A new era is upon us. Call it what you
will: the service economy, the information age, the knowledge society. It all
translates to a fundamental change in the way we work. Already we’re partly
there. The percentage of people who earn their living by making things has
fallen dramatically in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America,
Europe and Japan (two thirds or more in many of these countries) are in the
service industry, and the number is on the rise. More women are in the work
force than ever before. There are more part-time jobs. More people are
self-employed. But the breadth of the economic transformation can’t be measured
by numbers alone, because it also gives rise to a radical new way of thinking
about the nature of work itself. Long-held notions about jobs and careers, the
skills needed to succeed, even A. most of the job opportunities can now be found in the service industry B. manufacturing industries are steadily increasing C. people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factories D. the service industry is relying more and more on the female work force

[单项选择] {{B}}Passage One{{/B}}
In this new era, the single most
immediate and most serious challenge to America traditional identity comes from
the immense and continuing immigration from Latin America, especially from
Mexico, and the fertility (生育) rates of these immigrants compared to black and
white American natives. Americans like to boast of their past success in
assimilating (同化) millions of immigrants into their society, culture, and
politics. But Americans have tended to generalize about immigrants without
distinguishing among them and have focused on the economic costs and benefits of
immigration, ignoring its social and cultural consequences. As a result, they
have overlooked the unique characteristics and problems posed by contemporary
Hispanic immigration. The extent and nature of this immigration differ
fundamentally from those of previous A. their strong economic and political power on world stage B. their capability on involving other people into their culture C. their great tolerance of the cultural features of immigrants D. their high fertility rate of native blacks and whites
