       About 90 percent of Chinese believe the polarization(分化) between the rich and poor is “serious” in China, according to a survey conducted by China Youth Daily.And more than 80 percent of the respondents(对象) surveyed said something must be done to narrow the expanding gap between the rich and poor, while 14.1 percent said it was necessary.

       The polarization has aroused wide concern among the public in recent years.The State Development and Reform Commission(国家发改委) said the Gini Coefficient had reached 0.47 for China, up from o.29 two decades ago.Usually, a country with a number above 0.4 is warned to pay attention to the income inequality problem.

       To find out the people’s view, the survey covered 10,250 respondents, between the ages of 20 and 30 with a college education and a monthly salary between 1,000 and 3,000 yuan.Surprisingly, most disagreed with the view of experts who claim the urban-rural difference is causing the widening gap.More than 70 percent of the respondents believed that “ the group of special interests” is the prime reason for the polarization, followed by “people in power” 68 percent, and “bosses” 50 percent.

       Another unexpected finding is that almost all agreed that a good educational background and knowledge were not the decisive factors in gaining wealth.About 95 percent said rich people are not necessarily those who are able to speak English or have a college education.

       Today in China, rich people , accounting for 10 percent of the population, control 45 percent of the total social fortune, and poor people, also 10 percent of the population, only control 1.5 percent, according to an investigation published by the National Bureau of Statistics last June.

       A.the unit used in advanced mathematics

       B.the degree of a country’s development

       C.the level of the citizen’s living standard

       D.a measure of income inequality

2.Experts hold the view that the main reason for the polarization is _____.

       A.the urban-rural difference                 B.the group of special interests

       C.the people in power                          D.the bosses

       In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written.In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually was made up of saying poetry aloud and giving speeches.

       In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject.This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates(应试者) for the doctor’s degree.

       Generally, however, modern examinations are written.The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century.Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry.A room full of candidates for a state examination timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, looks like a group of workers at an automobile factory.Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.

       One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test.It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions.To make up an objective test, the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer.Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.

1.The main idea of Paragraph Three is that ___________ .

       A.workers now take examinations                                       B.the population has grown

       C.there are only written exams today       D.examinations are now written and timed

2.The kind of exams where students must select answers are ___________ .

       A.objective            B.personal              C.spoken           D.written

3.Modern industry must have developed ____________ .

       A.around the 19th century              B .before the Middle Ages

       C.in Greece or Rome                   D.machines to take tests

4.It may be concluded that testing __________ .

       A.should test only opinions              B.should always be written

       C.is given only in factories               D.has changed since the Middle Ages
