填空题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable paragraphs from the list A-G and fill them into the numbered boxes to form a coherent text. Paragraph A and D have been correctly placed. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. A. Is America's mortgage market rigged against blacks? Yes, say many researchers and lobbyists. Blacks are rejected for home loans far more often than whites; and despite four years of tough enforcement of anti-discrimination laws, they are likelier to be turned down than when Bill Clinton took office. No, retort mortgage lenders. Relative rejection rates reflect not race, but such things as credit and debt histories. And anyway, black home-ownership and lending to black borrowers have both increased sharply in the past few years. B. Follow-up work by researchers at the Chicago Fed found that the loan officers in the Aston study— almost all of them white—treated objective information differently according to the race of the applicant. In particular, bad edit histories and indebtedness cut blacks' chances of approval far more than those of whites. However, this research has com under attack. Suppose, say its critics, that blacks were being widely discriminated against. Then blacks who succeed in getting mortgages should be less likely to default than whites. But a study by four economists at the Federal Reserve found that black default rates are higher. Mom, black— owned banks tend to have even higher rejection rates, suggesting factors other than race are at work. C. Increasingly, lenders gather information about applicants over the phone, by post or via a computer, rather than face—to—face. Remote assessment is much favored by mortgage brokers, who accounted for 56% of the loan market. Because it is easier to bundle together loans with few quarks, they favor hassle—free applicator. And because they like to deal with large amounts of money, many prefer not to bother with low—value mortgages. The rise of these lenders has made it more likely that poorer Americans black or white, will be left out. D. The virtue of remote mortgage assessment and credit bong is that it is impossible to be racist when the applicant is invisible. But the irony is that because blacks are on average poorer than most Americans, they are more likely to be economically insecure and to have dodger credit histories. Thus these color-blind devise will not increase black's access to mortgage finance may do the reverse. E. The Clinton administration has not joined the search war, but it clearly smells racism in the lending process. And rather than pursue individual instances of discrimination, it is bong lenders toward the use of technocratic tools that are color-blind but unforgiving to Americans with low incomes. Ironically, these even fairer tools may help to exposing why all racial categories, and especially blacks, are suffering increasing denial rates. F. Both sides agree that good candidates, of whatever color, will get mortgages, whereas bad ones will not, and that explicit, Jbo-Crow-style racism is gone. They disagree about the treatment of applicants whose economic histories are flawed but not hopeless. Among this group, according to a paper by economists at the Boston Federal Reserve, published last year and much discussed since, whites do get a better deal. The authors estimated the effect of 38 variables, such as income and location of property, on the chances of getting a loan. Had blacks been treated in the same way as whites, they concluded, 21% would have been rejected: in fact, 28% were. G. Another tool, credit scores, measure the risk of delinquency and default. Scores are calculated by compiling information on applicants' credit histories. Those with less than a given score are turned down. Sinner Fannie Mac and Freddie Mac, another government—backed provider of secondary mortgages, last year asked lenders to provide credit scores, and their use has soared. Order:

填空题A. With the drive of many women to strive to be equal with men, many women have chosen to work to prove themselves. While this is a worthy goal, it can be accomplished in more meaningful ways. With this desire to work like men do, women have sacrificed the family in their pursuit. Do not take this as an attack upon women, because men in their pursuit of wealth have equally sacrificed their family to gain wealth. B. Governments, too, should embrace the potential of women. Women complain (rightly) of centuries of exploitation. Yet, to an economist, women are not exploited enough: they are the world's most under-utilized resource; getting more of them into work is part of the solution to many economic woes, including shrinking populations and poverty. C. What is clear is that in countries such as Japan, Germany and Italy, which are all troubled by the demographics of shrinking populations, far fewer women work than in America, let alone Sweden. If female labor-force participation in these countries rose to American levels, it would give a helpful boost to these countries' growth rates. Likewise, in developing countries where girls are less likely to go to school than boys, investing in education would deliver huge economic and social returns. Not only will educated women be more productive, but they will also bring up better educated and healthier children. More women in government could also boost economic growth: studies show that women are more likely to spend money on improving health, education, infrastructure and poverty and less likely to waste it on tanks and bombs. D. Furthermore, the increase in female employment in the rich world has been the main driving force of growth in the past couple of decades. Those women have contributed more to global GDP growth than have either new technology or the new giants, China and India. Add the value of housework and child rearing, and women probably account for just over half of world output. It is true that women still get paid less and few make it to the top of companies, but as prejudice fades over coming years, women will have great scope to boost their productivity—and incomes. E. Girls get better grades at school than boys, and in most developed countries more women than men go to university. Women will thus be better equipped for the new jobs of the 21st century, in which brains count a lot more than brawn. In Britain far more women than men are now being trained to become doctors. And women are more likely to provide sound advice on investing their parents' nest egg: surveys show that women consistently achieve higher financial returns than men do. F. Some people fret that if more women work rather than mind their children, this will boost GDP but create negative social externalities, such as a lower birth rate. Yet developed countries where more women work, such as Sweden and America, actually have higher birth rates than Japan and Italy, where women stay at home. Others fear that women's move into the paid labor force can come at the expense of children. Yet the evidence for this is mixed. For instance, a study by Suzanne Bianchi at Maryland University finds that mothers spent the same time, on average, on childcare in 2009 as in 1965. The increase in work outside the home was offset by less housework—and less spare time and less sleep. G. Even today in the modem, developed world, surveys show that parents still prefer to have a boy rather than a girl. One longstanding reason why boys have been seen as a greater blessing has been that they are expected to become better economic providers for their parents' old age. Yet it is time for parents to think again. Girls may now be a better investment.
