单选题{{B}}Text 2{{/B}} In November 1965, New York was blacked out by an electricity failure. The authorities promised that it would not happen again. Pessimists were certain that it would occur again within five years at the latest. In July 1977, there was a repeat performance which produced varying degrees of chaos throughout the city of eight million people. In 1965, the failure occurred in the cool autumn and at a time of comparative prosperity. In 1977, the disaster was much more serious because it came when unemployment was high and the city was suffering from one of its worst beat waves. In 1965, there was little crime or looting during the darkness, and fewer than a hundred people were arrested. In 1977, hundreds of stores were broken into and looted. Looters smashed shop windows and helped themselves to jewelry, clothes or television sets. Nearly 4,000 people were arrested but far more disappeared into the darkness of the night. The number of policemen available was quite inadequate and they wisely refrained from using their guns against mobs which far outnumbered them and included armed men. Hospitals had to treat hundreds of people cut by glass from shop windows. Banks and most businesses remained closed the next day. The black-out started at 9:30 p.m., when lightning hit and knocked out vital cables. Many stores were thus caught by surprise. The vast majority of New Yorkers, however, were not involved in looting. They helped strangers, distributed candles and batteries, and tried to survive in a nightmare world without traffic lights, refrigerators, elevators, water and electrical power. For twenty-four hours, New York realized how helpless it was without electricity.

单选题{{B}}Text 2{{/B}} The period of adolescence, i. e. , the period between childhood and adulthood, may be long or short, depending on social expectations and on society's definition as to what constitutes maturity and adulthood. In primitive societies adolescence is frequently a relatively short period of time, while in industrial societies with patterns of prolonged education coupled with laws against child labor, the period of adolescence is much longer and may include most of the second decade of one's life. Furthermore, the length of the adolescent period and the definition of adulthood status may change in a given society as social and economic conditions change. Examples of this type of change are the disappearance of the frontier in the latter part of the nineteenth century in the United States, and more universally, the industrialization of an agricultural society. In modern society, ceremonies for adolescence have lost their formal recognition and symbolic significance and there no longer is agreement as to what constitutes initiation ceremonies. Social ones have been replaced by a sequence of steps that lead to increased recognition and social status. For example, grade school graduation, high school graduation and college graduation constitute such a sequence, and while each step implies certain behavioral changes and social recognition, the significance of each depends on the socio-economic status and the educational ambition of the individual. Ceremonies for adolescence have also been replaced by legal definitions of status roles, rights privileges and responsibilities. It is during the nine years from the twelfth birthday to the twenty-first that the protective and restrictive aspects of childhood and minor status are removed and adult privileges and responsibilities are granted. The twelve-year-old is no longer considered a child and has to pay full fare for train, airplane, theater and movie tickets. Basically, the individual at this age loses childhood privileges without gaining significant adult rights. At the age of sixteen the adolescent is granted certain adult rights which increases his social status by providing him with more freedom and choices. He now can obtain a driver's license; he can leave public schools; and he can work without the restrictions of child labor laws. At the age of eighteen they also can marry without parental permission. At the age of twenty-one the individual obtains his full legal rights as an adult. He now can vote, he can buy liquor, he can enter into financial contracts, and he is entitled to run for public office. No additional basic rights are acquired as a function of age after majority status has been attained. None of these legal provisions determine at what point adulthood has been reached but they do point to the prolonged period of adolescence.

单选题What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tells us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up--we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. Colors do influence our moods, there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides then any other bridge in the area--until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if bridge had been dole in pink or baby blue. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark grey. We often associate a particular color with a piece of music, a book, a pray, a person, a number, or a letter. Doesn't 3 look red and 4 yellow? At the beginning of this century a French poet wrote that for him the letter A was always black; E was white, I red, O blue, end U green. For someone else, U might be deep purple or lemon yellow. A tragic story makes you think of black, red, end gold, while love stories vary from red to pink--or may be light blue? And why did the black American composers of sad jazz music ceil the songs "blues"? Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day--or your life--with a new shirt or a few cans of paint. Remember also that you will know your friends end your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a Jot about your personality when you choose a pair of socks or a lampshade.

单选题Health food is a general term applied to all kinds of foods that are considered more healthful than the types of foods widely sold in supermarkets. For example, whole grains, fried beans, and com oil are health foods. A narrower classification of health food is natural food. This term is used to distinguish between types of the same food. Raw honey is a natural sweetener, whereas refined sugar is not. Fresh fruit is a natural food, but canned fruit, with sugars and other additives, is not. The most precise term of all and the narrowest classification within health foods is organic food, used to describe food that has been grown on a particular kind of farm. Fruit and vegetables that are grown in gardens, that are sprayed only with organic fertilizers, that are not sprayed with poisonous insecticides, and that are not refined after harvest, are organic foods. Meat, fish, dairy and poultry products from animals that are fed only organically grown feed and that are not injected with hormones are organic foods. In choosing the type of food you eat, then, you have basically two choices: inorganic, processed foods, or organic, unprocessed foods. A wise decision should include investigation of the allegations that processed foods contain chemicals, some of which are proven to be toxic, and that vitamin content is greatly reduced in processed foods. Bread is typically used by health food advocates as an example of a processed food. First, the seeds from which the grain is sprayed with a number of very toxic insecticides. After the grain has been made into flour, it is made white with another chemical which is also toxic. Next a dough conditioner is added, along with a softener. The conditioner and softener are poisons, and in fact the softener has sickened and killed experimental animals. A very toxic anti-fungal compound, is added to keep the bread from getting moldy. Other foods from the supermarket would show a similar pattern of processing and preserving. You see we buy our good on the basis of smell, color, and texture, instead of vitamin content, and manufacturers give us what we want, even if it is poisonous. The alternative? Eat health foods, preferable the organic variety.

单选题That afternoon Molly almost danced along the street, as she walked home with her father from the station. They had seen Mrs. Gibson and Cynthia off to London. She wished her stepmother would take herself off to London much more often. "Well now, Dad," she said, "I''m going to have you all to myself for a whole week. You must be very obedient. " "I hope you aren''t going to boss me, Molly. You''re walking me out of breath already. We mustn''t pass Mrs. Goodmays in our hurry. "They crossed the street to speak to Mrs. Goodmays, one of the Doctor''s patients. " We''re just been seeing my wife and her daughter off to London. They''ve gone up for a week. " "Dear me, to London, and only for a week!" Said Mrs. Goodmays, with surprise. "It seems hardly worth the packing. It''ll be lonely for you, Molly, without your stepsister. " "Yes," said Molly, suddenly feeling as if she ought to have taken this view of the case. " I''ll miss Cynthia. " "And you, Dr. Gibson, I hope you won''t feel like widower once again. You must come and have supper with me one evening. What about Tuesday?" Dr. Gibson felt a sharp blow on his leg from the toe of Molly''s shoe, but even so he accepted the invitation, much to the old lady''s satisfaction. A moment later Molly said to him, " How could you go and waste one of our precious evening! We''ve only got five now. I''ve been planning all sorts of things for us to do tonight. " "What sort of things?" "Oh, I don''t know. Things you used to like, "she looked at him boldly. "Forbidden things now. " Her father''s eyes lit up, but his face remained serious. " I''m not going to be pulled down, Molly. With hard work and sensible guidance I''ve reached a very fair height of civilized behavior, and there I''m going to stay. " "Oh, no, you''re not. We''re having bread and cheese for supper tonight, in armchairs in front of the TV! And you shall wear your dressing-gown at breakfast tomorrow — and every morning for a week! And you shall read the paper at the dining-table \ That''s only a start. I haven''t finished by a long way yet. "
