问答题At the beginning of this new semester, a university in Jiangsu Province has found a visible way to help some of its poorer students: It has built some special dormitories for poor students. More than 100 of the school's relatively poor students are now housed in these buildings.

Do you think this is a good idea to help the poorer students? 2. Give at least two reasons to support your argument. 3. Give some suggestions as to how to solve the problem.

问答题A new era is upon us. Call it what you will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It all translates to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we're partly there. (1)The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan(two thirds or more in many of these countries)are in the service industry, and the number is on the rise. (2)There are more part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breadth of the economic transformation can't be measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to a radical new way of thinking about the nature of work itself. (3)Long-held notions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to succeed, even the relation between individuals and employers—all these are being challenged. (4)We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. (5)No one looking ahead 20 years possibly could have foreseen the ways in which a single invention, the chip, would transform our world thanks to its applications in personal computers, digital communications and factory robots.

问答题Globally, most smokers start smoking before the age of 18, with almost a quarter of those beginning before the age of 10. The younger children are when they first try smoking, the more likely they are to become regular tobacco users and the less likely they are to quit.A strong link between advertising and smoking in young people has been proven. The more aware and appreciative young people are of tobacco advertising, the more likely they are to smoke or say they intend to.

问答题While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline—after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late 1 980s—and is still linked to the politics of thrift，in Britain，at least among the middle-class down-shifters of my acquaintance， we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives． For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the 1980s， downshifting in the mid-’90s is not SO much a search for the mythical good life—growing your own organic vegetables，and risking turning into one—as a personal recognition of your limitations．

问答题The theory of social Darwinism generally claims that individuals, groups and peoples or cultures are subject to the same Darwinian laws of natural selection as are plants and animals. The theory holds that "superior" individuals or groups survived and succeeded while the inferior disappeared, with a consequent benefit to society, and that the existing order must be the natural one. Any individual, group or institution that survives the struggle to exist over a long period of time is regarded as having displayed evidence for its own "natural" superiority and legitimacy, similar to the Darwinian concept of "survival of the fittest". In history, this theory has been questioned because it could be easily used to justify political conservatism, imperialism, and racism.

问答题The recorded civilization of India is one of the longest in the course of world history, and its mythology, linked to its religions and to the development of its civilization, spans an even greater length of time. Unlike the mythology of most countries, particularly Western countries, Indian mythology is still a part of the living culture of the people on all levels of society, from the illiterate masses to the educated elite. Indian mythology is truly a living mythology, evolving as a consequence of historical circumstances like dynastic changes, economic conditions, and the resultant social upheavals experienced by the Indian people. In other words, the mythology changes to explain and record actual historical events.
