Part III Reading Comprehension (共30分，每题2分)
得分


Directions:
There are 3 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some
questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),
B), C), and D) You should decide on the best choice.

Then mark the corresponding
letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.
Cathy and Wayne are in their late 20’s, have been married five years, and are
childless. The last time a member of Cathy’s family asked, “When are you going to
start a family?” her answer was, “We’re a family!”
Cathy and Wayne belong to a growing number of young married couples who are
deciding not to have children. A recent survey showed that in the last five years the
percentage of wives aged 25 to 29 who did not want children had almost doubled. What
lies behind this decision which seems to fly in the face of biology and society?
Perhaps the most publicly outspoken childless couple are Ellen Peck and her
husband William. They are not against parenthood but against the social pressures that
push people into parenthood whether it is what they really want or not.
“It’s a life-style choice,” Ellen says. “We chose freedom and spontaneity (自
发性), privacy (清静) and leisure. It’s also a question of where you want to give your efforts
? within your own family or in the larger community. This generation faces serious














questions about the continuity of life on earth as well as its quality. Our grandchildren
may have to buy tickets to see the last redwoods (红杉) or line up to get their oxygen
ration (氧气量). There are men who complain about being caught in a traffic jam for
hours on their way home to their five kids but can’t make the association between the
children and the traffic jam. In a world seriously threatened by the consequences of
overpopulation we’re concerned with making life without children acceptable and
respectable. Too many children are born as a result of cultural pressure. And the results
show up in the statistics on divorce and child-abuse.”

41. What does the member of Cathy’s family mean by saying “When are you going to
start a family?”
A) When are you going to have children?
B) When are you going to get married?
C) When are you going to buy a house?
D) When are you going to move to a new house?

42. The number of childless young couples _____.
A) is decreasing
C) has more than doubled

43. “To fly in the face of” in the second paragraph means _____.
A) to run into B) to come across

44. Which of the following statements is true of the Pecks?
C) to follow D) to go against


B) is increasing
D) remains unchanged
