Passage One
Questions1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that, its own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination, and their psychological needs and capacities received little consideration.

Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable and necessarily multifaceted (多才多艺的) members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian (功利主义的) organisms. This acceptance of children as equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social and public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.
United States is a two-way transaction between parent and child rather than a one-way, parent-to-child training program. As a consequence, socializing children and living with them over a long period of time is for parents a mixture of pleasure, satisfaction, and problems.

Passage four
Questions1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
The Leaning Tower of Pisa has defied (违背) the laws of gravity for seven and a half centuries. Every year, on June 19th, a professor from the University of Pisa climbs to the bell tower and measures the increase in the slant with special instruments. And every year the professor makes the same report: the tower has leaned a fraction of an inch more. Last summer, the 125-foot-high tower was leaning an incredible 15 feet out of line. Scientists say that unless a way is found to stop the tilt, the tower will collapse in less than 80 years.
The tower is leaning because the soft subsoil of Pisa will not support it. Its foundation is sinking into the soil at an angle, causing the tower to lean. Since a tremor could shake the foundation loose, the ringing of the tower’s bells was forbidden in 1959. Trucks are not allowed to pass in the neighborhood of the tower for this same reason.

D) there is only one way to save the Leaning Tower of Pisa
2. It can be inferred from the passage that last summer the tower was found tilted further by _____.
A) 15 feet C) a fraction of an inch
B) more than one inch D) several inches
3. The tower tilts more and more because ________.
A) the ringing of the bells causes a tremor
B) there are passing trucks nearby
C) it is built on soft soil
D) its foundation has been shaken loose
4. Why is the tower described as defying the laws of gravity?
A) It had resisted shaking tremors for hundreds of years.
B) It was built on soft ground.
C) It leans a fraction of an inch more every year.
D) Scientists think that it should have collapsed long ago.
5. Truck traffic has been forbidden in the neighborhood of the tower ______.
A) to protect the drivers
B) to prevent accidents
C) as a precaution against shaking tremors
D) because trucks damage the foundation
