11．Renowned Chinese author Mo Yan has gained many new admirers after winning the 2012Nobel Prize in Literature．Several major publishing houses in China said they would include some of Mo's short stories in their textbooks for middle and high school students．
These announcements have given rise to fierce debate．Some criticize publishers for seeking fame and others wonder if middle school students have enough literary knowledge to truly appreciate Mo's works．Mo Yan has been a well-regarded writer in China for many years．But textbook publishers never showed their interest in his works before．Now they are all rushing to include Mo's short stories，weeks after the author won a Nobel prize•Their timing invites suspicion．
In contrast，supporters say that Mo's prose is beautiful and can inspire students'love for the Chinese language．
By having won a Nobel prize，Mo can have a very positive effect on getting more young people interested in literature．Including Mo's works in textbooks can draw the attention of young students and improve their literary skills．
So，what is your opinion？Should Mo Yan's works be featured in middle school textbooks？

68．From the text，we can learnB•
A．textbook publishers have been showing their interest in Mo's works
B．the inclusion of Mo's short stories in textbooks causes heated debate
C．Mo's works have been included to the textbooks for middle and high school students
D．criticizers think it unnecessary for middle school students to enjoy Mo's short stories
69．What does the underlined word‘‘they"in the second paragraph refer to？D
A．Announcements． B．Middle school students，C．Mo's works． D．Textbook publishers．
70．The author writes the text mainly forA．
A．collecting the readers'opinions
B．introducing Mo Yan's works
C．a(chǎn)rguing with the textbook publishers
D．encouraging students to improve their literary skills．

69．D．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)前一句"But textbook publishers never showed their interest in his works before"可知，they指的是Textbook publishers．故選D．
70．A．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一句"So，what is your opinion？Should Mo Yan's works be featured in middle school textbooks？"可知，作者意在收集讀者的意見(jiàn)．故選A．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文考察的是文學(xué)類(lèi)作品閱讀．此文也屬于比較說(shuō)明文．這類(lèi)文章是通過(guò)對(duì)比方法說(shuō)明問(wèn)題．在閱讀這類(lèi)文章時(shí)要善于把握全篇陳述的基本傾向．作者在談?wù)撘粋�(gè)有爭(zhēng)議的問(wèn)題時(shí)總要顧及到爭(zhēng)議的各個(gè)方面．通過(guò)比較來(lái)展開(kāi)各方觀點(diǎn)．

1．Directions：Read the passage carefully．Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words．
Sociologists have long recognised that organisations of less than 200 ndividuals can operate through the free flow of information among the members．Once their size goes beyond this figure，the organizations are getting less flexible．So it seems necessary to prevent total disorder resulting from failures of communication．
One solution to this problem would，of course，be to structure large organisations into smaller units of a size that can act as a group．By allowing these groups to build reliance on each other，larger organizations can be built up．However，merely having groups of，say，150will never of itself be a complete solution to the problems of the organization．Something else is needed：the people involved must be able to build direct personal relationships．To allow free flow of information，they have to be able to communicate with each other in a casual way．Maintaining too formal a structure of relationships inevitably prevents the way a system works．
The importance of this was drawn to my attention two years ago by the case of a TV station．Whether by chance or by design，it so happened that there were almost exactly 150people in the station．The whole process worked very smoothly as an organization for many years until they were moved into purpose-built accommodation．Then，for no apparent reason，the work seemed to be more difficult to do，not to say less satisfying．
It was some time before they work out what the problem was．It turn out that，when the architects were designing the new building，they decided that the coffee room where everyone ate their sandwiches at lunch times was an unnecessary luxury and so did away with it．And with that，they accidentally destroyed the close social networks that strengthened the whole organization．What had apparently been happening was that，as people gathered informally over their sandwiches in the coffee room，useful information was casually being exchanged．
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS．）
81．What size of an organization may lead to communication failures？Anorganizationofmorethan200individuals
82．What are the two solutions to the communication problem within a large organization？Structuringsmallerorganizationsandbuildingdirectpersonalrelationships．
83．After the TV station moved into new accommodation，its operationseemedtobemoredifficult/lesssatisfying．
84．From the case of the TV station，we can conclude it istheclosesocialnetworks/thefreeflowofinformation/thecausalcommunication that make（s） an organization more successful．

2．What Is Today's American Dream
They may not have called it the American Dream，but for centuries people have gone to America in search of freer，happier，and richer lives．But is today's American Dream a mythical concept or still a reality？
Isabel Belarsky's tiny Brooklyn apartment fills with the sound of her father's voice．Sidor Belarsky sings an Aria in Russian and 90-year-old Isabel，her lips painted an elegant red，sways gently to the song coming from her stereo．
Isabel speaks with pride about her father's talent and his success as an opera singer：Albert Einstein was such a fan she says that he invited Sidor to accompany him on his speaking engagements and would ask him to sing to the audience．
How the Belarskys came to be in America is an extraordinary tale that Isabel loves to tell．It was the offer of a six-month job by a Mormon college president，who had seen Sidor singing in Leningrad，that enabled the Belarskys to escape from Stalin's Russia in 1930．"Our dream was being in America，"Isabel says．"They loved it．My mother could never think of Russia，it was her enemy and my father，he made such a wonderful career here．"
Like generations of immigrants before them，the Belarskys came to America in search of freedom-to them the American Dream meant liberty．But Isabel says it promised even more．"The dream is to work，to have a home and to get ahead．You can start as a janitor and become the owner of the building．"
The American Dream is not written into the constitution but it is so ingrained in the national psyche that it might as well be．Many point to the second sentence in the Declaration of Independence-the"certain unalienable rights"that include"life，liberty and the pursuit of happiness"as the"official"version of the phrase．But it was actually in 1931that the term was popularized，when historian James Truslow Adams wrote in The Epic of America that the Dream means"a better，richer，and happier life for all our citizens of every rank"．
The concept of the American Dream has not stayed static．For European immigrants，like Isabel，fleeing persecution in the first half of the last century，the Dream was about a life without persecution．
But somewhere in the middle of the last century the dream changed．As America's post war economy boomed，the new arrivals wanted more than freedom-they wanted a share of the prosperity as well．
In the 1950s，TV commercials featured housewives proudly showing off kitchens filled with gleaming appliances．The quest for liberation became a quest for Coca Cola．As the century wore on，the materialistic slant of the dream overtook the political side．Dallas and Dynasty suggested this was a country where it was possible to become not just rich，but filthily rich．
Cheyanne Smith was shocked at the deprivation that greeted her in America．She arrived in New York from the Caribbean seven years ago．Having watched endless American TV shows as a child，she thought she knew what to expect when her family moved to Brooklyn．Instead，the deprivation of one of New York's poorest neighbourhoods shocked her．
"I thought this is not America because this is not what I see on television，"she says．Like Cheyanne，18-year-old Franscisco Curiel is also ambitious．He came from Mexico City three years ago to go to college here but he's worried that Brooklyn's schools aren't going to give him a good enough education．"The system is broken； we can't get the superior education that they supposedly want to give us，"he says．
Through the centuries America's immigrants have endured terrible hardship and sacrifice so that they and their children can get ahead．Perhaps it's not surprising to hear the members of the Bushwick youth group lament the multiple，low paid jobs that their parents must do simply to get the rent paid and put food on the table．What is startling is that these bright，ambitious youngsters just don't believe that talent and hard work are enough to ensure they will ever have a shot at that mythical American Dream．

66．Why did the Belarskys come to the US according to the passage？A
A．To seek freedom．
B．To seek wealth．
C．To seek good education．
D．To seek a good job．
67．What is the meaning of"the materialistic slant of the dream overtook the political side"in Paragraph 9？C
A．The American Dream means both material success and political freedom．
B．The American Dream means material success rather than political freedom．
C．The American Dream means more material success than political freedom．
D．The American Dream means more political freedom than material success．
68．What is Cheyanne Smith and Franscisco Curiel's attitude toward American Dream？B
A．Hopeful．  B．Disappointed．  C．Optimistic．  D．Neutral．
69．What can we know about the Bushwick youth group according to the last paragraph？B
A．They feel grateful that their parents did low paid jobs to raise the family．
B．They doubt that talent and hard work will make them realize their American Dream．
C．They have endured great hardship and sacrifice．
D．They are willing to do the low paid jobs to help pay their education．
70．What can be inferred from the passage？B
A．The American Dream is deeply-rooted in the national psyche．
B．The concept of the American Dream has gone through changes throughout the time．
C．American Dream is still firmly believed by the majority of the immigrants．
D．The concept of American Dream will remain unchanged in the next two decades．
