20. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项。

The works of Shakespeare and Wordsworth are "rocket-boosters" to the brain and better than the other self-help books, researchers will say this week．
Scientists, psychologists and the English experts at Liverpool University have found that reading the works of Shakespeare and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and triggers moments of self- reflection．Using scanners, they monitored the brain activity of volunteers as they read the works by William Shakespeare, William Word8worth, T．S Eliot and other classical writers．
They then "translated" the texts into more "straightforward", modern language and again monitored the readers' brains as they read the words．Scans showed that the more "challenging" articles and poetry set off far more electrical activity in the brain than the modem versions．Scientists were able to study the brain activity as it responded to each word and record how it "lit up" as the readers came across unusual words, surprising phrases or difficult sentence structures．This "lighting up" of the mind lasts longer than the initial electrical spark, shifting the brain to a higher speed, encouraging further reading．
The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases the activities in the right side of the brain, an area concerned with "autobiographical memory", helping readers to reflect on their own experiences in light of what they have read．The experts said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books．
Philip Davis, an English professor who has worked on the study with the university, will tell a conference this week: "Serious literature acts like a rocket - booster（火箭助推器）to the brain．”
"The research shows the power of classical literature to shift mental pathways, to create new thoughts, shapes and connections in the young and the old alike．"
66．The author mentioned Shakespeare and Wordsworth in Paragraph one to ．
A．show their great achievements B．attract our interest in literature C．introduce the topic of the text D．encourage us to read their works 67．According to the text, reading classical works can ．
A．help deal with some physical problems B．benefit our mind and thinking C．improve our reading skills D．help learn more about history
68．The scientists and experts did the experiment by
A．scanning the readers' brain activities B．reading works of different writers
C．lighting up the activities of the brains D．inve8tigating the habits of the readers
69．We can learn from Paragraph 4 that reading poetry
A．is concerned with the right side of the brain
B．has the same effects as reading self-help books
C．helps you forget the things in the past
D．makes you more serious and objective
70．What might be the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To introduce some great writers in England．
B．To present a study on brain activities．
C．To introduce a research on reading classics．
D．To show the power of classical literature．

21. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

You hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesn’t feel good. Why doesn’t ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.
The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly
e veryone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty (贫穷) was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not o
f ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.
To Galbraith, materialism (物质主义) had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didn’t really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessary bad.”
It’s often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else is standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich — overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most people’s incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” because their rising incomes often don’t satisfy their rising wants — for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.
The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemployment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear they’ve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.
Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.
Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.
Should we be surprised? Not really. We’ve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.
41. The Wealthy Society is a book ________.
A. about poverty in the past
B. written by Louis Uchitelle
C. indicating that people are becoming worse off
D. about why happiness does not rise with wealth
42. According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because ________.
A. materialism has run wild in modern society
B. they are in fear of another Great Depression
C. public spending hasn’t been cut down as expected
D. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly
43. Why do people feel“squeezed”when their average income rises considerably?
A. They think there are too many overpaid rich.
B. There is more unemployment in modern society.
C. Their material demands go faster than their earnings.
D. Health care and educational cost have somehow gone out of control.
44. What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposable American” ?
A. People with a stable job.
B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.
C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.
D. People who have a sense of security because of their rising incomes.
45. What has wealth brought to American society?
