同等学力在职英语水平测试试卷基础班综合测试一（2）

答案：
Paper Two

Part I
Section A

美国经济这些日子以来一直不景气。本季度的增长率大概将近乎于零。失业率在上升。股票市场依然呆滞。而且现在很多人都在担心国外日益加剧的经济萧条将影响美国。由于全球各地出现麻烦的地方越来越多，投资者已经在得出结论投资最安全的地方还是美国。 那么又如何解释美元不怕任何压力的特点呢？按照各种经济逻辑而论，当联邦储备局宣布降低税率时，美元应当贬值。但任何一个美国旅游者都知道，美钞与欧元的汇率一直是固定的，今年与日元的汇率尽管降低了6%。欧洲和亚洲投资者利用他们的积蓄购买美元，即使他们在自己的国家得到的利息还可能更高些。
Section B
Life is full of dangers, but we do not always think them through well. The first time we are aboard a plane, we feel intense fear of it crashing even though we are assured that it is the safest means of travel that has ever existed. Yet we do not worry when we get into a car, which is much more dangerous. To a certain extent, this is natural. We are inclined to fear the unknown. To establish how much danger we are exposed to in various situations and help us to make up our minds in a more intelligent way, a new science called" risk assessment" has now been developed. Its purpose, of course, is to reduce risks to a minimum.

Changing Criteria For Good College Students

Probably some years ago, good college students simply meant students good at academic work. They worked very hard just to be top students. they spent most of their campus time in classrooms, reading-rooms or laboratories. They thought about nothing but their studies.But the criteria for good college students are changing now. It is true that god marks continue to be some students’ dream, yet there is a growing number of students who are concerned much more about things other than academic achievement. They try some other subjects like art and music. They are also involved in such activities as speech contests, argumentation on current problems. Moreover, some students even become businessmen.
Generally speaking, the changes are not bad. As times are different now, and job market demands personnel with both intelligent and non-intelligent qualities such as creativity, the ability to apply theory to practice. Therefore, students today should be better prepared for changes and competition upon graduation.
