17、 teamed up to condemn such practices. Withmuch fanfare, President Clintons administration launched the No Sweatcampaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit toperiodic independent inspection of their workplace conditions.;This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code

18、 ofConduct, a promise to self?regulate that has since been adopted by ahandful of retailers and many of the nations largest manufacturers,including Nike and L.L. Bean. However, the Department of Defense, whichhas a $ 1 billion garment business that would make it the countrys 14thlargest retail appar

19、el outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. Inaddition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit toperiodic inspections.;Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere tothe code, the job of stopping public?sector sweatshops falls to theDepartment of Labor. Federal cont

20、ractors that persist in violating wagelaws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrativetaxpayer?financed contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administratorat the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the departmenthas never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers.

21、I justassume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements, shesays. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedomof Information Act request, the Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violationsin the past 12 years.21

22、.What is this passgage mainly concerned with?A)The functions of the Department of Labor in America.B)A serious problem threatening American economy.C)The successful attempt of regulating sweatshops in America.D)The seriousness of the problem of sweatshops in America.?22.According to the passage, Kat

27、The term investment portfolio conjures up visions of the trulyrich-the Rockefellers, the Wal?Mart Waltons, Bill Gates. But today,everyone-from the Philadelphia firefighter, his part?time receptionistwife and their three children, to the single Los Angeles lawyer startingout on his own-needs a portfo

28、lio.;A portfolio is simply a collection of financial assets. It mayinclude real estate, rare stamps and coins, precious metals and evenartworks. But those are for people with expertise. What most of us needto know about are stocks, bonds and cash (including such cashequivalents as money?market funds

29、).;How do you decide what part of your portfolio should go to eachof the big three? Begin by understanding that stocks pay higher returnsbut are more risky; bonds and cash pay lower returns but are lessrisky.;Research by Ibbotson Associates, for example, shows thatlarge?company stocks, on average, h

30、ave returned 11.2 percent annuallysince 1926. Over the same period, by comparison, bonds have returned anannual average of 5.3 percent and cash, 3.8 percent.;But short?term risk is another matter. In 1974, a one?year $1000investment in the stock market would have declined to $735.;With bonds, there

31、are two kinds of risk: that the borrower wontpay you back and that the money youll get wont be worth very much. TheU.S. government stands behind treasury bonds, so the credit risk isalmost nil. But the inflation risk remains. Say you buy a $1000 bondmaturing in ten years. If inflation averages about

32、 seven percent overthat time, then the $1000 you receive at maturity can only buy $500worth of todays goods.;With cash, the inflation risk is lower, since over a long periodyou can keep rolling over your CDs every year (or more often). Ifinflation rises, interest rates rise to compensate.;As a resul

33、t, the single most imortant rule in building aportfolio is this: If you dont need the money for a long time, then putit into stocks. If you need it soon, put it into bonds and cash.26.This passage is intended to give advice on _.A) how to avoid inflation risks?B) what kinds of bonds to buyC) how to

35、leD) they started out on their own?28.Which of the following statements will the author support?A) Everybody can get rich with some financial assets.B) The credit risk for treasury bonds is extremely high.C) Its no use trying to know the advantages of stocks, bondsand cash.D) Everybody should realiz

36、e the importance of distribution oftheir financial assets.?29.The word returns in paragraph three can be best replaced by_.?A) returning journeys?B) profits?C) savings?D) investments?30.The author of the passage points out that _.A) keeping cash is the only way to avoid risksB) the longer you own a

37、stock, the more you lostC) the high rate of profit and high rate of risk coexist instocksD) the best way to accumulate wealth is by investing in stocks?Passage Three?Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:?There were two widely divergent influences on the earlydevelopment of statistic

38、al methods. Statistics had a mother who wasdedicated to keeping orderly records of governmental units (state andstatistics come from the same Latin root, status) and a gentlemanlygambling father who relied on mathematics to increase his skill atplaying the odds in games of chance. The influence of t

39、he mother on theoffspring, statistics, is represented by counting, measuring, describing,tabulating, ordering, and the taking of censuses-all of which led tomodern descriptive statistics. From the influence of the father camemodern inferential statistics, which is based squarely on theories ofprobab

40、ility.;Descriptive statistics involves tabulating, depicting, anddescribing collections of data. These data may be either quantitative,such as measures of height, intelligence, or grade level-variables thatare characterized by an underlying continuum-or the data many representqualitative variables,

41、such as sex, college major, or personality type.Large masses of data must generally undergo a process of summarizationor reducing to comprehensibly form the properties of an otherwiseunwieldy mass of data.;Inferential statistics is a formalized body of methods forsolving another class of problems th

42、at present great difficulties forthe unaided human mind. This general class of problemscharacteristically involves attempts to make predictions using a sampleof observations. For example, a school superintendent wishes todetermine the proportion of children in a large school system who cometo school

43、 without breakfast, have been vaccinated for flu, or whatever.Having a little knowledge of statistics, the superintendent would knowthat it is unnecessary and inefficiency to question each child; theproportion for the entire district could be estimated fairly accuratelyfrom a sample of as few as 100

44、 children. Thus, the purpose ofinferential statistics is to predict or estimate characteristics of apopulation from a knowledge of the characteristics of only a sample ofthe population.31.What is the passage mainly concerned with?A) Development and application of statistics.B) Origin of descriptive

45、statistics.C) Limitations of inferential statistics.D) Importance of statistics.?32.Describing and tabulating are associated with _.A) inferential statistics?B) descriptive statisticsC) theories of probability?D) inefficiency of counting?33.Which of the following statements is true about descriptive

46、statistics?A) It combines quantitative variables and qualitative variables.B) It can be used to deal with only quantitative variables.C) It helps to summarize properties of a group of data.D) It helps to make predictions using a sample of observations.?34.The word unwieldy in the second paragraph is

47、 closest inmeaning to _.A) difficult to collectC) incomprehensive D) uncontrollable?B) difficult to tackle?35.A sample of a population is often examined for the followingpurposes except _.A) to make a more accurate prediction of trendB) to improve efficiency and avoid unnecessary workC) to save the

48、trouble of approaching every membersD) to predict characteristics of the entire populationPassage Four?Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:?The Japanese are fascinated by automata and new inventions.Japanese children are used to friendly robots in their comics, in toys,and in TV an

49、imated cartoons. When as adults they join theworkforce,robots mean that there is no need to import cheap foreignlabor, as happens in many other parts of the world. There is no need forhumans to put up with dirty, mind?deadening mechanical work the robotdoes it all without complaint, around the clock

50、. Robots dont go onstrike over tea breaks they dont have tea, or any other kind ofbreaks:they work, day and night, without having to be paid overtime,without making mistakes. Human tasks are subject to human error: roboterror seldom or never occurs except as a result of human error!;In Japan, robots

51、 are almost respected for their virtues. When anew robot is introduced to a small suburban factory, a Shinto priest isinvited to inaugurate it. He inaugurates the robot with words along thelines of Welcome to our co?worker, we hope youll help him settle in.No one laughs.;FANUC demonstrates the Japan

52、ese tendency to conform particularlystrikingly. The founder of FANUC, Dr. Inaba, has created an army thatmakes no distinction between blue?collar, white?collar and steel?collarworker: everyone, including the warlord himself, is dressed in yellowclothing issued free by the company. Perhaps to make up

53、 for the boring nature of the work, there are anumber of other company perks. Company benefits, including pay, are muchhigher than in similar companies in Japan. Travel to and from work isprovided free in the companys yellow buses. However, workers areexpected to put in demanding unpaid overtime. Th

54、ere is a clock in theproduct development laboratory set to run at ten times the normal speed,the remind everyone that the company is on a war footing.;As we watched Dr. Inabas yellow helicopter soar away to Naritaairport, we couldnt help thinking that his dream of world domination inrobotics and all
