共用题干第一篇
The United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation.However,middle class is not a real designation,nor does it carry privileges.It is more of a perception,which probably was as true as it ever could be right after World War Ⅱ.The economy was growing,more and more people owned their own homes,workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them,and nearly everyone who wanted a higher education could have one.Successfi1l people enjoyed upward social mobility.They may have started out poor,but they could become rich.Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility.In other words,they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places.
The middle class collectively holds several values and principles.One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that one can determine one's own economic fate.In addition,middle class morality embraces principles of individual responsibility,importance of family,obligations to others,and believing in something outside oneself.
But in the 1990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success.A U. S. News&World Report survey in 1994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle class families could no longer make ends meet.Both spouses now worked,as did some of the children;long commutes became routine;the need for child care put strains on the family;and public schools were not as good as they once were.Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using credit to stay afloat. The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing.In the years after World War Ⅱ,the middle class could be defined as__________.A:overburdened and in debtB:hard working and suspicious C:prosperous and optimisticD:young and foolish
选项
In the years after World War Ⅱ,the middle class could be defined as__________.
A:overburdened and in debt
B:hard working and suspicious
C:prosperous and optimistic
D:young and foolish
答案
C
解析
文章的核心词是middle-class,即“中产阶级”,它不是individual(个人),不是political organization(政治组织),不是government(政府)。它是social and economic group(社会及经济群体),因此选项B是正确的。
文章第二段最后一句提到“中产阶级的道德观包括个人的责任、家庭的重要性、对他人的使命感和相信个人以外的事物”。因此选项D是正确的,其他三个选项都没有提及。
文章第一段描述了二战以后美国人民的生活状况。当时经济蓬勃发展,到处都是机遇。因此选项C,即“繁荣并乐观”的表述是正确的。
短语“in other words”的意思是说“换而言之”。因此只有选项C是正确的。
单词collectively的含义是“全体地”,因此只有选项A是正确的。
