Abby Subark is a mother of two from Boston. “For my kids, I’m nervous. I don’t know if they’ll be able to achieve their American dream.” She may be right. More than hard work or education, the best way to get rich in America is to be born rich.
It is the case that somebody who is in the upper third of income, poor scores, in the bottom on tests when they are in eighth grade, is more likely to go to college and finish college than a poor kid with the top scores. That’s what the working persons’ children are faced with.
The Economic Policy Institute finds it would take a poor couple with 2 children 9 or 10 generations to achieve middle class status. That’s about 200 years. The typical feature of American opportunity has always been the ability to do better than your parents. But compared with similar developed countries, the United States ranks fifth out of six for so-called intergenerational mobility (变动).
If you look at the mechanisms (机制) for upward mobility that were so readily available 50 years ago, they are becoming out of reach, like plentiful factory jobs with good wages and affordable education and health care.
White families are twice as likely as blacks to be upwardly mobile. For most people in America today, where you end up depends on where you start.
If you started in the middle-income class, about 40 to 45 percent of what you are making right now is due to the fact that your parents were in the middle-income class. The rest is up to you.
But for the millions of people who find themselves below the poverty line and the millions more who are the working poor, their starting point for the American dream leaves them painfully far away from the middle class.
71. The main idea of the passage is _______.
A. How the middle class comes about in the U.S.
B. It’s hard to realize the American dream for the poor.
C. Wealth and social status depend on family background.
D. Upward mobility in America is never easy.
Which of the statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. People used to have job opportunities and welfare for upward mobility.
B. A great many poor people can hardly realize their American dream.
C. You can make all your dreams come true in America if born rich.
D. Rich kids are more likely to go to college than poor kids.
73. The underlined sentence “where you end up depends on where you start” most probably means _______.
A. Your starting point cannot determine your destination.
B. Only a high goal can ensure success.
C. One’s birth has nothing to do with his fate.
D. One’s family lays solid foundation for his future achievements.
Why is Abby Subark nervous?
A. Her kids don’t want to compare with other rich kids in achievements.
B. Her kids don’t want to achieve success at all.
C. Her kids can achieve success through hard work and education.
D. Her kids can’t reach their goal without a rich family.
What can we infer after reading the passage?
A. Poverty causes people much pain.
B. People below the poverty line can never be in the middle class.
C. Lower starting point makes it hard for people to realize their dream.
D. Poor people’s starting point is too low.

Everyone gathered around and Paddy read out loud, slowly, his tone growing sadder and sadder. The little headline said: BOXER RECEIVES LIFF SENTENCE.
Frank Cleary, aged 26, professional boxer, was today found guilty of the murder of Albert Gumming, aged 32, laborer, last July.The jury (陪审团) reached its decision after only ten minutes, recommending the most severe punishment to the court.It was, said the Judge, a simple case.Cumming and Cleary had quarreled violently at the Harbour Hotel on July 23rd and police saw Cleary kicking at the head of the unconscious Gumming.When arrested, Cleary was drunk but clear-thinking.
Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour.Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, "Just don't tell my mother."
" It happened over three years ago," Paddy said helplessly.No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do."Just don't tell my mother," said Fee numbly (麻木地)."And no one did! Oh,God' My poor, poor Frank!"
Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said."Fee, pack your things.We'll go to see him."
She half-rose before sinking back.her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead."I can't go," she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there."It would kill him to see me.I know him so well—his pride, his ambition.Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants.We've got to help him keep his secret.What good will it do him to see us?"
Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes.Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself.He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children.Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank look it away.But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.
So he said, "Well, Fee, we won't go.But we must make sure he is taken care of.How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?"
There was no excitement in the eyes, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks." Yes, Paddy, do that.Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out.Perhaps it would ease Frank to think for certain that we don't know."

We all make excuses.

But the successful ones are those who can kill the excuses like the miserable maggots they are.

I’m too tired. I don’t have the time. I don’t feel motivated. I’d rather do nothing. I don’t have the money, equipment, space. I can’t because …

We’ve all made the excuses. Here’s how to kill them.

See the positive. Excuses are usually made because we don’t feel like doing something — we’re accentuating the negative. Instead, see the fun in something, the joy in it. And maintain a positive attitude, or you’ll never beat the excuses.

Take responsibility. Excuses are ways to get out of owning up to something. If we don’t have the time, money, equipment, etc., then it’s not our fault, right? Wrong. Take responsibility, and own the solution.

Find a solution. Just about every problem has a solution. Don’t have time? Start with just 5-10 minutes. Make the time. Wake earlier. Do it during lunch. Don’t have the energy? Do it when you have higher levels of energy. You’re smart. Figure out the solution.

 See your goal. This is your motivation — your reason for doing it. Sure, you could just lay on the couch, but if you think about why you really want to pursue a goal, you’ll be motivated. Visualize that goal and just get started.

Be accountable. Have a workout partner, a project partner, a team, someone to report to. If you have to meet a coach or partner, you’re more likely to do something.

Watch this. Then go an do it.  

1.How many tips mentioned in the text to prevent excuses?

A. Four   B. Three   C.Six  D. Five

2.The second paragraph is developed mainly by _______

A. providing common examples.

B. following the order of time.

C. making comparisons of excuses.

D. analyzing common excuses

3.The definition of the underlined word” visualize” would most probably be ______

A. to view the outline of something by means of an X-ray.

B. to weaken or spoil the quality or efficiency of something. 

C. to form a mental image of something incapable of being viewed.

D. to express the formal image of something capable of being seen.

4.Why do you need a partner according to the passage?

A. because you are likely to make a report to someone.

B. because it’ll be more possible for you to do something wih a partner.

C. because you need a coach to help you do something.

D. because you like to do something with a partner or a coach.

 

Doctors recognize obesity as a health problem. So why is it so hard for them to talk to their patients about it?

The results of two surveys, one of primary care physicians and the other of patients, found that while most doctors want to help patients lose weight and think it is their responsibility to do so, they often don't know what to say.

So while doctors may tell patients they are overweight, the conversation often ends there,said Christine C. Ferguson, director of the Stop_Obesity_Alliance.Without being told about options for diabetes, she said,“Doctors don't feel they have good information to give.They felt they didn't have adequate tools to address this problem.”

The lack of dialogue hurts patients,too.The patient survey, of over 1,000 adults,found that most overweight patients don't even know that they' re too heavy.Only 39 percent of overweight people surveyed had ever been told by a health care provider that they were overweight.

Of those who were told they were obese,90 percent were also told by their doctors to lose weight,the survey found. In fact most have tried to lose weight and may have been successful in the past—and many are still trying,the survey found.And many understand that losing even a small amount of weight can have a positive impact on their health and reduce their risk of obesity?related diseases like hypertension and diabetes.

Dr. William Bestermann Jr.,medical director of Holston Medical Group,in Kingsport, Tenn. , which ranks the 10th in obesity among metropolitan areas in the United States,said the dialogue had to be an ongoing one and could not be dropped after just one mention of the problem.“If you're to be successful with helping your patients lose weight,you have to talk to them at actually every visit about their progress,and find something to encourage them and coach them,” he said.

He acknowledged that many doctors tend to be not optimistic.

“Part of this is that there's this common belief,and doctors are burdened by it,too,that overweight people are weakwilled and just don't have any willpower and are self?indulgent and all that business,”he said.“If you think that way, you're not going to spend time having a productive conversation.”

1.What is the“Stop Obesity Alliance”most probably in Paragraph 3?

A.An organization of doctors specializing in obesity.

B.An organization of patients suffering from obesity.

C.A research group that conducts special surveys about overweight people.

D.A research group dealing with doctor?patient relationship.

2.How many of the patients surveyed have been advised by their doctors to lose weight?

A.About 350.       B.About 390.

C.About 900.       D.1,000.

3.What can be inferred about obesity patients in Paragraph 5?

A.They are not as hopeless as doctors think they are.

B.Most of them have tried hard to lose weight, but in vain.

C.Without their doctors' constant coaching, there is little chance of their succeeding in losing weight.

D.Most of them have just given up their hope of becoming less heavy.

4.According to the passage, which factor contributes to the lack of dialogue between doctors and patients?

A.Most doctors just never think of warning their patients about their weight problem.

B.Many doctors find it difficult to persuade overweight people to lose weight.

C.Most patients are too weak?willed to do anything about their weight.

D.Many patients tend not to trust their doctors about their weight problem.

5.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A.Obesity in the US

B.Trouble of Overweight Americans

C.Talk More,Help Better

D.Doctors or Patients—Who to Bear More Blame?
