“I’m a little worried about my future.”said Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate.He should be so lucky.All he had to worry about was whether to have an affair with Mrs. Robinson.In the sixties,that was the total sum of post-graduation anxiety.
Hoffman’s modem peers are not so fortunate.The Mrs. Robinsons aren’t sitting around at home any more.They are out in the workplace,doing the high-powered jobs the graduates want,but cannot get.For those fresh out of university,desperate for work but unable to get it,there is a big imbalance between supply and demand.And there is no narrowing of the gap in sight.
Parents feel as badly let down as the young people themselves.Middle-class families see their graduate offspring on the dole (救濟金) queue and wonder why they bothered paying school fees.Working-class families feel an even keener sense of disappointment.For many such families,getting a child into university was the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.It was proof that they were living in a dynamic,economically successful country.That dream does not seem so rosy now.Graduate unemployment is not,ultimately,a political problem.Job-creation for graduates is very low down in the government’s schedule.If David Cameron’s Conservatives (保守黨) had a brilliant idea for guaranteeing every graduate a well-paid job,they would have presented it by now.It is a social problem,though a more deep-seated social problem than people perhaps realize.

A.support the fact that more women are working now

2.Regarding job opportunities for young graduates,the author sounds __________ .
A.pessimistic????????????? ????????????? B.hopeful????????????? ????????????? C.unconcerned ????????????? ????????????? D.content
3.The main purpose of the passage is to __________ .
A.criticize the government
B.present a current severe situation
C.publicize a movie
D.display the success of the country
4.Towards the end of the passage,the author implies that __________ .
A.there will be job-creation programs for graduates
B.graduate unemployment is more of a political issue
C.graduate unemployment is not likely to be solved in a short time

Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m a senior school student. I do quite well my studies, but I have a serious problem that trouble me all the while. It is the relationship between my mother and I .My dear mother is an university professor, who works very much hard. She’s always strict with me, but has a little time to talk with me. I show respect for her and I’m a little afraid of her because she loses her temper easily. I don’t know how to communicate with her. Maybe it’s because we have seldom sat down and exchange our feelings and thoughts.I hope we can know more about each other and understanding each other better. I did hope we will be closer. What can I do?
Yours sincerely
Leslie

閱讀下面短文,從短文后所給各題的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中選出最佳選項。
Dear Betty,
My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I’m excited about going, but I’m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.
Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late? At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?
Yours,
Knowing Nothing
Dear Knowing Nothing,
It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.
You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don’t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don’t be shy about asking the person next to you; it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.
Yours,
Betty
