 “Poor but honest.” “The deserving(值得帮助的)poor.”There words always come to my mind when I think of “the poor.”But I also think of people who.perhaps through alcohol(酒) or drugs.have ruined not only their own lives but also the lives of others in order to give way to their own pleasure.Perhaps alcoholism and drug addiction(上上)really are “diseases.”as many people say.but my own feeling—based,of course,not on any serious study—is that most alcoholics and drug addicts belong to the “undeserving poor.”And that is largely why I don’t give spare change to beggars.

But surely among the street people there are also some who can rightly be called “deserving.”Deserving what?My spare change ?Or simple the govement’s assistance?It happens that  I have been brought up to believe that it is proper to make contributions to charity(慈善机构).but if I give some change to a beggar .am I making a contribution to charity and thereby helping someone .or .am I perhaps simply encouraging someone not to get help ?Or ,maybe even worse .am I supprting a cheat?

If one believes in the value of private charity. One can either give to needy people or to charitable organizations.In giving to a beggar one may inded be helping a person who baly needs help.but one cannot be certain that one is giving to a needy person.In giving to an organization, on the other hand,one can feel that one’s money is likely to be used wisely.True,facing a beggar one may feel that this particular unfortunate person needs help at this moment—a cup of coffee or a sandwich—and the need will not be met unless I put my pocket right now.But I have come to think that the beggars whom I meet can get along without my spare change,and indeed perhaps they are actually better off for not having money to buy alcohol or drugs.

 I know nothing about these beggars,but it’s my impreession that they simply prefer begging to working.I am not generalizing about street people.I am talking about the people whom I actually meet.That’s why I do not give “spare change,”and I don’think I will in the future.

64.What does the author think of beggars who take drugs?

A.　　  They should be given a cheek-up.

B.　　  They really need money to live.

C.　　  They have no pleasure in life.

D.　　 They are not worth helping.

65.Why doesn’t the author give money to street people?

A.　　  He doesn’t think they need help.

B.　　  He does’t have enough money to give.

C.　　  He is not convinced they will use it rightly.

D.　　 He belives they can get help from the government.

66.In the second paragraph,the author presents his idea by　　.

A.　　  asking questions for people to think about

B.　　  giving examples to support his argument

C.　　  raising questions and answering them

D.　　 expressing his opinions directly

67.Which of the following opinions does the author accept?

A.　　  Drug addiction is a disease.

B.　　  Some street people are poor and needy.

C.　　  Most beggars have reccived enough help.

D.　　 Charitable organizations handle money properly.

D

While parents, particularly mothers, have always been attached to their infants (婴儿)， societal conditions frequently made this attachment difficult to maintain (保持). First of all, the high infant death rate in the premodem times meant that such attachments often ended in hopelessness. Perhaps to prevent the sadness that infant death caused, a number of societal pruetices developed which worked against early attachment of mother and child.

One of these premodem　attachment-discouraging practices was to leave infants unnamed until they had survived into the second year. Another practice that discouraged  maternat(母亲的)attachment was tightly wrapping(包裹) infants. Wrapping effectively prevented the close physical interactions like stroking (抚摸)and kissing that are so much a part of modem mothers’ and fathers’ affection for their infants.

 A third practice which had the same distancing offcet　was wet-nursing. Breast-feeding (母乳哺育)was not popular among the well-to-do in the early modern times; infants were often fed by wet nurses hired for the purpose. In some places. such as nineteenth-century France, city infants were sent to wet nurses in the country. Often a wet nurse would feed her own child first, leaving little milk for the city infunt-who. in many cases, died. In Rouen, the death rate for children sent to a wet nurse was 35 percent.

68.Babies were unnamed until they were two so that 　　　 .

A. an old social custom could be kept up

  　　B. maternal attachment could be maintained

C. their parents would not be too sad if they died

D. their parents would not be too sad if they died

69. Why were babies wrapped?

　　　 A. To protect them from the cold.

　　　 B. To distance their mothers from them.

　　　 C. To make them feet more comfortable.

　　　 D. To make it easy for their mothers to hold them.

70. Wet nurses were women who 　　　　　.

　　　 A. bubysat city infants

B. fed babies of other families

C. sent their babies to the country

D. failed to look after their babies

71. Which is the best title　for the passage?

　　　A. Societal Conditions in Premodem Times

B. Praetices　of　Reducing Matemal Attachment

C. Poor Health Serviee and High Infant Death Rate

D. Differenees between Moderm and Premodern Parents

　　　 A study published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to avoid unhealthy foods change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the University of California at  Irvine asked volunteers to answer some questions on their personalities (个性) and fend experienees. “One　week later,” Loftus says，“We told those people we’d fed their answers into our smart computer and it came up with an account of their early childhood experiences.” Some accounts included one key additional detail (细节):“You got sick after eating strawberry iee-eream.” The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured(人为促生的) memory through leading questions—Who were you with? How did you feel? By the end of the mudy. Up to 41% of those given a false memory betieved strawberry ice-cream once made them sick. and many said they’d avoid eating it.

　　　 When Loftus published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to make them remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you don’t cat on a regular hasis, But most important, it is likely that false memories can be implanted (准粉) only in people　who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to a patient  is immoral, even if a doetor believes it’s for the patient’s benefit.

　　　 Loftus says there’s nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children. “I say, wake up—parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years, and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent diseases caused by fatness and all the other problems that come with that, you might think that’s a more moral lie. Decide that for yourself.”

72. Why did Loftus ask the volunteers to answer some questions?

A. To improve her computer program.

B. To find out their attitudes towards food.

　　　C. To find out details she can make use of.

　　　 D. To predict what food they’ll like in the future.

73. What did Loftus find out from her research?

　　　 A. People believe what the computer tells them.

　　　 B. People can be led to believe in something false.

　　　 C. People tend to forget their childhood experiences.

　　　D. People are not always aware of their personalities.

74. According to the study, people may stop having a certain food if they 　　　 .

　　　 A. learn it is harmful for health

　　　B. lie to themselves that they don’t want it

C. are willing to let doctors control their minds

D. think they once had a bad experience of　eating it.

75. What is the biggest coneem with the method?

A. Whether it is moral.

B. Who it is best for.

C. When it is effective.

D. How it should be used.
