1. [单选题]What do we leam about Ana Castro from the last paragraph?

阅读材料,回答下面的题目。Deport them or notIn a country that defines itself by ideals,not by shared blood,who should be allowed to come,work and live here?In the wake of the Sept.1 1 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing.On Dec.11,2001,as part of the effort to increase homeland security,federal and local authorities in 14 states staged“Operation Safe Travel”-raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification(身份证明).In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests.But those captured were anything but terrorists,most of themillegal immigrants from Central or South America.Authorities said the undocumented workers’illegal status made them open to blackmail(讹诈)by terrorists.Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods.Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent,“We’re saying we want you to work in these places,we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are,and then when it’s convenient for us,or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security,especially after Sept.1 1,then you’re disposable.There are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons,”Anderson said.If Sept.1 1 had never happened.the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone oil quietly living in America.probably indefinitely.Ana Castr0,a manager at a Ben&Jerry’s ice cream shop at the airport,had been workin9 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid.Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation(驱逐出境).Castro’s case is currently waiting to be settled.While she awaits the outcome,the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben&Jerry’s.According to the author,the United States claims to be a nation__________.

3. [单选题]Which of the following statements is correct?

根据以下材料回答下面的题目:Benefited or HurtFor the most part, it seems, workers in rich countries have little to fear from globalization, and a lot to gain. But is the same thing true for workers in poor countries? The answer is that they are even more likely than their rich country counterparts to benefit, because they have less to lose and more to gain. Orthodox economics takes an optimistic line on integration and the developing countries. Openness to foreign trade and investment should encourage capital to flow to poor economies. In the developing world, capital is scarce, so the returns on investment there should be higher than in the industrialized countries, where the best opportunities to make money by adding capital to labor have already been used up. If pool countries lower their barriers to trade and investment, the theory goes: rich foreigners wilt want to send over some of their capital.If this inflow of resources arrives in the form of loans or portfolio investment, it will supplement domestic savings and loosen the financial constraint on additional investment by local companies. If it arrives in the form of new foreign controlled operations, FDI, so much the better: this kind of capital brings technology and skills from abroad packaged along with it, with less financial risk as well. In either case, the addition to investmentought to push incomes up, partly by raising the demand for labor and partly by making labor more productive. This why workers in FDI receiving countries should be in an even better position to profit from integration than workers in FDI sending countries. Also, with or without inflows of foreign capital, the same static and dynamic gains from trade should apply in developing countries as in rich ones. This gain from trade logic often arouses suspicion, because the benefits seem to come from nowhere. Surely one side or the other must lose. Not so. The benefits that a rich country gets though trade do not come at the expense of its poor country trading partners, or vice versa. Recall that according to the theory, trade is a positive sum game. In all these transactions, sides exporters and importers, borrowers and lenders, shareholders and workers can gain.According to the passage, who may be reasonably afraid of the globalization?

A. A rich country gets benefits through trade at the expense of its poor country trading partners
B. A poor country gets benefits through trade at the expense of its rich country trading partners
C. In trade one side or the other must lose because the benefits must come from somewhere.
D. In trade it is possible for every part involved winning at the expense of nobody


4. [单选题]German people prefer extensive green roof systems to intensive ones.

回答下面的题目:Green Roof ResearchThe concept of green roofs is basically about growing plants on roofs, thus helping to replace the green footprint that had been destroyed due to the construction of the building. Green roofs are the most prevalent( 流行 ) in Germany, which is widely regarded as the leader in green roof research.The green roofs that are used these days can be classified as "extensive" and "intensive" systems. Extensive green roofs use mosses, grasses and herbs, which are tolerant to droughts. These plants do not need much maintenance, can be grown in a layer of substrate ( 土层 ) that can be as shallow as 1.5 inches, and generally are inaccessible to the public. In contrast, a wide range of species of plants are grown on intensive green roofs, such as shrubs ( 灌木 ) and even trees, which require deeper substrate layers, and are usually grown on flat roofs. They need intensive maintenance, and are usually areas that resemble parks which are accessible to people.There are several benefits of adopting green roof technologies. Apart from the obvious psychological and aesthetic (美学的 ) benefits of garden-like environments surrounding you, some of the common economic and ecological benefits are: a reduction in the consumption of energy; air and water purification; recovering green spaces; and the mitigation ( 缓解) of the heat island effect in urban areas.The green roof research that is currently ongoing is focused on evaluating the species of plants that are suitable to be grown on roofs, the methods of propagation ( 繁殖 ) as well as establishment, nutrient (养料 ) and water requirement, substrates, and the quantity and quality of water runoff. The evaluation criteria of plant species are: at what rate they can be established their capacity to withstand invasive weeds; tolerance of cold and heat; tolerance of drought conditions; capacity of persistence and survival.A number of experiments are being conducted on roof platform simulations at various research centers. These sites are generally outfitted with equipment, which are used to measure temperatures at different depths of the growing substrates, and the rate and volume of the runoff of stormwaters from each of the platforms.Green roof technology is representative of a completely new market for landscape contractors, and all roofs that currently exist and the future ones to be constructed are the potential market-a market that is too huge to be overlooked.It is estimated that around 10 percent of the flat roofs in Germany are green.

A. Right
