【分析解答题】没有一个人将小草叫“大力士”，但是它的力量之大，的确是世所罕见。这种力，是一般人看不见的生命力，只要生命存在，这种力就要显现，上面的石块，丝毫不足以阻挡，因为它是一种“长期抗战”的力，有弹性，能屈能伸的力，有韧性，不大目的不止的力。种子不落在肥土而落在瓦砾中，有生命力的种子决不会悲观和叹气，因为有了阻力才有磨练。生命开始的一瞬间就带了斗争来的草，才是坚韧的草，也只有这种草才可以傲然地对那些玻璃棚中养育着的盆花哄笑。

1.Passage 1
It is a pleasure to be here today to commemorate the firstEarthDay with you by looking through this "Window on theAmericanEnvironment". While I have not yet viewed the television series, from the accompanying book I can see that it is a very ambitious effort. The producers have interviewed a large number of environmental leaders in the United States, from early founders back in the 1970s through those involved in the contemporary movement. //
I am sure you will hear many different opinions, because the diversity of theAmerican environmental movement is part of its strength. The ability of individuals and non-governmental organizations to express their opinions and make their voices heard in the press and in the electoral process is the root of the movement and why it flourishes today. I vividly remember going outdoors with my elementary school class onEarthDay 1970 to examine our environment by looking at what grew in the pond behind our school. The motto of that firstEarthDay was "think globally, act locally", and our young teacher wanted us to better understand what was right around us. //
Nowadays teachers have access to all sorts of wonderful educational materials to help students study the environment and learn about concepts like biodiversity, climate change and protection of the ozone layer that were still foreign to us in 1970.But we knew then about toxic chemicals, deforestation, water pollution—the subject of our pond study—and land use issues, and we were learning to understand how much of an impact these could make on our futures. //
EarthDay 1970 was a novel idea proposed by individuals—not a government—that grew on its own, so that in that very first year, over 20 millionAmericans participateD、We said, "think globally", butAmericans were not yet thinking as much beyond their borders as we do today.Equally it would have been unimaginable in 1970 thatChina would air a 22-part television series on the United States. It would be another two years before the images of President Nixon’s famous trip toChina would be broadcast on our television screens in the United States and we started to have the opportunity to learn about each other. //
Today the United States andChina have a great deal to celebrate together forEarthDay. We are working together in areas from water conservation to the protection of endangered species to the development of new, cleaner sources of energy. We have an active program to work withBeijing to support its goal of a Green Olympics in 2008. Together we are researching climate change and exploring the possibilities for using hydrogen and fusion as energy sources. The United States government, through agencies like theEnvironmental ProtectionAgency, theDepartment ofEnergy, the Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Parks Service and dozens more has an active program of cooperation with itsChinese counterparts. //

【分析解答题】SinceDarwin, biologists have been firmly convinced that nature works without plan or meaning, pursuing no aim by the direct road of design.But today we see that this conviction is a fatal error. Why should evolution, exactly asDarwin knew it and described it, be planless and irrationalDo not aircraft design engineers work, at precisely that point where specific calculations and plans give out, according to the same principle of evolution, when they test the serviceability of a great number of statistically determined forms in the wind tunnel, in order to choose the one that functions bestCan we say that there is no process of natural selection when nuclear physicists, through thousands of computer operations, try to find out which materials, in which combinations and with what structural form, are best suited to the building of an atomic reactor They also practise no designed adaptation, but work by the principle of selection.But it would never occur to anyone to call their method planless and irrational.

【单选题】"They treat us like mules," the guy installing my washer tells me, his eyes narrowing as he wipes his hands. I had just complimented him and his partner on the speed and assurance of their work He explains that it’s rare that customers speak to him this way. I know what he’s talking about. My mother was a waitress all her life, in coffee shops and fast-paced chain restaurants. It was hard work, but she liked it, liked "being among the public," as she would say.But that work had its sting, too-the customer who would treat her like a servant or, her biggest complaint, like she was not that bright.
There’s a lesson here for this political season: the subtle and not-so-subtle insults that blue- collar and service workers endure as part of their working lives.And those insults often have to do with intelligence.
We like to think of the United States as a classless society. The belief in economic mobility is central to theAmericanDream, and we pride ourselves on our spirit of egalitarianismBut we also have a troubling streak of aristocratic bias in our national temperament, and one way it manifests itself is in the assumptions we make about people who work with their hands. Working people sense this bias and react to it when they vote. The common political wisdom is that hot-button social issues have driven blue-collar voters rightwarD、But there are other cultural dynamics at play as well.AndDemocrats can be as oblivious to these dynamics as Republicans-though the Grand Old Party did appeal to them in St. Paul.
Let’s go back to those two men installing my washer and dryer. They do a lot of heavy lifting quickly-mine was the first of 15 deliveries-and efficiently, to avoid injury.Between them there is ongoing communication, verbal and nonverbal, to coordinate the lift, negotiate the tight fit, move in rhythm with each other.And all the while, they are weighing options, making decisions and solving problems-as when my new dryer didn’t match up with the gas outlet.
Think about what a good waitress has to do in the busy restaurant: remember orders and monitor them, attend to a dynamic, quickly changing environment, prioritize tasks and manage the flow of work, make decisions on the fly. There’s the carpenter using a number of mathematical concepts-symmetry, proportion, congruence, the properties of angles-and visualizing these concepts while building a cabinet, a flight of stairs, or a pitched roof.
The hairstylist’s practice is a mix of technique, knowledge about the biology of hair, aesthetic judgment, and communication skill. The mechanic, electrician, and plumber are troubleshooters and problem solvers.Even the routinized factory floor calls for working smarts. When has any of this made its way into our political speeches From either party.Even on I,aborDay.
Last week, the GOP masterfully invoked some old cultural suspicions: country folk versus city and east-coast versus heartland education,But these are symbolic populist gestures, not the stuff of true engagement. Judgments about intelligence carry great weight in our society, and we have a tendency to make sweeping assessments of people’s intelligence based on the kind of work they do.
Political tributes to labor over the next two months will render the muscled arm, sleeve rolled tight against biceps.But few will also celebrate the thought bright behind the eye, or offer an image that links hand and brain It would be fitting in a country with an egalitarian vision of itself to have a truer, richer sense of all that is involved in the wide range of work that surrounds and sustains us.
Those politicians who can communicate that sense will tap a deep reserve of neglected feeling.And those who can honor and use work in explaining and personalizing their policies will find a welcome reception.
We can conclude from the passage that ______.
