21. (阅读理解题)

The poverty line（贫困线）is the minimum income that people need for an

acceptable standard of living. People with incomes 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 acceptable 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 companies 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 become 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 income 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 (福利)for a

minimally acceptable standard of living.

22. (阅读理解题)

There is much more water than land on the surface of the earth. The seas and

oceans cover nearly four-fifths of the whole world, and only one-fifth of it is land. If

you traveled over the earth in different directions, you would have to spend much

more of your time moving on water than moving on roads or railways. We

sometimes forget that for every mile of land there are four miles of water.

There is so much water on the surface of our earth that we have to use two

words to describe it. We use the word SEAS to describe those parts of the water

surface which are only a few hundred miles wide, and the word OCEANS to

describe the huge areas of water which are thousands of miles wide and very deep.

A sea such as the Mediterranean Sea provides an easy way of travelling from

one country to another. Ships are frequently crossing the small seas of the world in

all directions. Oceans separate the great continents. Until steamships were

invented, a voyage across a wide ocean was a long and sometimes very dangerous

journey. Oceans have only been used for travelling and trading within the last few

hundred years. Even now, ships only use those parts of oceans which provide the

shortest way across. The other parts of oceans are very seldom visited.

You can understand that we do not know much about the oceans because of

their huge size. Another reason why we know so little about them is because of

their great depth. At the bottom of an ocean there is black darkness. Sunlight

cannot reach the great depth.
