18、分40分）AJobs and work do much more than provide happiness and satisfaction. Were all used to thinking that work provides the material things of life. But we are less aware of its psychological function. Work can make the difference between a full and an empty life.Nowadays we often hear the complaints
19、: “I cant wait for my vacation,” “I wish I could stay home today.” So it may be surprising to learn that psychologists（心理学家） have recognized the positive contribution of work to the sense of personal achievement. Rather than a punishment or a burden, work is the opportunity to realize ones ability.
20、Psychologists have announced its healing effect on mental health patients. Many patients who always feel sad gain their self-confidence after reemployment.But why? Why should work be such a significant source of human satisfaction? The answer lies in the pride that is provided by the activity of acc
21、omplishing.The human being longs for a sense of being accomplished. Each of us wants to feel he or she has the ability to do some satisfying things. It is common to see a craftsman（工匠） who likes to make an object that may be useful or beautiful. You also can see the carpenter or designer stand aside
22、 and admire the product of his personal skill.Some are misled into thinking that people like to save energy, and rest themselves as much as possible. Just the opposite, it is energy spending in an accomplished work team that is satisfying.I remember seeing a team of men in a chair factory whose job
23、is to make chair. And there are several such “teams. One team is particularly known for its good cooperation and fast working speed. The men know they are good. They would work for ten hours before a rest to show other groups what is skilled and best. When I talk with them, each is proud of being a
24、part of the accomplished team. And this sense of belonging is the typical satisfaction of the work.41. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Work helps mental patients recover their healthB. Work is punishment or a burdenC. Jobless people are likely to suffer from some psyc
25、hological troublesD. Work can make a difference in our life42. The craftsman admires his own product mainly because _A. it is useful B. it is beautifulC. it is both useful and beautifulD. it gives him a sense of accomplishment43. From the passage we can conclude that most people _.A. hate to do diff
26、icult workB. like to save energyC. are willing to make use of their energyD. would rather rest than work44. Most people can gain satisfaction from work, this is because _.A. they find pride in achievementB. they are proud of being part of an accomplishment work teamC. they want to live a full and me
27、aning lifeD. all of the aboveBMaps and statistics can tell us a lot about where a country is headed. Take the US Census Bureaus latest findings on American cities. They show that for the first time since 1900, Detroit is not on the list of the Top 10 most populous US cities. In its place is San Jose
28、, California. Detroit has been the long-time centre of the US auto industry, but in the past few years the “Big Three” US automakersGeneral Motors, Ford, and Chryslerhave closed plants and laid off workers. With the factory closings and huge job losses, Detroit cannot collect enough tax revenue to p
29、ay its bills, forcing it to close schools and lay off city workers. Cutbacks then cause others to flee the city. “Its part of a pattern for the heavily industrialized cities,” says Dana Johnson, an economist in Detroit. “Theres been an ongoing dynamic(变化) here of people fleeing the city looking for
30、better schools, better lifestyles, better services. Detroit is hardly alone. After World War II, the US was the worlds leading manufacturer. Cars, televisions, toys, and clothing made in America were exported around the world. As a result, the well-paid factory workers formed the backbone of a risin
31、g middle class. In the last three decades, the US economy has change. Companies have moved factories overseas to take advantage of lower wages in Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. Where are people who leave the northeast and Midwest going? They are moving south and west, another broad trend. In general, people are moving to where its warmer, less expensive and less crowded, or where jobs are more plentiful in growing service industries like health care, in the technology s
