sociologists(社会学家)，every modern industrial society has some form of social stratification(阶层)Class，power and status are important in deciding peoples rank in society.Class means a persons economic position in society.A commonly used classification is lower class，middle class and upper class.While sociologists disagree on how these terms should be exactly defined，they do describe societies like the United States quite well.One study shows that 53% of Americans belong to the lower class,46% the middle class，and 1% the upper class.Interestingly，a surgeon earning $500,000 a year and a bus driver earning $50,000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class!Power refers to the amount of control a person has over other people.Obviously，people in positions of great power (such as governors) exercise(行使) big power，but people who take orders from others have less power.Power and class do not always go hand in hand，however.For example，the governor of a state has great power，but he or she may not belong to a corresponding(相应的) economic class.Generally，however，there is a relationship between power and class.To our knowledge，there arent too many people who arent millionaires in the US.Senate!Status is the honor or respect attached to a persons position in society.It can also be affected by power and class，but not necessarily so.For example，a university professor may have a high status but not belong to a high social class or have a lot of power over others.【解题导语】文章主要说明了人们在现代工业社会中的阶级、权力以及社会地位。1What can we learn about “the middle class” from Paragraph 2?APeople earning $50,000 a year belong to the middle class.BNearly half Americans belong to the middle class.CPeople generally consider bus drivers as the middle class.DSociologists have a clear definition of the middle class.答案B细节理解题。由文章第二段第三句中“.46% the middle class.”可知，B项正确。文中并未说出middle class的清晰定义，所以A、C、D三项的表述都是不恰当的。2According to the text，we know that _.Apower and class do not always correspond with each otherBstatus refers to a persons economic position in societyCpeople with high status have a lot of control over othersDclass is less important in deciding a persons social rank答案A推理判断题。由文章第三段第三句“Power and class do not always go hand in hand，however.”可知，A项正确。A项correspond with意为“与相符合”；B项status的定义在最后一段第一句；C项从最后一段最后一句可知是错误的；D项在文中找不到依据。3Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?(P：Paragraph)答案A文章结构题。文章第一段总述三者对一个人社会等级的影响，然后依次分述class，power和status三个因素。文章是总分式。故选择A项。B体裁：议论文话题：儿童教育词数：333难度：建议用时：8分钟Kids can be taught valuable lessons on nature from the time they are old enough to observe their surroundings.With the help of a parent, grandparent or caregiver, a small child can learn to explore parks, wooded areas and gardens.Parents and caregivers should take every available opportunity to introduce them to plant life, beneficial insects, wildlife and more.These types of lessons are important.One of the best ways to explore nature with a small child is on their level.Look for wildflowers, and point out their beautiful colors and patterns.Even a very small child can learn to recognize wildflowers.However, it is also important to teach a small child the importance of leaving nature untouched for others to enjoy.Leaving wildflowers alone will allow them to spread and continue their life cycle.They look beautiful in a vase, but they are even more lovely in their natural habitat.The world in between blades (叶片) of grass and under the leaves of flowers is seldom seen by human beings.When looking for ways to explore nature with a small child, take the time to get down on the ground and look for insects including ants, fireflies, ladybugs, earthworms and caterpillars.A child should be taught that living beings are not toys.They have feelings and needs.A small child should be taught that life is valuable to every living creature.Kids that are taught to respect nature will grow to be more caring adults.Plant life is also an important part of our environment, and it is fun to explore with a child of any age.Plant some vegetables or flower seeds when seeking additional ways to explore nature with a small child.If space is lacking, start a small container garden.Fill a pot with rich organic soil, and have the child help plant the seeds and care for the seedlings (幼苗) as they grow.Not only is it fun and educational, but it is also a great bonding experience and a way to positively influence a small and impressionable child.【解题导语】本文介绍了如何帮助孩子观察自然，了解自然，使他们长大后成为有责任心和同情心的人。4A kid should be taught valuable lessons on nature when _.Ahe shows interest in plantsBhe is old enough to go to schoolChe is able to walkDhe can observe things答案D细节理解题。根据第一段Kids can be taught valuable lessons on nature from the time they are old enough to observe their surroundings可知，答案为D。5When the kids are watching wild flowers, the author stresses the importance of_.Ateaching them how to grow themBtelling them to protect themCtelling them the patterns and colorsDteaching them how to recognize them答案B推理判断题。根据第二段However, it is also important to teach a small child the importance of leaving nature untouched for others to enjoy可推断，答案为B。6Kids should be taught to respect nature in order to _.Alet them be more caring after growing upBlet them know that life is hard for everyoneChelp them gain more knowledge and love scienceDtell them the right way of watching the world答案A细节理解题。根据第三段Kids that are taught to respect nature will grow to be more caring adults可知，答案为A。7In Paragraph 3, the author mainly tells us to_.Astop children from playing with insectsBprotect all the insects that we discoverCshow a child the world that they rarely seeDlet a kid know insects are beneficial to us答案C主旨大意题。根据第三段The world in between blades of grass and under the leaves of flowers is seldom seen by human beings和下文可知，本段主要告诉我们要让孩子观察另一个人们不太注意的世界，故答案为C。.书面表达假如你是某高三学生李华，最近你顺利地考入了理想中的大学北京大学。请根据以下要点，用英文给高中的英语老师黄老师写一封信。1告诉他你的喜讯；2感谢黄老师在高中期间给你的帮助；3对黄老师的评价；4谈谈你上大学以后的打算。注意：1.词数100左右(书信的开头和结尾已写好，不计入总词数)；2可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。Dear
