in the language of molecular biology. We need to make clear the connection between animal research and a grandmother's hip replacement, a father's bypass operation a baby's vaccinations, and even a pet's shots. To those who are unaware that animal research was needed to produce these treatments, as well as new treatments and vaccines, animal research seems wasteful at best and cruel at worst.Much can be done. Scientists could“adopt”middle school classes and present their own research. They should be quick to respond to letters to the editor, lest animal rights misinformation go unchallenged and acquire a deceptive appearance of truth. Research institutions could be opened to tours, to show that laboratory animals receive humane care. Finally, because the ultimate stakeholders are patients, the health research community should actively recruit to its cause not only well-known personalities such as Stephen Cooper, who has made courageous statements about the value of animal research, but all who receive medical treatment. If good people do nothing there is a real possibility that an uninformed citizenry will extinguish the precious embers of medical progress.

[B] he would have agreed to the contract with Ahold
[C] more time could have been devoted to his recovery plan

本题考查推理引申。注意题干中if条件句中用的是虚拟语气,因此正确选项应是一种未能实现的结果。第四段提到安德斯·莫博格批评公司非执行董事没有接受他在5月份公布薪酬的建议。第六段引用他的话中又提到,“我真希望监事会5月份已经公布这个薪酬来避免这样的情形(监事会处境困难)”。因此[A]项正确。
第四段末句中when引导的时间状语从句说明5月份的时候他已同意签定合同。因此[B]项不是虚拟结果。文中未把“薪酬”与“复兴计划”联系起来说明两者的相互影响,因此[C]项无从得知。第八段提到股东反对给莫博格的薪酬,但没有说明是因为公布时间造成的,因此我们无法得出公布早一些,股东就不会反对。[D]项无从推出。

What would happen if women's wages were raised?
A. The imput of labor would be increased.
B. The unemployment rate would go up.
C. Those who have jobs would all become better off.

此题为细节题。文章的最后一段内可以找到句子:The result will be a surplus(过剩)of labor。如果政府干预提高女性的工资待遇,将会导致劳动力过剩,从而引起失业率上升的问题。所以选答案 B。
