You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once. Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage. The typical pre-industrial family not only had a good many children, but numerous other dependents as well--- grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. Such “extended” families were suited for survival in slow paced __36_ societies. But such families are hard to __37__. They are immobile. Industrialism demanded masses of workers ready and able to move off the land in pursuit of jobs, and to move again whenever necessary. Thus the extended family _38_ shed its excess weight and the so-called “nuclear” family emerged --- a stripped-down, portable family unit _39__ only of parents and a small set of children. This new style family, far more _40__ than the traditional extended family, became the standard model in all the industrial countries. Super-industrialism, however, the next stage of eco-technological development, __41_ even higher mobility. Thus we may expect many among the people of the future to carry the streaming process, a step further by remaining children, cutting the family down to its more _42__ components, a man and a woman. Two people, perhaps with matched careers, will prove more efficient at navigating through education and social status, through job changes and geographic relocations, than the ordinarily child-cluttered family.

新编大学英语四级全真模拟试题（七）第4页 Section C（编者吴志丹） Directions: There are 2 passages in this section．Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A)，B)，C) and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answe Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre． 注意：此部分试题请在答题卡 2 上作答。 Passage One Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage. Beijing has the world’s least affordable rental housing, according to a survey of 15 global cities, with average prices more than 1.2 times average salaries. The report by the Global Cities Business Alliance, a UK-based not-for-profit organisation, raises fears over inclusive growth in a city that — according to one Chinese survey — this year surpassed New York to become the world’s billionaire capital. Soaring house prices, which rose 18 per cent in the year to March, and restrictions on non-residents buying houses until they have paid tax in Beijing for five years, make renting the only option for many of the city’s young adults and migrant workers. Beijing rent is nearly twice as expensive as its closest challenger, Abu Dhabi, according to the survey. Beijing scored the second-longest commute. High rents and urban inequality lead to longer commutes for service-sector workers who deliver location-specific services. The study found that hospital nurses, primary school teachers and bus drivers all faced rents of between 1.1 and 1.5 times their incomes. Rural-urban migration has put pressure on the rental market, especially as Beijing's neighbouring northern provinces lose their traditional industries of coal and steel. The city’s metropolitan area has doubled in population in the past 20 years. High rental prices damage the economy by locking up consumer spending power, the report argues, finding that a further 10 percent rise in rental prices would suck up about $3.5bn of consumption. 56. What are the restrictions for the young adults and migrant workers to buy houses in Beijing? A. people should have highly educated backgraound B. people have paid tax over half a decade C. people should have registered permanent residence D. people have owned his business for five years 57. What are the results and damage of high rents ? A. land shortage B. lacking of urban community attachment C. longer commutes and less consumption D. more happiness

C.A further 18 per cent rise in rental prices would suck up its consumption D.The house prices of Beijing have risen 18 per cent in the year to Ma Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. What is success?The accurate way is that each of us has ourown conept of success.To the t each of u is responsible for se our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily.Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorable environments in which to express these abilities,it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.

A further 18 per cent rise in rental prices would suck up its consumption D. The house prices of Beijing have risen 18 per cent in the year to March Passage Two Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage. What is success? The accurate way is that each of us has our own concept of success. To the extent that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily. Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorable environments in which to express these abilities, it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly. For some people, simply being able to live their life with a minimum of misery and suffering is considered a success. Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep, enjoys his frugal life with his family in the beauty of nature, and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of and accepted by him and his society. On the other hand, it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions, many of them seem to be miserable and consider themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own goals of success. Because not all ventures can be successful, one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success, but if one has self-confidence it would be unfortunate to set one’s goals at too low a level of achievement. A wise counselor once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration with his own professional success: “You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling. Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park, or riding the subway downtown,” The counselor added, “You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like, and to which you have given your best effort.” 61. In the first paragraph, the author implies______are essential in achieving success? A. ability and goals B. goals and determination C. ability and environment D. goals and environment
