2016 Text 2(英语⼆)美国⼀种⻦类濒危
Biologists estimate that as many as 2 million lesser prairie chickens — a kind of bird
living on stretching grasslands — once lent red to the often gray landscape of the
midwestern and .
But just some 22,000 birds remain today, occupying about 16% of the species' historic
range.
The crash was a major reason the U. S (USFWS) decided to
formally list the bird as threatened.
"The lesser is in a desperate situation," said USFWS Director Daniel
Ashe.
Some environmentalists, however, were disappointed.
They had pushed the agency to designate the bird as "endangered," a status that
gives federal officials greater regulatory power to crack down on threats.
But Ashe and others argued that the "threatened" tag gave the federal government
flexibility to try out new, potentially less confrontational conservations approaches.

Would a Work-Free World Be So Bad?
Fears of civilization-wide idleness are based too much on
the downsides of being unemployed in a society premised on
the concept of employment.
A 1567 painting by Pieter Bruegel the Elder depicts a
mythical land of plenty, where people grow idle in the absence
of work. Wikimedia * Ilana E. Strauss* Jun 28, 2016 People have
speculated for centuries about a future without work, and today
is no different, with academics, writers, and activists once again
warning that technology is replacing human workers. Some
imagine that the coming work-free world will be defined by
inequality: A few wealthy people will own all the capital, and the
masses will struggle in an impoverished wasteland.

The Impact of the Internet on Interpersonal
Communication。
In the past few decades, the rapid development of the
Internet has brought about significant changes in the way
people communicate with each other. While the Internet has
undoubtedly made communication more convenient and
efficient, it has also had a profound impact on
interpersonal communication. In this essay, I will explore
the positive and negative effects of the Internet on
interpersonal communication and discuss how we can strike a
balance between the two.
On the one hand, the Internet has revolutionized the
way people communicate with each other. With the click of a
button, we can now send instant messages, emails, and video
calls to friends and family who are thousands of miles away. This has made it easier for people to stay in touch with

2016 Text 4(英语⼆)美国年轻⼈眼中的 "成功路径"
Against a backdrop of drastic changes in economy and population structure,
younger Americans are drawing a new 21st-century road map to success, a latest
poll has found.
Across generational lines, Americans continue to prize many of the same traditional
milestones of a successful life, including getting married, having children, owning a
home, and retiring in their sixties.
But while young and old mostly agree on what constitutes the finish line of a
fulfilling life, they offer strikingly different paths for reaching it.
Young people who are still getting started in life were more likely than
to prioritize personal fulfillment in their work, to believe they will advance their
careers most by regularly changing jobs, to favor communities with more public
services and a faster pace of life, to agree that couples should be financially secure

2016考研英语已在昨天下午落下帷幕,今年英一考题的传统阅读部分在选项设计方面难度与往年持平。下面笔者就阅读第二篇进行深度解析。
第二篇阅读选自2014年11月15日the guardian发表的名为“Actionable Business
Architecture for Smarter Cities”的文章,就题材来说属于商业经济类,主要内容是英国社会中民众以及党派对于城镇和乡村建设的不同看法与政策。
文章后五道考题中两道细节题,一道推理题,两道态度题,其比例与往年第二篇相比趋于稳定,但在难度上略有下降。
首先是第26题是一道细节题。根据题干“英国大众对于乡村的观点”,可定位于文章的第一段。从文章第一段的后半段能得出:英国人民在民意调查中将“乡村”和王室、莎士比亚以及英国国民保健制度并列选为英国让他们最为自豪的四个方面,但是这种观点得到的政治支持却极为有限。A选项“is not well reflected in politics”在政治中没有得到很好的体现是对原文意思的同义替换,故选A。
第27题也是一道细节题。根据题干很明确能回文定位到文章第二段。该段通过第一句的“a century ago”和后面的“later”可知是在做古今对比。题干中问的是“now”,所以重点锁定在对比中的后半部分,而这部分中“They don’t make countryside any more, and every
year concrete consumes more of it.”一句表明现在的National Trust已背离了它原始的初衷,它之前的那些成就已经消失了。D选项gradually destroyed正是对这一意思的表述,故选D。
第28题同样是一道推理判断题。回文定位到第三段,该段主要讲了各大党派对于这个观点(及第一段中提到的观点)的态度:基本都不赞同。最后一部分“only Ukip, sensing its
