Rock music began in American in the late 1950’s. It was not only a new musical form, but a forum for the American youth to express their ideas of the world and life. In this forum, the stars sang out the attitudes of the youth towards civil rights, war and peace, the disaffection of their society, and a range of emotions between love and hate. All in all, in this form, the American youth redefined the beliefs and feelings of their society. The typical representatives of the early rock music were Elvis Presley, singer and poet Bob Dylan, the Beatles, the rolling Stones and so on. They were the culture heroes whom the young people worshipped.

The American young people in 1960’s were a generation. They found that the affluent American society was filled with poverty, injustice and hypocrisy. They didn’t trust the adult world that didn’t belong to them and refused to take their beliefs and values. Many young people took active part in the struggle which protested against poverty, racial discrimination and Vietnam War. Some people even tried to overthrow this world by armed revolution. Many other young people took passive ways to show their disaffections. They took drugs, refused to take any responsibilities and lived a parasitic way of life. Or they escaped to the frontiers and lived a primitive of life.

Mathilda had been ill for three days. Her mother had given her some medicine, but it didn’t do any good. So they had to ask the doctor to come. There had been a number of cases of diphtheria in Mathilda’s school and two of them had been dead. When the doctor arrived at Olson’s home, he wanted to examine Mathilda’s throat first. But no matter how he coaxed, she wouldn’t open her mouth. So the doctor had to get the tongue depressor into her mouth. But Mathilda reduced it to splinters. In order to protect Mathilda herself and other children, the doctor had to make sure whether she had diphtheria or not, so that he could treat her in time. Letting Mathilda’s father hold her wrists, he tried his best to open her mouth and found she really had diphtheria. From this story we can think such a question that something in life can’t only depend on self willingness. Under some circumstances, certain force seems necessary..

美国妇女对美国的发展做出了重要贡献, 但她们却一直受到各种形式的性别歧视.政治上,她们做的是那些乏味却又决定决定选举胜败的琐碎事, 很少有机会升到高层职位, 得到好处的是男人. 经济上, 大部分妇女做的是那些工资低和没有前途的工作, 她们的工资也永远低于做同样工作的男人. 很多美国人不承认这是歧视妇女,说这只是 社会分工的不同.很多妇女甚至也满足于自己作为次等公民的角色. 所以作者说, 妇女要获得真正的平等将是一场长期而艰巨的斗争.

Key F


The American women made great contributions to the nation’s development , but they received different forms of prejudices because of their sex .
In politics , they did all the tedious details that made the differene between victory and defeat on election day and seldom had the chance to reach a better position , while the men reaped收割 the rewards .
In economy , most women did the lower-paying and dead –end jobs and they were paid less than the men for the same job
Many American people didn’t admit it was prejudice against women . They said it was only a different division of labour in society . Even many women were content with their roles as second-class citizens . So the author said it was a long painful struggle for the women to get real equality .

F. Translate the following into English :

人们的注意力跨度很短， 因此， 为抓住观众的注意力， 电视必须通过多样化/新奇性和动作不断地提供刺激。 这样做的结果是， 新闻过于简短，不能提供有效的交流；很多新闻节目就像“机关枪发射碎片”，破坏了思维的连贯性。这种迎合注意力跨度短的做法， 还会降低文化水平。避免了复杂性，也就牺牲了思考。 成年美国人中“功能性文盲”人数不断增长， 他们甚至不知道如何回答招聘广告或读懂药瓶上的说明， 电视对此起码应负一部分责任。

Key F

People have a short attention span . So in order to capture the viewer’s attention , television must provide constant stimulation through variety , novelty , action and movement . The result of doing so is that news is too brief and results in inefficient communication . Many news programs are like “ machine –gunning with scraps “and fight coherence of mind. The appeal to the short attention span will decivilize as well. To avoid complexity means to give up thinking . The “ functionally illiterates “ among adult Americans are continually increasing . They even do not know how to answer the want ad. Or understand the instructions on a medicine bottle . At least television should be responsible for part of it .

The need for laws on euthanasia can’t be dodged for much longer. Euthanasia is a taboo in most countries. In these countries doctors can only practice it secretly. But it is openly practiced in some countries, such as Holland. Right now more and more countries are going over the arguments about legalizing euthanasia.
When a patient suffers from illness for a long time and there is no hope of curing it , why do we let him prolong the throes? Why can’t we practice euthanasia to stop he throes?
But if we legalize euthanasia, there will be a danger. Someone may use it for killing. All in all, euthanasia is the question we can’t dodge.

But when I go to bed , I can do anything but sleep . I can compose grand symphonies , paint magnificent pictures and write good essays . The artificial ways of inducing sleep are legion很多 , but they are of no avail . When I can’t go to sleep at night , I imagine a dialogue with a friend till I either laugh or fall asleep . I find this is a good way to go to sleep .
