In 1972 there were critics who said that the State's action in allowing unemployment to rise was a faithless act, a breaking of the social contract between society and the worker. Yet in the main any contribution by employers to unemployment such as laying off workers in order to introduce technological changes and maximize profits tended to be ignored. And it was the unemployed who were accused of failing to honor the social contract, by not fulfilling their duty to society to work. In spite of general concern at the scale to the unemployment statistics, when the unemployed were considered as individuals, they tended to attract scorn and threats of punishment. Their capacities and motivation as workers and their value as members of society became suspect. The unemployed were accused of being responsible for their own workless condition, and doubts were expressed about the State' s obligation either to provide them with the security of work or to support them through Social Security.
Underlying the arguments about unemployment and the unemployed is a basic disagreement about the nature and meaning of work in society. To what extent can or should work be regarded as a service, not only performed by the worker for society but also made secure for the worker by the State, and supported if necessary? And apart from cash are there social pressures and satisfactions which cause individuals to seek and keep work, so that the workless need work rather than just cash?
What the author proposes to examine is ______.
A.how far the unemployed are to blame for their failure in working and how far it is the State' s fault
B.to what extent the State should insist on the unemployed working if they fail to do so
C.whether being at work is a social duty which the State should ensure everybody carries out
D.whether work should be obligatory, and if so, whether the State or the individual is responsible for the enforced obligation

Two Traits of a Successful College Student
First-time college students don't realize the reality shock they will receive when they get to college. High school and college atmosphere are extremely different in many ways and college students face many new challenges. To get through college successfully, all first-time college students must be dedicated and independent.
Dedication is a primary part of being successful in college. Students must work hard and take action to learn at a college level. Assignments can't be left until the last minute like they might have been in high school. College students must be willing to speak up in class and ask questions when they don't understand. Dedication means setting priorities for success; dedication means putting off going out with friends and caring about producing the best work possible. Dedicated students will do their work and do it well, spending hours reading textbooks, reviewing notes, and revising essays.
However, having dedication is not the only trait college students need to survive. College students must also be independent. (Supply the missing details)_____________________________________________.
College students need to know that being independent is a skill to acquire for college success, as well as life-long success.
College is hard work. Most first-time college students will struggle with the new experience, yet by being dedicated and independent, they will thrive in the college world.

The specialist understands one field; his concern is with technique and tools; he is a "trained" man; and his educational background is properly technical or professional. The generalist—and especially the administrator—deals with people; his concern is with leadership, with planning, and with direction giving. He is an "educated" man; and the humanities are his strongest foundation. Very rarely is a specialist capable of being an administrator. And very rarely is a good generalist also a good specialist in a particular field. Any organization needs both kinds of people, though different organizations need them in different proportions. It is your task to find out, during your training period, into which of the two kinds of jobs you fit, and to plan your career accordingly.
Your first job may mm out to be the right job for you—but this is pure accident. Certainly you should not change jobs constantly or people will become suspicious of your ability to hold any job. At the same time you must not look upon the first job as the final job; it is primarily a training job, an opportunity to understand yourself and your fitness for being an employee.
There is an increasing demand for ______.
A.people who are specialists and generalists as well
B.people whose job is to organize other people's work
C.generalists whose educational background is either technical or professional
D.specialists whose chief concern is to provide administrative guidance to others

听力原文: About 70 million Americans are trying to lose weight. That is almost 1 out of every 3 people in the United States. Some people go on diets. This means they eat less of certain foods, especially fats and sugars. Other people exercise with special equipment, take diet pills, or even have surgery. Losing weight is hard work, and it can also cost a lot of money. But why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight?
Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But are Americans really fat?
Almost 30 million Americans weigh at least 20 percent more than their ideal weight. In fact, the United States is the most overweight country in the world. "The stored fat of adult Americans weighs 2.3 trillion pounds," says University of Massachusetts anthropologist George Armelages. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.
Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of diet books. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, dozens of new books like these are written. Each one promises to get rid of fat.
