In Section A, there are three passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. In Section B, there are two passages followed by a total of 10 short-answer questions. Read the
21、 passages and write your answers on the Answer Sheet.Section A Multiple-Choice Questions (20%)Passage 1Questions 31 to 37 are based on the following passage. Federal efforts to aid minority businesses began in the 1960s when the Small Business Administration (SBA) began making federally guaranteed l
22、oans and government-sponsored management and technical assistance available to minority business enterprises. While this program enabled many minority entrepreneurs to form new businesses, the results were disappointing, since managerial inexperience, unfavorable locations, and capital shortages led
23、 to high failure rates. Even years after the program was implemented, minority business receipts were not quite two percent of the national economys total receipts.Recently federal policymakers have adopted an approach intended to accelerate development of the minority business sector by moving away
24、 from directly aiding small minority enterprises and toward supporting larger, growth-oriented minority firms through intermediary companies. In this approach, large corporations participate in the development of successful and stable minority businesses by making use of government-sponsored venture
25、 capital. The capital is used by a participating company to establish a Minority Enterprise Small Business Investment Company or MESBIC. The MESBIC then provides capital and guidance to minority businesses that have potential to become future suppliers or customers of the sponsoring company.MESBICs
26、are the result of the belief that providing established firms with easier access to relevant management techniques and more job-specific experience, as well as substantial amounts of capital, gives those firms a greater opportunity to develop sound business foundations than does simply making genera
27、l management experience and small amounts of capital available. Further, since potential markets for the minority businesses already exist through the sponsoring companies, the minority businesses face considerably less risk in terms of location and market fluctuation. Following early financial and
28、operating problems, sponsoring corporations began to capitalize MESBICs far above the legal minimum of $500,000 in order to generate sufficient income and to sustain the quality of management needed. MESBICs are now emerging as increasingly important financing sources for minority enterprises.Ironic
29、ally, MESBIC staffs, which usually consist of Hispanic and Black professionals, tend to approach investments in minority firms more pragmatically than do many MESBIC directors, who are usually senior managers from sponsoring corporations. The latter often still think mainly in terms of the “social r
30、esponsibility approach” and thus seem to prefer deals that are riskier and less attractive than normal investment criteria would warrant. Such differences in viewpoint have produced uneasiness among many minority staff members, who feel that minority entrepreneurs and businesses should be judged by
31、established business considerations. These staff members believe their point of view is closer to the original philosophy of MESBICs and they are concerned that, unless a more prudent course is followed, MESBIC directors may revert to policies likely to re-create the disappointing results of the ori
32、ginal SBA approach.31.Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage? A. The use of MESBICs for aiding minority entrepreneurs seems to have greater potential for success than does the original SBA approach.B. There is a crucial difference in point of view between the staff and di
33、rectors of some MESBICs.C. After initial problems with management and marketing, minority businesses have begun to expand at a steady rate.D. Minority entrepreneurs wishing to form new businesses now have several equally successful federal programs on which to rely. 32.According to the passage, the
34、MESBIC approach differs from the SBA approach in that MESBICs A. seek federal contracts to provide markets for minority businesses. B. encourage minority businesses to provide markets for other minority businesses. C. attempt to maintain a specified rate of growth in the minority business sector. D.
35、 rely on the participation of large corporations to finance minority businesses. 33.Which of the following does the author cite to support the conclusion that the results of the SBA program were disappointing? A. The small number of new minority enterprises formed as a result of the program. B. The
36、small number of minority enterprises that took advantage of the management and technical assistance offered under the program. C. The small percentage of the nations business receipts earned by minority enterprises following the programs implementation. D. The small percentage of recipient minority
37、enterprises that were able to repay federally guaranteed loans made under the program. 34.Which of the following statements about the SBA program can be inferred from the passage? A. The maximum term for loans made to recipient businesses was 15 years.B. Business loans were considered to be more use
38、ful to recipient businesses than was management and technical assistance.C. The anticipated failure rate for recipient businesses was significantly lower than the rate that actually resulted.D. Recipient businesses were encouraged to relocate to areas more favorable for business development. 35.The
39、authors primary objective in the passage is to _. A. disprove the view that federal efforts to aid minority businesses have been ineffectiveB. explain how federal efforts to aid minority businesses have changed since the 1960sC. establish a direct link between the federal efforts to aid minority bus
40、inesses made before the 1960s and those made in the 1980sD. analyze the basis for the belief that job-specific experience is more useful to minority businesses than is general management experience36.It can be inferred from the passage that the attitude of some MESBIC staff members toward the invest
41、ments preferred by some MESBIC directors can best be described as A. disapproving B. defensiveC. shocked D. indifferent37.The passage provides information that would answer which of the following questions? A. What was the average annual amount, in dollars, of minority business receipts before the S
42、BA strategy was implemented?B. What locations are considered to be unfavorable for minority businesses?C. What is the current success rate for minority businesses that are capitalized by MESBICs?D. How has the use of federal funding for minority businesses changed since the 1960s?Passage 2Questions
43、38 to 44 are based on the following passage. In 1977 the prestigious Ewha Womens University in Seoul, Korea, announced the opening of the first womens studies program in Asia. Few academic programs have ever received such public attention. In broadcast debates, critics dismissed the program as a bet
44、rayal of national identity, an imitation of Western ideas, and a distraction from the real task of national unification and economic development. Even supporters underestimated the program; they thought it would be merely another of the many Western ideas that had already proved useful in Asian cult
45、ure, akin to airlines, electricity, and the assembly line. The founders of the program, however, realized that neither view was correct. They had some reservations about the applicability of Western feminist theories to the role of women in Asia and felt that such theories should be closely examined
46、. Their approach has thus far yielded important critiques of Western theory, informed by the special experience of Asian women.For instance, like the Western feminist critique of the Freudian model of the human psyche, the Korean critique finds Freudian theory culture-bound, but in ways different fr
47、om those cited by Western theorists. The Korean theorists claim that Freudian theory assumes the universality of the Western nuclear, male-headed family and focuses on the personality formation of the individual, independent of society. An analysis based on such assumptions could be valid for a high
48、ly competitive, individualistic society. In the Freudian family drama, family members are assumed to be engaged in a Darwinian struggle against each otherfather against son and sibling against sibling. Such a concept projects the competitive model of Western society onto human personalities. But in
49、the Asian concept of personality there is no ideal attached to individualism or to the independent self. The Western model of personality development does not explain major characteristics of the Korean personality, which is social and group-centered. The “self” is a social being defined by and acti
50、ng in a group, and the well-being of both men and women is determined by the equilibrium of the group, not by individual self-assertion. The ideal is one of interdependency.In such a context, what is recognized as “dependency” in Western psychiatric terms is not, in Korean terms, an admission of wea
51、kness or failure. All this bears directly on the Asian perception of mens and womens psychology because men are also “dependent.” In Korean culture, men cry and otherwise easily show their emotions, something that might be considered a betrayal of masculinity in Western culture. In the kinship-based
52、 society of Korea, four generations may live in the same house, which means that people can be sons and daughters all their lives, whereas in Western culture, the roles of husband and son, wife and daughter, are often incompatible.38.Which of the following best summarizes the content of the passage?
53、 A. A critique of a particular womens studies program. B. A report of work in social theory done by a particular womens studies program. C. An assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of a particular womens studies program. D. An analysis of the philosophy underlying womens studies programs. 339.I
54、t can be inferred from the passage that Korean scholars in the field of womens studies undertook an analysis of Freudian theory as a response to which of the following? A. Attacks by critics of the Ewha womens studies program. B. The superficiality of earlier critiques of Freudian theory. C. The pop
55、ularity of Freud in Korean psychiatric circles. D. Their assessment of the relevance and limitations of Western feminist theory with respect to Korean culture. 40.Which of the following conclusions about the introduction of Western ideas to Korean society can be supported by information contained in
56、 the passage? A. Except for technological innovations, few Western ideas have been successfully transplanted into Korean society.B. The introduction of Western ideas to Korean society is viewed by some Koreans as a challenge to Korean identity.C. The development of the Korean economy depends heavily
57、 on the development of new academic programs modeled after Western programs.D. The extent to which Western ideas must be adapted for acceptance by Korean society is minimal.41.It can be inferred from the passage that the position taken by some of the supporters of the Ewha womens studies program was
58、 problematic to the founders of the program because those supporters _. A. assumed that the program would be based on the uncritical adoption of Western theory B. failed to show concern for the issues of national unification and economic developmentC. were unfamiliar with Western feminist theoryD. w
59、ere not themselves scholars in the field of womens studies42.Which of the following statements is most consistent with the view of personality development held by the Ewha womens studies group? A. Personality development occurs in identifiable stages, beginning with dependency in childhood and endin
60、g with independence in adulthood.B. Any theory of personality development, in order to be valid, must be universal.C. Personality development is influenced by the characteristics of the society in which a person lives.D. Personality development is hindered if a person is not permitted to be independ
