阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后面的字数要求）。 [1]If you are a recent social science graduate who has had to listen to jokes about unemployment from your computer major classmates, you may have the last laugh. There are many advantages for the social science major because this high-tech ”Information Age” demands people who are flexible （灵活的）and who have good _______. [2]There are many social science majors in large companies who take up important positions. For example, a number of research studies found that social science majors have achieved greater managerial success than those who had technical training or pre-professional courses. Studies show that social science majors are most suited to change, which is the leading feature of the high speed, high-pressure, high-tech world we now live in. [3]Social science majors are not only experiencing success in their long-term company jobs, but they are also finding jobs more easily. A study showed that many companies had filled a large percentage of their entry-level positions with social science graduates. The study also showed that the most sought-after （广受欢迎的）quality in a person who was looking for a job was communication skills, noted as “very important” by 92 percent of the companies. Social science majors have these skills, often without knowing how important they are. It is probably due to these skills that they have been offered a wide variety of positions. [4]Finally, although some social science majors may still find it more difficult than their technically trained classmates to land the first job, recent graduates report that they don’t regret their choice of study. 1.What’s the main idea of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words.)
2.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? For instance，a study showed that social science majors had held more important positions,compared to those technically trained students.
3.Fill in the blank with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 5 words.)
4.What have you learned about the social science majors in finding a job in this high-tech "Information Age"?
5.Translate the underlined sentence in the second paragraph into Chinese.

Taste is such a subjective matter that we don’t usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone’s preference is that it’s one person’s opinion. But because the two big cola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola-are marketed so aggressively, we’ve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting. We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi. Diet Coke, or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they’d have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand. We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them with four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants’ choices with what mere guesswork could have accomplished. Getting all four samples right was a tough test but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly. Both groups did better than chance would predict, but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price. 1.According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to___________. A. show that a person’s opinion about taste is mere guesswork B. compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks C. find out the role taste preference plays in a person’s drinking D. reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers 2.The statistics recorded in the preference tests show that____________. A. there is not much difference in taste between Coca-Cola and Pepsi B.few people had trouble telling Coca-Cola from Pepsi C.people`s tastes differ from one another D.Coca-Cola and Pepsi are people`s two most favorite drinks 3.It is implied in the first paragraph that A.the competition between the two colas is very strong B.blind tasting is neccssary for identifying fans C.the purpose of taste test is to promote the sale of colas D.The improvement of quailty is the chief concern of the two cola companies 4.The underlined word "burnout" here refers to the state of A.being seriously burnt in the skin B.Being badly damaged by dire C.Being unable to burn for lack of fuel D.Being unable to function because of too much use 5.The author`s purpose in writing this passage is to A.emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other B.Recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas C.Show that taste preference is highly subjective D.Argue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy

A 17-year-old boy，caught sending text messages in class，was recently sent to the vice principal`s office. The vice principal，Steve Gallagher，told the boy he needed to focus on the teach-er，not his cellphone. The boy listened politely and nodded，and that`s when Mr.Gallagher noticed the student`s fingers moving on his lap. He was testing while being scolded for texting. " It was a subconscious act，" says Mr. Gallagher，who took the phone away. " Young people today are con-nected socially from the moment they open their eyes in the morning until they colse their eyes at night.It`s compulsive." A study this year by psychology students at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain,Ga.,found that the more time young people spend on Facebook，the more likely they are to have lower grades and weaker study habits. Heavy Facebook users show signs of being more sociable，but they are also more likely to be anxious，hostile or depressed. Almost a quarter of today`s teens check Facebook more than 10 times a day，according to a 2009 survey by Common Sense Media,a nonprofit group that monitors media`s impact on families.Will these young people get rid of this habit once they enter the work force，or will employers come to see texting and `social-network cheeking` as accepted parts of the workday?Think back,When today`s older workers were in their 20s,they might have taken a break on the job to call friends and make after-work plans.In those earlier eras,companies discouraged non-business-related calls,and someone who made personal calls all day risked being fired.It was impossible to imagine the constant back-and-forth texting that defines interactions among young people today.Educators are also being asked by parents，students and educational strategists to reconsider their rules. "In past generations，students got in trouble for passing notes in class. Now students are good at texting with their phones still in their pockets，" says 40-year-old Mr.Gallagher,the vice principal,"and they`re able to communicate with someone one floor down and three rows over. Students are just fundamentally different today.They will take suspensions rather than give up their phones." 1.The underlined word "a subconscious act"in the first paragraph refers to an act . A.on purpose B.without realization C.in secret D.with care 2.Young people addicted to the use of Facebook . A.are good at dealing with the social relationships and concentrate on their study B.have high spirits and positive attitudes towards their life and work C.have been influenced mentally in the aspects of behaviors and habits D.are always in bad mood and have poor performance in every respect 3.Through the situation of today`s older workers in their 20s,it can be inferred that A.the employers will not accept young people`s sending text messages B.a cellphone is a must for today`s older workers instead of young people C.The employers prefer older workers to young people D.the employers will find it hard to control the interaction among young people 4.Mr. Gallagher reminds us that the students in the past and those today_______. A. like to break rules and have the same means of sending messages B. are always the big problem for the educations and their parents C. like sending text messages but those today do it in a more secret and skillful way D. cannot live without a cellphone 5.What’s the best title of the passage? A. Teenagers and Cellphones B. Teenagers’ Texting Addiction C. Employers and Teenagers D. Teenagers’ Education
