第1题：
Interviewer-------- Why is English so important?
David------- Well, English is so important primarily because so many people speak it and use it, so it has now become the lingua franca in the world in a way that we’ve never seen before. We’ve never had a world language of this kind before. So people are learning it not just to be able tocommunicate with native speakers, but also with speakers of other language around world.
Interviewer-------And why has it become that dominant language?
David------I think the reason for that is actually very complicated, although in the twentieth century, we can just see that it’s the rise of the US military and consumer power. I mean the technology, all the big developments in technology largely came from the US. So all of these developments actually were produced within the English language, and people had to learn English in order to understand them, or to benefit from them. The Internet is only one example of that kind. Once a language has got into that position of dominance, it’s actually very different to shift it. So we could be seeing the emergence of other big languages in the world becoming more important than they have been, like Spanish, but it’s unlikely that they’re going to shift the English from its position of dominance.

1.Some of the most commonly used medicines for high blood pressure are drugs called ACE inhibitors（抑制剂）.Doctors have given these drugs to patients for twenty-five years.A government study in the United States found that the use almost doubled between 1 995 and 2000.
2.Doctors have known for years that women should not take ACE inhibitors during the last six months of pregnancy（怀孕）.The medicine can injure the bahy.ACE inhibitors,though,have been considered safe when taken during the first three months.But a new study has found that women who take these drugs early in their pregnancy still increase the risk of hirth disorders（先天性疾病）.Thestudyshowsthat,comparedtoothers,theirbabieswerealmostthreetimesaslikely to be horn with major problems.These included problems with thefo朋ation of the brain and nervous system and holes in the heart.
3.The researchers say they found no increased risk in women who took other blood pressure medicines during the first three months.Researchers at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee and Boston University did the study. The New England Journal of Medicine published the results.The researchers studied the records of almost thirty thousand births between 1985 and 2000.Two hundred nine babies were born to women who took ACE inhibitors during the first three months of their pregnancies.Eighteen of the babies,or almost nine percent,had major disorders.
4.ACE inhibitors are often given to patients with diabetes（糖尿病）.But diabetes during pregnancy can result in birth defects（先天性缺陷）.So the study did not include any women known to be diabetic. ACE inhibitors suppress a protein called angiotensin-converting enzyme（血管紧张素转化酶）,or ACE. This enzyme produces a chemical in the body that makes blood passages narrow. The drugs increase the flow of blood,so pressure is reduced.
5.New drugs are tested on pregnant animals to see if they might cause birth defects in humans. But experts say these tests are not always dependable.The United States Food and Drug Administration helped pay for the study.The FDA says women who might become pregnant should talk with their doctor about other ways to treat high blood pressure.
A:that may cause our blood vessels to become more and more narrow
B:for pregnant women to take during their last six months of pregnancies
C:that their likelihood to suffer major problems is two times higher than other babies
D:with their doctors about how to treat their problems
E:because diabetes during pregnancy may sometimes lead to birth defects
F: though their mothers took ACE inhibitors during their first three months of pregnancies
段首句及段尾部分的句子均表明：服用ACE的孕妇生下的孩子大部分没有什么严重的影响，因此F是答案。第三段说患高血压的孕妇在孕期前3个月服用其他降压药，她们的危险性并没有增加；即使服用ACE抑制剂，其婴儿也只有大约9％患大病。故妊振头三个月相对安全。
第四段说，ACE抑制剂可以抑制一种叫ACE的酶,ACE可以使血管变窄，而ACE抑制剂则可促进血液流动使血压下降。
第五段最后一句说，食品与药品管理局指出：患高血压的妇女在怀孕前应该向医生咨询治疗高血压的其他方法。因此C是正确答案。

第7题：
It is frequently assumed that the mechanization of work has a revolutionary effect on the livesof the people who operate the new machines and on the society into which the machines have beenintroduced. For example, it has been suggested that the employment of women in industry takethem out of the. household, their traditional sphere and fundamentally alter their position in society.In the nineteenth century, when women began to enter factories, Jules Simon, a French politician,warned that by doing so, women would give up their femininity. Fredrich Engels, however,predicted that women would be liberated from the"social, legal, and economic subordination" ofthe family by technological developments that made possible the recruitment of "the whole femalesex .., into public industry." Observers thus differed concerning the social desirability ofmechanization's effects, but thev agreed that it would trmsiorm women's lives.
Historians, particularly thnse investigating the history of women, now seriously question thisassumption of transforming power. They conclude that such dramatic technological innovations asthe spinning jenny, the sewing tnachine, the typewriter, and the vacuum cleaner have not resultedin equally dramatic social changes in women's economic position or in the prevailing evaluation ofwomen's work. The employment of young women in textile mills during the Industrial Revolutionwas largely and extension of an older pattern of employment for young, single women as domestics.It was not the change in office technology, but rather the separation of secretarial work, previouslyseen as an apprenticeship for beginning managers, from administrative work that in the 1880'screated a new class of "dead end" jobs, thenceforth considered "women's work". The increase inthe numbers of married women enployed outside the home in the twentieth century, had less to dowith the mechanization of housework and an increase in leisure time for these women than it didwith their own economic necessity and with high marriage rates that shrank the available pool ofsingle women worke, previously, in many cases, the only women employers would hire.
Women's work has changed considerably in the past 200 years, moving from the household tothe ofiice or the factory, and later becoming mostly white-collar instead of blue-collar work. Fundamentally, however, the conditions under which women work have changed little since the Industrial Revolution: the segregation of occupatious by gender, lower pay for women as a group,jobs that require relatively low levels of skill and offer women little opportunity for advancement all persist, while women's household labour remains demanding. Recent historical investigation has led to a major revision of the notion that lec.hnology is always inherently revolutionary in its effectson society. Mechanization may even have slowed any change in the traditional position of womeu both in the labour market and in the home.

第10题：
第二篇
In many of the developinlg countries in Africa and Asia,the population is growing fast.The reason for this is simple:Women in these countries have a high birth rate一from 3.0 to 7.0 children per woman.The majority of these women are poor,without the food or resources to care for their families.Why do they have so many children?Why don't they limit the size of the family?The answer may be that they often have no choice.There are several reasons for this.
One reason is economic.In a traditional agricultural economy,large families are helpful.Having more children means having more workers in the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age.In an industrial economy,the situation is different. Many children do not help a family;instead,they are an expense.Thus,industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate.This was the case in Italy,which was industrialized quite recently and rapidly.In the early part of the twentieth century,Italy was a poor,largely agricultural country with a high birth rate.After World War Ⅱ,Italy's economy was rapidly modernized and industrialized.By the end of the century,the birth rate had dropped to 1.3 children per woman,the world's lowest.
However,the economy is not the only important factor that influences birth rate.Saudi Arabia, for example,does not have an agriculture-based economy,and it has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world.Nevertheless,it also has a very high birth rate(7.0).Mexico and Indonesia, on the other hand,are poor countries,with largely agricultural economies,but they have recently reduced their population growth.
Clearly,other factors are involved.The most important of these is the condition of women.A high birth rate almost always goes together with lack of education and low status for women.This would explain the high birth rate of Saudi Arabia.There,the traditional culture gives women little education or independence and few possibilities outside the home.On the other hand,the improved condition of womnen in Mexico,Thailand,and Indonesia explains the decline in birth rates in these countries.Their governments have taken measures to provide more education and opportunities for women.
Another key factor in the birth rate is birth control.Women may want to limit their families but have no way to do so. In countries where governments have made birth control easily available and inexpensive ,birth rates have gone down.This is the case in Singapore,Sri Lanka,and India,as well as in Indonesia,Thailand,Mexico,and Brazil.In these countries,women have also been provided with health care and help in planning their families.
These trends show that an effective programn to reduce population growth does not have to depend on better economic conditions. It can be effective if it aims to help women and meet theii needs.Only then,in fact,does it have any real chance of success.
A:the most important factor influencing birth rate is the economy
B:factors other than the economy influence birth rate
C:women who have a high income usually have few children
D:the birth rate depends on per capita income
文章第二段以意大利为例证明了国家工业化以后，人口出生率就会降低的观点。因此只有选项B是正确的。
文章第二段的叙述说明如今的意大利是一个工业化、低出生率的国家。因此选项C是正确的。
文章第三段第一句话告诉我们经济并不是唯一影响出生率的重要因素，这暗示了接下来会讲一些其他影响出生率的因素。文章以沙特阿拉伯为例就是为了证明这一点。因此选项B是正确的。
文章第四段后半部分讲到这些国家的政府采取措施为妇女提供更多的教育和机会来改善妇女的生活状况。因此选项D是正确的。
