  • [单选题]阅读材料,回答{TSE}题。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.{TS}According to the author,the United States claims to be a nation__________.

  • [单选题]阅读材料,回答{TSE}题。Government Policies and EconomyWhile he was off on his l978 tour,Americans were becoming disgusted with their lot as all“emerging second—class nation”,Wilson says.They began to see that incentives had to be restored to the economy.For instance,the capital gains tax was cut,an extraordinary turn—about.If it had been predicted before he went away in May,he would have said it was simply inconceivable as inconceivable as the prospect of Resorts going up1,000 percent.This momentous transformation in the U.S.should soon bring about a huge bull market. In the l940s and l950s,the last time price earning multiples were at these low levels,the investing public expected that there would be another great postwar depression.Instead,aRer the beginning of l953 it became apparent that there would not be one,and price-earnings multiples got so low this time that investors felt that the country was drifting into socialism.That drift,however,may be reversing direction.Wilson believes that the bankruptcy of New York City means the discrediting of big government,that as a result there will be less government,and that things in general will go much better.From l980’s depressed levels the market could rise to twenty times doubled earnings or almost fivefold in five to seven years.Wilson believes that he’ll be worth hundreds of millions of dollars before it’s over.{TS}From paragraph l,we can infer that Resorts is__________.

  • [单选题]The etic approach is concerned with__________
  • 根据以下材料回答下面的题目:The Emic and Etic ApproachesResearchers who are unfamiliar with the cultural and ethnic groups they are studying must take extra precautions to shed any biases they bring with them from their own culture. For example, they must make sure they construct measures that are meaningful for each of the cultural or ethnic minority groups being studied.In conducting research on cultural and ethnic minority issues, investigators distinguish between the emic approach and the etic approach. In the emic approach, the goal is to describe behavior in one culture or ethnic group in terms that are meaningful and important to the people in that culture or ethnic group, without regard to other cultures or ethnic groups. In the eric approach, the goal is to describe behavior so that generalizations can be made across cultures. If researchers construct a questionnaire in an emic fashion, their concern is only thatthe questions are meaningful to the particular culture or ethnic group being studied. If, however, the researchers construct a questionnaire in an etic fashion, they want to include questions that reflect concepts familiar to all cultures involved.How might the emic and etic approaches be reflected in the study of family processes? In the emic approach, the researchers might choose to focus only on middle-class White families, without regard to whether the information obtained in the study can be generalized or is appropriate for ethnic minority groups. In a subsequent study, the researchers may decide to adopt an eric approach by studying not only middle-class White families, but also lower-income White families, Black American families, Spanish American families, and Asian American families. In studying ethnic minority families, the researchers would likely discover thatthe extended family is more frequently a support system in ethnic minority families than in White American families. If so, the emic approach would reveal a more different pattern of family interaction than would the etic approach, documenting that research with middle class White families cannot always be generalized to allethnic groups.According to the first paragraph, researchers unfamiliar with the target cultures are inclined to__________

  • features shared by various cultures or ethnic groups

  • 解析:【解析】第二段第三句和最后一句清楚地表明了“the eric approach”为什么样的研究目的服务。因此,C项为答案。
