[单项选择]Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others see it as a melting pot. In a sense, both are correct depending upon one’s point of view. In a bowl of freshly tossed salad, all the ingredients are mixed together. Yet they never lose their shape, form or identity. Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity. In a sense, all the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product. They may be covered with the same dressing, but the green vegetables, tomatoes, lettuce and eggs can all be seen for what they are.

They may work together during the day at similar jobs and in identical companies, but at night they may return to their ethnic communities where the flavor of their individual culture dominates their way of life. This is why perhaps there is so much diversity within America. Each ethnic group ha A. The Americans work together during the day and night. B. Each ethnic group has its unique culture. C. There is no culture diversity in America. D. America society is a unity with one culture.
[简答题]Text B
In recent years American society has become increasingly dependent on its universities to find solutions to its major problems. It is the universities that have been charged with the principal responsibility for developing the expertise to place men on the moon; for dealing with our urban problems and with our deteriorating environment; for developing the means to feed the world’s rapidly increasing population. The effort involved in meeting these demands presents its own problems. In addition, this concentration on the creation of new knowledge significantly impinges on the universities’ efforts to perform their other principal functions, the transmission and interpretation of knowledge ---- the imparting of the heritage of the past and the preparing of the next generation to carry it forward.
With regard to this, perhaps their most traditionally sanctioned task, colleges and universities today find themselves in a serious bind generally. On the one hand, there is the A. A.creating new knowledge B.providing solutions to social problems C. making experts on sophisticated industries out of their students D.preparing their students to transmit inherited knowledge

American society reports many negative
messages about bicycling in traffic. Bicycling in traffic is considered by many
to be reckless, foolhardy, and sometimes rude. The most common advice given to
cyclists is to avoid busy roads that provide convenient access to important
places; presumably cyclists should only go
to unpopular destinations on undesirable and
inconvenient roads. Another popular idea is that cyclists should stay as close
to the edge of the road as possible in order to stay out of the way of cars.
Getting in the way of cars is supposedly an invitation to certain death, because
car drivers are often expected to run into anything that is slower or more
vulnerable. The rules of the road that apply to bicyclists are considered to be
of no use because they involve mixed with motor traffic, which is thought to be A. supported B. banned C. controlled D. cancelled
