nce．标准答案：C知识点解析：文章第二段主要讲了“反主流文化”的兴起及其影响。比较四个选项，只有C项，即第二段第四句Thecounterculturepresentedmenandwomenwithnewrolechoices．最具概括性，也就是“反主流文化”为男性和女性提供了新的职业选择。13、Inthepassagetheauthorproposesthatthecounterculture________．A、destroyedtheUnitedStatesB、transformedsomeAmericanvaluesC、wasnotimportantintheUnitedStatesD、broughtpeoplemoreleisuretimewiththeirfamilies标准答案：B知识点解析：根据题目关键词counterculture可定位至文章第二段和第三段，第二段明确提到Thepeopleinvolvedinthismovementdidnotvaluethemiddle-classgoals即“反主流文化”运动中的人们不再追求中产阶级的目标，接下来列举了具体例子，即作者认为“反主流文化”改变了美国人的一些价值观。14、Itcouldbeinferredfromthepassagethat________．A、menandwomenwillneversharethesamegoalsB、somemenwillbewillingtoexchangetheirtraditionalmalerolesC、mostmenwillbehappytosharesomeofthehouseholdresponsibilitieswiththeirwivesD、moreAmericanhouseholdsareheadedbywomenthaneverbefore标准答案：C知识点解析：A项与文章第四段倒数第二句Butsomewomenbegantoentertraditionallymaleoccupations相矛盾，因此错误；B项指一些男性将愿意改变他们的传统男性角色，文中没有明确提到，故排除；C项指的是大部分男人将会很乐意与妻子分担一些家庭责任，根据文章第二段第五句Takingmoreinterestinchildcare，menbegantosharechild-raisingtaskswiththeirwives．可知，该选项正确；D项与C项矛盾，故排除。15、Thebesttitleforthepassagemaybe________．A、ResultsofFeministMovementsB、NewInfluenceinAmericanlifeC、CountercultureandItsConsequencesD、TraditionalDivisionofMaleandFemaleRoles标准答案：B知识点解析：本文主要讲了男女角色的转变及其这种转变对美国的影响，文章首先提到传统男女分工，其次讲到“反主流文化”的兴起及其影响，再次讲到“女权运动”，最后提到男女角色发展的现状。由此可知，A、C、D三项均片面，只有B项NewInfluenceinAmericanlife(美国生活中新的影响力)正确。Passage4Wecanbeginourdiscussionof“populationasglobalissue”withwhatmostpersonsmeanwhentheydiscuss“thepopulationproblem”：toomanypeopleonearthandatoorapidincreaseinthenumberaddedeachyear．Thefactsarenotindispute．Itwasquiterighttoemploytheanalogythatlinkeddemographicgrowthto“along，thinpowderfusethatburnssteadilyandhaltinglyuntilitfinallyreachesthechargeandexplodes．”Tounderstandthecurrentsituation，whichischaracterizedbyrapidincreasesinpopulation，itisnecessarytounderstandthehistoryofpopulationtrends．Rapidgrowthisacomparativelyrecentphenomenon．Lookingbackat8000yearsofdemographichistory，wefindthatpopulationshavebeenvirtuallystableorgrowingveryslightlyformostofhumanhistory．Formostofourancestors，lifewashard，oftennasty，andveryshort．Therewashighfertilityinmostplaces，butthiswasusuallybalancedbyhighmorality．Formostofhumanhistory，itwasseldomthecasethatoneintenpersonswouldlivepastforty，whileinfancyandchildhoodwereespeciallyriskyperiods．Often，societieswereincleardangerofextinctionbecausedeathratescouldextendtheirbirthrates．Thus，thepopulationproblemthroughoutmostofhistorywashowtopreventextinctionofthehumanrace．Thispatternisimportanttonotice．Notonlydoesitputthecurrentproblemofdemographicgrowthintoahistoricalperspective，butitsuggeststhatthecauseofrapidincreaseinpopulationinrecentyearsisnotasuddenenthusiasmformorechildren，butanimprovementintheconditionsthattraditionallyhavecausedhighmortality．Demographichistorycanbedividedintotwomajorperiods：atimeoflong，slowgrowthwhichextendedfromabout8000BC．tillapproximatelyAD．1650．Inthefirstperiodofsome9，600years，thepopulationincreasedfromsome8millionto500millionin1650．Between1650andthepresent，thepopulationhasincreasedfrom500milliontomorethan4billion．Anditisestimatedthatbytheyear2000therewillbe6．2billionpeoplethroughouttheworld．Onewaytoappreciatethisdramaticdifferenceinsuchabstractnumbersistoreducethetimeframetosomethingthatismoremanageable．Between8000BC．and1650，anaverageofonly50，000personswerebeingaddedannuallytotheworld’spopulationeachyear．Atpresent，thisnumberisaddedeverysixhours．Theincreaseisabout80，000，000personsannually．16、Whichofthefollowingdemographicgrowthpatternissuitableforthelongthinpowderfuseanalogy?A、Avirtuallystableorslightlydecreasingperiodandthenasuddenexplosionofpopulation．B、Aslowgrowthforalongtimeandaperiodofdramaticincrease．C、Toomanypeopleonearthandafewrapidincreaseinthenumberaddedeachyear．D、Alongperiodwhendeathratesexceedbirthratesandthenashortperiodwithhigherfertilityandlowermorality．标准答案：A知识点解析：根据题目关键词thelongthinpowderfuse(细长的导火线)可定位至文章第一段along，thinpowderfusethatburnssteadilyandhaltinglyuntilitfinallyreachesthechargeandexplodes．(细长的导火线稳定地燃烧着，有时会中断，直到最后它达到爆点，然后爆炸)，四种人口增长模式中，只有A项符合这一类比。17、Duringthefirstperiodofdemographichistory，societieswereoftenindangerofextinctionbecause________．A、onlyoneintenpersonscouldlivepast40B、therewashighermoralitythanfertilityinmostplacesC、itwastoodangeroustohavebabiesduetothepoorconditionsD、ourancestorshadlittleenthusiasmformorechildren标准答案：B知识点解析：根据题目关键词indangerofextinction可定位至文章第二段，根据第二段倒数第二句Often，societieswereincleardangerofextinctionbecausedeathratescouldextendtheirbirthrates．(社会总是有停止前进的危险，因为死亡率超过了出生率)，而究其原因，凶为在大部分地方，道德观念比生育观念更强，导致出生率低。18、Whichstatementistrueaboutpopulationincrease?A、Theremightbeanincreaseof2．2billionpersonsfromnowtotheyear2000．B、About50，000babiesareborneverysixhoursatpresent．C、Between8000BC．andthepresent，thepopulationincreaseisabout80，000，000personseveryyear．D、Thepopulationincreasedfasterbetween8000BC．and1650thanbetween1650andthepresent．标准答案：A知识点解析：四个选项都是关于人口增长的数字，可定位至文章最后一段，根据Between1650andthepresent，thepopulationhasincreasedfrom500milliontomorethan4billion．Anditises
