Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Migration is usually defined as perman

3、ent or semi-permanent change of residence. This broad definition, of course, would include a move across the street or across a city. Our concern is with movement between nations, not with internal migration within nations, although such movements often exceed international movements in volume. Toda

4、y, the motives of people who move short distances are very similar to those of internalional migrants. Students of human migration speak of push and pull factors, which influence an individuals decision to move from one place to another. Push factors are associated with the place of origin. A push f

5、actor can be as simple and mild a matter as difficulty in finding a suitable job, or as traumatic(创伤的) as war, or severe famine(饥荒). Obviously, refugees who leave their homes with guns pointed at their heads are motivated almost entirely by push factors (although pull factors do influence their choi

6、ce of destination). Pull factors are those associated with the place of destination. Most often these are economic, such as better job opportunities or the availability of good land to farm. The latter was an important factor in attracting settlers to the United States during the 19th century. In ge

7、neral, pull factors add up to an apparently better chance between several attractive potential destinations. The deciding factor might be a non-economic consideration such as the presence of relatives, friends, or at least fellow countrymen already established in the new place who are willing to hel

8、p the newcomers settle in. Considerations of this sort lead to the development of migration flow. Besides push and pull factors, there are what the sociologists call intervening obstacles. Even if push and/or pull factors are very strong they still may be outweighed by intervening obstacles, such as

9、 the distance of the move, the trouble and cost of moving, the difficulty of entering the new country, and the problems likely to be encountered on arrival. The decision to move is also influenced by personal factors of the potential migrant. The same push-pull factors and obstacles operate differen

10、tly on different people, sometimes because they are at different stages of their lives, or just because of their varying abilities and personalities. The prospect of packing up everything and moving to a new and perhaps very strange environment may appear interesting and challenging to an unmarried

17、blic universities within a given state rises each year,this is now an almost impossible feat（功绩）.80 percent of students work at least part-time during college.Recently the question of whether or not working your way through school has become a thing of the past was raised by Randy Olson,a graduate s

18、tudent at Michigan State University,who decided to investigate the issue at his own university,CHis research found that in 1979 at MSU,a student could work one day for any minimum wage job(8.44 hours)at S2.90 per hour to pay for one credit hour of school.In 2013,the same student would have to work 6

19、0 hours to payfor one credit hour based on the minimum rage of $7,25 per hour.DThe average price of tuition at 4-year public universities rose 2.9% in 2013.This was the smallest tuition increase in nearly 30 years.Since 2004,the average cost of attending a public university in a given state has cont

20、inuously increased as well.Minimum wage only rose in ten states in 2013, while tuition went up in every state.EWith these numbers in mind,its no surprise some students are working almost full time to pay for school.Ryan Rose,a sophomore at the University of Southern California,works about 30 hours a

21、 week to pay for his expenses. While the university covers his cost of attendance,he still feels the need to work to cover the high cost of living in Los Angeles.If I went to school at home,I would have expenses that are more fun based,rather than things like buying food and paying rent, he says.But

22、 I felt the educational appeal of USC was going to give me more money in the long run.FAs a production manager for USCs Trojan Events and Services, Rose handles the logistics of booking and planning events on USCs campus.Since his job reflects highly on the university,he feels a need to prioritize h

26、f college wasnt so high,maybe I could only work one job like a normal student,” Williams says.IAlthough Olsons data do not analyze the costs of private schools such as USC, he did broaden his research to include all public four-year universities in the U.S. Olson analyzed the rising cost of tuition

27、from 1987 to 2010 at these schools and found very similar results.After adding a linear regression analysis to find tuition costs in 1979,he found that 182 hours a year could pay for a students tuition in full.In 2013,it would take 991 hours to pay for the same year of school.But all of Olsons data

28、only take into account the cost of tuition,meaning he does not include the cost of food,rent,books and general living expenses.J Working 30 hours a week allows students like Rose to pay for expenses outside of tuition.Although Roses financial aid package includes a work-study allotment（勤工俭学助学金），this

29、 isnt enough to cover his college costs outside of tuition.If my company limited my hours to my work-study allotment I wouldnt be able to attend school because I wouldnt have enough money. I get the same work-study allotment as some of my friends who live in much cheaper states where the cost of liv

36、s, Tomlinson believes current students need to make time for both work and school.Working a few hours is a good thing because it broadens your knowledge base., the danger is when it becomes so many hours that it impacts your schoolwork, she says. Its ideal to have a healthy balance in between. But w

43、 or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Women who apply for jobs in middle or senior management have a higher success rate than men, according to an employment survey. But of course far fewer of them app

44、ly for these positions. The study, by recruitment (征召新成员) consultants NB Selection, shows that while one in six men who appear on interview shortlist get jobs, the figure rises to one in four for women. Reasons for higher success rates among women are difficult to isolate. One explanation suggested

45、is that if a woman candidate manages to get on a shortlist, then she has probably already proved herself to be an exceptional candidate. Dr. Marx said that when women apply for positions they tend to be better qualified than their male counterparts but are more selective and conservative in their jo

46、b search. Women tend to research thoroughly before applying for positions or attending interviews. Men, on the other hand, seem to rely on their ability to sell themselves and to convince employers that any shortcomings they have will not prevent them from doing a good job. Managerial and executive

47、progress made by women is confirmed by the annual survey of boards of directors carried out by Korn International. This year the survey shows a doubling of the number of women serving as non-executive directors compared with the previous year. However, progress remains painfully slow and there were

48、still only 18 posts filled by women out of a total of 354 non-executive positions surveyed. In Europe a recent feature of corporate life in the recession has been the de-layering of management structures. Hilary Sears said that this has halted progress for women in as much as de-layering has taken p

49、lace either where women are working or in layers they aspire to. Sears also noted a positive trend from the recession, which has been the growing number of women who have started up on their own. In business as a whole, there are a number of factors encouraging the prospect of greater equality in th

50、e workforce. Demographic trends suggest that the number of women going into employment is steadily increasing. In addition a far greater number of women are now passing through higher education, making them better qualified to move into management positions. Organizations such as the European Womens

51、 Management Development Network provide a range of opportunities for women to enhance their skills and contacts. However, Ariane Antal, director of the International Institute for Organization Change for Archamps in France, said that there is only anecdotal evidence of changes in recruitment pattern

52、s. And she said: Its still so hard for women to even get on to shortlists -there are so many hurdles and barriers. She agreed that there have been some positive signs but said: Until there is a belief among employers, until they value the difference, nothing will change. From the passage, we can see

53、 that males applicants _ female applicants for top posts.41、 【S10】42、（32） 43、The little girl upstairs practiced playing the piano all day long and as a result._(我很难集中精力写论文) 44、 【B4】45、 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a passage of at least 150 words in the title of Are
