填空题(复旦大学2009年试题) Here is a great irony of 21st-century global public health; While many hundreds of millions of people lack adequate food as a result of economic inequities, political corruption, or warfare, many hundreds of millions【1】are overweight to the point of increased risk for diet-related chronic diseases. Obesity is a worldwide phenomenon, affecting children as well as adults and forcing all but the poorest countries to divert scarce resources【2】from food security to take care of people with preventable heart disease and diabetes. To reverse the obesity epidemic, we must address fundamental causes. Overweight comes from consuming more food energy than【3】expended in activity. The cause of this imbalance also is ironic: improved prosperity. People use extra income to eat more and be less active. Market economies encourage this. They turn people with expendable income into consumers of aggressively marketed foods that are high in energy but low in【4】value, and of cars, television sets, and computers that promote sedentary behavior. Gaining weight is good for business. Food is particularly big business because everyone eats. Moreover, food is so overproduced that many countries, especially the rich ones, have far more than they need—-【5】irony. In the United States, to take an extreme example, most adults—of all ages, incomes, educational levels, and census categories—are overweight. The U. S. food supply provides 3,800 kilocalories per person per day, nearly twice as much as required by many adults. Overabundant food forces companies to compete【6】sales through advertising, health claims, new products, larger portions, and campaigns【7】toward children. Food marketing promotes weight gain. Indeed, it is difficult to think【8】any major industry that might benefit if people ate less food; certainly【9】the agriculture, food product, grocery, restaurant, diet, or drug industries. All flourish when people eat more, and all employ armies of lobbyists to discourage governments from doing anything to inhibit【10】.

Help Your Kids Figure Out Who They Are G. BuildYour Kids' Sense of Responsibility How Can a Parent Help?Mothers and fathers can do a lot to ensure a safe landing in early adulthood for their kids. Even if a job's starting salary seems too small to satisfy an emerging adult' s need for rapid content, the transition from school to work can be less of a setback if the start-up adult is ready for the move. Here are a few measures, drawn from my bookReady or Not, Here Life Comes, that parents can take to prevent what I call "work-life unreadiness": 41._________________.You can start this process when they are 11 or 12. Periodically review their emerging strengths and weak- nesses with them, and work together on any shortcomings, like difficulty in communicating well or collaborating. Also, identify the kinds of interests they keep coming back to, as these offer clues to the careers that will fit them best 42._________________.Kids need a range of authentic role models -- as opposed to members of their clique, pop stars and vaunted athletes. Have regular dinner-table discussions about people the family knows and how they got where they are. Discuss the joys and downsides of your own career and encourage your kids to form some ideas about their own future. When asked what they want to do, they should be discouraged from saying "I have no idea." They can change their minds 200 times, but having only a foggy view of the future is of little good. 43._________________. Teachers are responsible for teaching kids how to learn; parents should be responsible for teaching them how to work. Assign responsibilities around the house and make sure homework deadlines are met. Encourage teenagers to take a part-time job. Kids need plenty of practice delaying gratification and deploying effective organizational skills, such as managing time and setting priorities.44.___________________. Playing video games encourages immediate content. And hours of watching TV shows with canned laughter only teaches kids to process information in a passive way. At the same time, listening through earphones to the same monotonous beats for long stretches encourages kids to stay inside their bubble instead of pursuing other endeavors. All these activities can prevent the growth of important communication and thinking skills and make in difficult for kids to develop the kinds of sustained concentration they will need for most jobs.45.___________________. They should know how to deal with setbacks, stresses and feelings of inadequacy. They should also learn how to solve problems and resolve conflicts, ways to brainstorm and think critically. Discussions at home can help kids practice doing these things and help them apply these skills to everyday life situations. What about the son or daughter who is grown but seems to be struggling and wandering aimlessly through early adulthood? Parents still have a major role to play, but now it is more delicate. They have to be careful not to come across as disappointed in their child. They should exhibit strong interest and respect for whatever currently interests their fledging adult (as naive or ill-conceived as it may seem) while becoming a partner in exploring options for the future. Most of all, these new adults must feel that they are respected and supported by a family that appreciates them.
填空题Directions: Read the following text and
choose the best answer from the right column to complete each of the unfinished
statements in the left column. There are two extra choices in the right column.
Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.Over the past decade the government of South Africa has used mining
revenues to refurbish Soweto, the symbolic town of the apartheid era. The roads
are spotless, police patrols offer a measure of safety, children go to school.
But their parents have no jobs. Many spend their days at the Maponya Mall, a
shopping centre straight from the rich world, and their nights in shebeens,
private drinking dens that first opened when blacks could not legally visit
bars. The official national unemployment rate is 25%, but the real figure is
above 40%. If there is one country that exemplifies the
challenges awaiting Africa as it becomes richer and more developed, it is South
Africa. It has the biggest economy and the most developed democracy among the
larger African countries. However, it is also among the most unequal. In a
global ranking by Gini coefficient, a measure of income inequality, South Africa
comes off as one of the worst. The South African economy is growing and welfare
spending has brought down absolute poverty levels, yet the gap between rich and
poor is now wider than under apartheid. There are many reasons for this, but the
main one is the country's failure to move up the economic-development ladder.
Industrialization has stalled. Sedated by mining income, politicians and voters
see little need to make difficult adjustments. Above all, they are unwilling to
free up labour markets. The rest of the continent must learn
its lesson from this. Resource income is useful but it cannot replace other
industries. Many countries know this but, like South Africa, they fail to create
an environment in which businesses can prosper and create jobs. African
economies differ fundamentally from some of their successful Asian counterparts,
which for decades have focused on making things that other countries want to
buy, and are now doing the same for services. If Africa wants to overtake Asia,
it needs to give a higher priority to manufacturing. Will it?
Fee-hungry bankers in Johannesburg, South Africa's business capital, pronounce
the continent "ready for take-off". Business conferences are filled with talk of
African lions overtaking Asian tigers. Bob Geldof, the founder of Live Aid, is
leading the pack in his new incarnation as head of an investment
group. Sceptics are equally vocal. Some view capitalism with
suspicion and sense a return to colonialism. Others point out that every boom
comes to an end, citing the last chapter of Thomas Pakenham's otherwise
excellent book, "The Scramble for Africa", published in 1992. It depicts
Zimbabwe's independence in 1980-towards the end of an earlier commodities
boom-as a bright new dawn and applauds the rise of its first black leader, Mr.
Mugabe, who went on to bankrupt his country. A.has the most
unequal revenues B.has the worst democratic system
C.can not displace other industries D.the country fails
to boost its economy E.every prosperity will finally meets its
end F.Africa's economy will soon overtake Asia
G.has prepared for the economic development

填空题A child who has once been pleased with tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not led parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it (41) of a book, and, if a parent can produce (42) in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better. A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the (43) , one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, (44) the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge deems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well-authenticated cases of children (45) dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear (46) the pleasure of a fear face and mastered. There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds (47) they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc, do not exist, and that, instead of indulging, his fantasies (48) fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their cases (49) sound there should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on broomstick (50) covering a telephone with kissed in the belief that it was their enchanted girl- friend. No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no such child ever believed that it was.
