XX年考研英语阅读理解习题及答案People do not analyze every problem they meet.Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem.They often aept the opinions or ideas of other people.Other times they begin to act without thinking;they try to find a solution by trial and error.However,when all these methods fail,the person with a problem has to start analyzing.There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem.For example,Sam’s bicycle is broken,and he cannot read it to class as he usually does.Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem.Before Sam can repair his bicycle.he must find the reason why it does not work.For instance,he must determine if the problem is with the gears,the brakes,or the frame.He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions.For instance,suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels.At this time.he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears.He can talk to his friends at the bike shop.He can look at his gears carefully.after studying the problem,the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution.Take Sam as an illustration.His suggestions might be:put oil on the gear wheels;buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones;tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem.Sometimes the final idea es very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way.Sam,for example,suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖)between the gear wheels.He immediately realizes the solution to his problem:he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested.Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly.In short,he has solved the problem.1.What is the best title for this passage?A)Six Stages for Repairing Sam’s Bicycle B)Possible Ways to Problem-solving C)Necessities of Problem Analysis D)Suggestions for Analyzing a

D)find a solution by trial or mistake 3.By referring to Sam’s broken bicycle,the author intends to.A)illustrate the ways to repair his bicycle B)discuss the problems of his bicycle C)tell us how to solve a problem D)show us how to analyses a problem 4.Which of the following is NOT true?A)People do not analyze the problem they meet.B)People often aept the opinions or ideas of other

D)in the end 1.B2.D3.C4.A5.C The poverty line is the minimum ine that people need for an aeptable standard of living.People with ines below the poverty line are considered poor.Economists study the causes of poverty in order to find solutions to the problem.As the general standard of living in the country rises,the poverty line does,too.Therefore,even with today’s relatively high standard of living,about 10 percent of the people in the United States are below the poverty line.However,if these people had stable jobs,they could have an aeptable standard of living.Economists suggest several reasons why poor people do not have jobs.For one thing,more than half of the poor people in the United States are not qualified to work.Over 40 percent of the poor people are children.By law,children less than 16 years old cannot work in many industries.A large number of poor people are old.Many panies do not hire people over 65 years old,the normal retirement age.Some poor adults do not look for jobs for a variety of personal reasons:they are sick,they do not have any motivation(动力).they have family problems,or they do notbelieve that they can find a job.Other poor people look for a job but cannot find one.Many poor adults never went to high school.Therefore,when they look for jobs,they have few skills that they can offer.At the present time,the government thinks it can reduce poverty in the country in the following ways.First,if the national economy grows,businesses and industries hire more workers.Some of the poor who are qualified to look for jobs may find employment.Then they will no longer be below the poverty line.Second,if society invests in the poor,the poor will bee more productive.If the government spends money on social programs,education,and training for poor people,the poor will have the skills to offer.Then it is more likely that they can find jobs.Finally,if the government distributes society’s ine differently,it raises some poor people above the poverty line.The government collects taxes from the non-poor and gives money to the poor.These payments to the poor are called welfare.In 1975 over 18 million people in the United States received welfare.Some economists are looking for better solutions to the poverty problem.However,at the present time,many people depend on welfare for a minimally aeptable standard of living.1.The author’s main purpose to write this article is.A)to define what the poverty line is B)to explain why some people live the poverty line C)to find solutions to the problem of poverty D)to show sympathy for those poor people 2.Which of the following is NOT true?A)Ten percent of the Americans live a poor life.B)Poor people are those who love below the poverty line.C)The poverty line rises as the general standard of living rises.D)The poverty line tends to be at the same level.3.More than 40 percent of the poor people are children.This is mainly because.A)they do not have enough motivation B)they are so young that they are deprived of chances to work C)they fail to get enough education D)they are very poor in health 4.Most of the American poor people are not qualified for employment because.A)they to not have any motivation to work B)they are not very self-confident C)they are too young or too old to work D)they have physical and family problems 5.We may conclude from the passage that.A)better solutions to the poverty problem are not yet found B)welfare will enable people to be rich C)poor people are bound to go out of the poverty line if they have chances to do business D)employment is the best solution to the poverty problem 1.C2.D3.B4.C5.A。
