Test99Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Most shoplifters agree that the January sales offer wonderful opportunities for the hard-working thief. With the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help yourself to one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as “hoisting”。www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99But the hoisting game is not what it used to be. Even at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goods.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99As if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in court.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Selfridges was the first big London store to install closed-circuit video-tape equipment to watch its sales floors. In October last year the store won its first court case for shoplifting using as evidence a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dresses. It was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipment.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99When the balls, called sputniks, first make an appearance in shops it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shoplifters. Their somewhat ridiculous appearance, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, certainly make the theory believable. www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99It did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respect. Soon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Brian Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume into her bag.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99“As she turned to go,” Chadwick recalled, “she suddenly looked up at the ‘sputnik’ and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained on her because it is completely hidden, but she must have had a feeling that I was looking at her.”www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99“For a moment she paused, but then she returned to counter and started putting everything back. When she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store.”www.test99.com

Test99Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99There is a new type of small advertisement becoming increasingly common in newspaper classified columns. It is sometimes placed among “situations vacant”， although it does not offer anyone a job, and sometimes it appears among “situations wanted”， although it is not placed by someone looking for a job, either. What it does is to offer help in applying for a job.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99“Contact us before writing your application”， or “Make use of our long experience in preparing your curriculum vitae or job history”， is how it is usually expressed. The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service is, of course, a reflection on the current high levels of unemployment. It is also an indication of the growing importance of the curriculum vitae (or job history), with the suggestion that it may now qualify as an art form in its own right.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99There was a time when job seekers simply wrote letters of application. “Just put down your name, address, age and whether you have passed any exams”， was about the average level of advice offered to young people applying for their first jobs when I left school. The letter was really just for openers, it was explained, everything else could and should be saved for the interview. And in those days of full employment the technique worked. The letter proved that you could write and were available for work. Your eager face and intelligent replies did the rest.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Later, as you moved up the ladder, something slightly more sophisticated was called for. The advice then was to put something in the letter which would distinguish you from the rest. It might be the aggressive approach. “Your search is over. I am the person you are looking for”， was a widely used trick that occasionally succeeded. Or it might be some special feature specially designed for the job interview.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99There is no doubt, however, that it is increasing number of applicants with university education at all points in the process of engaging staff that has led to the greater importance of the curriculum vitae.www.test99.com

Test99Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”。 Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.www.test99.com

www.test99.com
Test99Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99The age of gilded youth is over. Today’s under-thirties are the first generation for a century who can expect a lower living standard than their parents.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Research into the lifestyle and prospects of people born since 1970 shows that they are likely to face a lifetime of longer working hours, lower job security and higher taxes than the previous generation. www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99When they leave work late in the evening they will be more likely to return to a small rented flat than to a house of their own. When, eventually, they retire it will be on pensions far lower in real terms than those of their immediate forebears.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99The findings are revealed in a study of the way the ageing of Britain’s population is affecting different generations.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Anthea Tinker, professor of social gerontology at King’s College London, who carried out much of the work, said the growth of the proportion of people over 50 had reversed the traditional flow of wealth from older to younger generations.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99“Today’s older middle-aged and elderly are becoming the new winners,” she said. “They made relatively small contributions in tax but now make relatively big claims on the welfare system. Generations born in the last three to four decades face the prospect of handing over more than a third of their lifetime’s earnings to care for them”。 www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99The surging number of older people, many living alone, has also increased demand for property and pushed up house prices. While previous generations found it easy to raise a mortgage, today’s under-thirties have to live with their parents or rent. If they can afford to buy a home it is more likely to be a flat than a house.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Laura Lenox-Conyngham, 28, grew up in a large house and her mother did not need to work. Unlike her wealthy parents, she graduated with student and postgraduate loan debts of ￡13, 000. She now earns about ￡20,000 a year, preparing food to be photographed for magazines. Her home is a one-bedroom flat in central London and she sublets the lounge sofa-bed to her brother.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99“My father took pity and paid off my student debts,” she said. “But I still have no pension and no chance of buying a property for at least a couple of years—and then it will be something small in a bad area. My only hope is the traditional one of meeting a rich man.”www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99Tinker’s research reveals Lenox-Conyngham is representative of many young professionals, especially in London, Manchester, Edinburgh and Bristol.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test9926. By saying “the growth of the proportion of people over 50 had reversed the traditional flow of wealth from older to younger generations” (Lines 23, Para. 5), Anthea Tinker really means that . www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99A) currently wealth flows from old generation to younger generationwww.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99B) traditionally wealth flows from younger generation to old generationwww.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99C) with the increasingly big population of over 50, the trend arises that wealth flows from younger generation to old generationwww.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99D) with more and more people of over 50, traditions have been reversedwww.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test9927. Why are today’s older middle-aged and elderly becoming the new winners?www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99A) Because they made relatively small contributions in tax, but younger generation will possibly hand over more than a third of their lifetime’s earnings for the care of them.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99B) Because they contributed a lot in tax and now can claim much on the welfare system. www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99C) Because they made small contributions, but now can make money easily.www.test99.com
www.test99.com
Test99D) Because they outnumber younger generation and enjoy more privileges in the present society.www.test99.com

Test99If parents bring up a child with the aim of turning the child into a S1 , they will cause a S2. According to several leading S3 psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too S4 of what the parent expects, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great S5 to children. However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are ambitious in a sensible way, the child may S6 in doing very well — especially if the parents are very S7 of their child.www.test99.com

Test99Part II Reading Comprehensionwww.test99.com
Test9911．细节理解题该题问考生“一月份对shoplifters（从超市偷东西的小偷）是美妙的月份，原因是 。”解答该题应定位在第一段第二行，“with the shops so crowded and the staff so busy（商店如此拥挤，营业员十分忙碌）…”。C项应该是正确答案。A项表示：他们不需要等候营业员服务。B项表示：他们不需要以往做贼的经验。D项表示：一月份的清仓销售为他们提供了绝妙的机会。该选项与题干的“美妙月份”是同样的意思，没有回答具体的原因。www.test99.com
Test9912．细节理解题问题问这些悬挂在天花板上的小球的功能是什么。依据第三段“..., they can now be filmed at work and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in court.”（作案时被摄制下来，并且被迫在法庭上观看），可以确定，选项B应为正确答案。A项说“来监视最令人中意的商品”，文中未强调这一点。文章第五段确实谈到了当这些闪烁不定的小球刚亮相时，许多人认为是用来吓唬人的。但随后的第六段对此进行了否定，所以C项“用外表来吓唬小偷们”不是正确答案。前面讲到这些小球是用来摄像的，而小球本身不可能作为证据指控shoplifters。所以D项也不对。www.test99.com
Test9913．细节推论题该题有一定难度。B）项说“该设备能够吓跑偷盗者”不是本题要回答的问题。本题主要干扰项体现在C、的D两项。C项说“其他商店搞明白了该设备的功能”。D项说“这种证据被（法庭）接受了”。依据题干，答案应定位在文章第四段，尤其是最后一句“It was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipment.”其中最关键的词应该是“test case”（判例案件），说明该诉讼案件的判例可供以后类似案件的判例作为比照，直接导致其他商家纷纷安装相似设备是因为这种证据（录像带）被法庭接受了。据此，D项为正确答案。www.test99.com
Test9914．细节推论题依据文章第七段，偷香水的女人不可能看到对着她的camera，因为“it is completely hidden”。所以C项错。B项在前面题目中就已排除。第六段提到detective Brian Chadwick坐在监控室，D项也不对。再依据第七段第一、的二行，可推断该妇女猜到了这些小球是干什么的。所以A项正确。www.test99.com
Test9915．推论题该题干扰项主要在B、的D两项。该妇女在离开商店前返回到柜台，把包里的东西放回，明确说明她有偷东西的企图，只是离开时看到这些小球才突然停下来。所以D项是不对的。www.test99.com
Test9916．细节理解题该题有一定难度。根据题干，解答该题应定位在第一段。第二行说“它有时放在‘situations vacant’（招聘）栏目…，”其中招聘加了了引号，再加上随后的让步从句明确否定了给人提供工作，所以A项应排除。第三行说“它有时放在‘situations wanted’（求职）栏目…，”随后的让步从句也明确否定了D项。而选择正确答案应根据最后一句话“What it does is to offer help in applying for a job.”B项正确。C项“把现有的工作分成各种类型”文章没有提及，也应排除。www.test99.com
Test9917．细节理解题 解答该题只需正确理解第二段第二行起的一句话“The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service, of course, is a reflection on the current high levels of unemployment.”（这种特别服务的出现和成功反映了当今的高失业率。）这正是C项的内容。该题属倒着考题型。www.test99.com
Test9918．细节理解题 最关键的提示句应该是第三段第三行起的一句话“The letter was really just for openers, it was explained, everything else could and should be saved for the interview.”言外之意，在信中不必写得太详细，应该在得到面试机会时才透露更多细节。D项为正确选项。www.test99.com
Test9919．细节理解题文章第四段第一行中的“as you moved up the ladder”对应了题干中的“as one went on to apply for more important jobs”。因此，随后的内容即为答案：“Something slightly more sophisticated was called for. The advice then was to put something in the letter which would distinguish you from the rest.”A项正确。B）项说“有关申请人个性的隐含信息”；C）项说“申请人申请工作时相对于其他人的优势”；这两项均不正确；D）项表示“用主动积极的方法偶尔玩点花招”只是引人关注的其中一种方法，不如A具有概括性。www.test99.com
Test9920．单句理解题A)项说“男人女人离家出走是为了交流”与文中最后一段第2句矛盾。文章第二段中提示job history也就是curriculum vitae。问题问个人履历为什么重要。学生只要正确理解最后一段，就可做出正确选择，最后一句实际上是一强调句型：it is...that...，“it is”后的内容也即是B项的内容，所以B项正确。A、的C、的D项文中都没有涉及，均应排除。www.test99.com
Test9921．细节理解题 问题问规定最高租金可能会导致什么结果。文章第一段明确指出，landlords（房东）收取租户的租金有了最高限额，所以他们的利润受到影响，也可能导致他们投资其他行业，鉴于此，C、的D两项都是错误的。B项“使租房为家的人担忧”文中没有涉及，也不对。依据第一段最后一句话“..., the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.”可知A项为惟一选项。www.test99.com
Test9922．细节理解题 依据第一段第四行“However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects.”可断定C项正确。A、的B、的D诸项都含绝对意味，都不符合文中意思。www.test99.com
Test9923．细节理解题 解答该题只要准确理解第二段的含义，尤其从第三行开始“However, if the minimum is high, ...Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment.”此题较简单。www.test99.com
Test9924．主旨题 本文从rent control和最低工资控制两方面讨论了政府控制可能造成的后果。进一步说，许多政府行为可能保护某些利益，但从长远看，也会带来许多问题。B项正确。A项说：（文章叙述了）供需关系；C项说：（文章叙述了）政府控制的必要性；D项说：（文章叙述了）摆脱政府控制的紧迫性。文章并没有深入谈及这三项内容，显然不能成为文章主旨。www.test99.com
Test9925．细节判断题 依据第四段第二行“The predictions may be correct only if ‘other things are equal’.”可得知A项是对的。从第二段可得知规定最低工资会使得雇主雇用更少的工人，会考虑用机器替代工人，也就会导致更多的人失业，所以B项应该是可以成立的说法。C项的内容实际上就是A项的另一种说法，也可成立。依据第四段内容，可得知D项不正确。经济理论应该有相当参考价值，只是还需考虑方方面面的因素。www.test99.com
Test9926．语义题 该题较简单，只需正确理解句子中“reverse”一词，它的意思是“反转，逆转，彻底转变”。那么传统上社会财富是从老一代流向年轻人，而现在这种现象反转了，即社会财富从年轻人流向老年人。C项为正确答案。www.test99.com
Test9927．细节推论题 该题的答案出现在文章第六段。原因有二：这些老人过去在tax方面贡献甚小，而现在他们享受的社会福利份额甚多，在过去三四十年中出生的人将面临把他们一生的三分之一多的所得用于照料这些老年人的前景。A项正确。B项中的“a lot”有误。C项中的“make money easily”文章没有提及。D项的内容也没有涉及。均应排除。www.test99.com
Test9928．细节理解题 问题问促使房价上升的因素是什么。依据第七段第一、的二行可知：老年人数量越来越多且大多单独居住，他们需要更多的住房，于是促使房价上升。这些正是D项内容，所以D为正确选择。C项说：对年轻人来说申请抵押很容易，有误，依据是该节后半部分内容。A、的B两项文章没有涉及。www.test99.com
Test9929．细节理解题 该题较简单。只需正确理解第八段第三行“..., preparing food to be photographed for magazines.”（为杂志配制要拍照的食物），D项正确。www.test99.com
Test9930．主旨题 文章开头就说：金色青春的时代已经过去了。如今这一代30岁以下的年轻人，是一百年来头一批只能期待低于父辈生活水准的人了。后面的篇幅更深入、的具体、的详细地探讨了这一主题。因此C项：英国三十岁以下的年轻人的生活可能会越来越艰苦，是对文章主题的恰当的概括。A项中的“miserable”（悲惨的）一词无法推断出。B项本身并不错，只是不是文章的主旨。老年人在当今社会是受益者，但不能说他们享受着极高的生活水准。所以，A、的B、的D诸项都不是恰当的选择。www.test99.com

Test99Is Frustration a Bad Thing?www.test99.com
Test99According to The New Oxford Dictionary of English, frustration, by definition, means the feeling of being upset or annoyed, especially because of inability to change or achieve something. Since frustration seems to be a negative feeling, some people may be tempted to think that frustration is bad for people. They believe that constant frustration may cause serious mental health problems . People suffering from such psychological problems often resort to violence or suicide, which poses a big threat to the people around them and thus causes instability to the whole society.www.test99.com
Test99However, others hold a different view. They maintain that it is rather beneficial to people. It goes side by side with success. It inspires people to overcome hardships and difficulties and achieve the final success. People with this view even go so far as to say that no frustration, no success. They often cite Thomas Edison as a case in point.www.test99.com
Test99From my perspective, frustration itself can not be regarded as good or bad. It is people’s approach to it that matters a lot. Frustration is part of our life experience. In our process of growing up, we may inevitably experience it when confronted with situations that don’t come up to our expectations. It is a test of our courage when it befalls on us. If we let it control us, we may fall into the abyss of being inflicted by serious psychological problems. But if we harness it and take it as our source of inspiration, we may ultimately enjoy the glory of success. Therefore, it is safe to say that it is improper to view frustration as good or bad and that it is our attitude toward it that makes much differencewww.test99.com
