17、w specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the worl

Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, dr

19、iving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month.

25、eat powers of the day. In the first place, Britain had the money necessary to finance the larger enterprises. England's supremacy on the seas had encouraged commerce, and Englishmen had been gathering wealth through their commerce and industry. The newly rich class in that country were not the a

26、ristocratic group, but merchants and businessmen who were willing to devote themselves to industry and scientific agriculture. The wealth of France, on the other hand, was largely in the hands of the nobility, and they were not willing to do the necessary work to develop industry. In the second plac

27、e, Great Britain had undertaken very early the manufacturing of inexpensive and more practical products for which there would be ever-growing demand from the people, especially the new middle class. On the other hard, France produced articles in the luxury class. These could never be turned out in q

28、uantities because they demanded individuality. England was the producer of goods that were produced in quantities, and if she could find a cheaper means of producing them, her markets would grow. So she was ready for methods that would make it possible to manufacture in large quantities. In the thir

29、d place, for a long time England had large numbers of semiskilled workers. When the feudal system broke down in England and the manors were turned to sheep raising, numbers of Englishmen went to the towns. There they engaged in weaving, making shoes, wood carving and many other occupations that deve

30、loped skills. When the industrial revolution began, these men were available for the work on the new machines. Moreover they were free men who could move from place to place as the need for workers arose. This had not been the case in France, which was still chiefly an agricultural country with peas

31、ants bound to their masters in many ways so they could not easily move to the cities. In the fourth place, coal was abundant in Great Britain, and a large amount of this cheap fuel was necessary for ruing the factories. There was coal in northern France, too, but France was late in tapping such reso

32、urces because really everyone depended directly or indirectly on farming for his living.26. Britain had the money necessary to develop industry because _.A. Britain was much wealthier than France at that timeB. Britain government encouraged the development of industryC. the merchants and businessmen

33、 were willing to finance the industryD. the aristocratic group was willing to develop the industry27. According to the passage, French people attached importance to _.A. the quantities of the articlesB. the individuality of the articlesC. the practicality of the articlesD. the price of the articles2

34、8. Which of the following statements is true?A. The wealth of France was largely in the hands of new middle class.B. French people were bound to the new machines.C. France was more likely to produce goods in qualities.D. France could not get free workers necessary to the industry.29. When the indust

35、rial revolution began, Englishmen _.A. were busy amassing wealth through commerce and industryB. had found a cheaper means of producing goods needed in qualitiesC. depended on farming for their livingD. could move from place to place as the need for workers arose30. What can be inferred from the pas

36、sage?A. The demand for luxury goods was limited.B. Industrial Revolution was the result of the interaction of various factors.C. French people preferred farming to industry and commerce.D. Coal was very important to people's life.Part III Cloze (10%, 20 minutes)Directions: There are 10 blanks in

45、r in adolescence, according to a study released on Tuesday.(46) The roughly 40 percent increase in attention problems among heavy TV viewers was observed in both boys and girls.The children aged 5 to 11 watched an average of 2.05 hours of weekday television. From age 13 to 15, time spent in front of

46、 the tube rose to an average of 3.1 hours a day.Those who watched more than two hours, and particularly those who watched more than three hours, of television per day during childhood had above-average symptoms of attention problems in adolescence.(47) Young children who watched a lot of television

47、were more likely to continue the habit as they got older, but even if they did not, the damage was done, the report said."This suggests that the effects of childhood viewing on attention may be long lasting," Landhuis wrote.Landhuis offered several possible explanations for the association

48、.One was that (48) the rapid scene changes common to many TV programs may over stimulate the developing brain of a young child, and could make reality seem boring by comparison."Hence, children who watch a lot of television may become less tolerant of slower-paced and more mundane (ordinary, un

49、exciting) tasks, such as school work," he wrote.It was also possible that TV viewing may replace other activities that promote concentration, such as reading, games, sports and play, he said.While early TV viewing had no effect on kids' behavior if they watched less TV later on, children wh

50、o were heavy TV watchers at 2 to 5 years of age had more attention and sleep problems and behaved more aggressively. And children who had TVs in their bedrooms at age 5.5 had more sleep problems and duller emotional reactivity than their peers with TV-free bedrooms. "It is likely that having a

51、television in the bedroom may lead to increased television viewing at bedtime, thereby interfering with regular sleep patterns and decreasing the intensity with which children react to stimulation," researchers write.(49) Most children plug into the world of television long before they enter sc

52、hool: 70% of child-care-centers use TV during a typical day. In a year, the average child spends 900 hours in school and nearly 1,023 hours in front of a TV.Kids in the United States watch about 4 hours of TV a dayeven though scientific guidelines say children older than 2 should watch no more than 1 to 2 hours a day of quality programming.
