举一反三
There are at least three things going on that have caused the price of wine to rise. All have to do
with the supply and demand factors of economics.
The first factor is that people are drinking more wine than ever before. This demand formore wine
has increased wine sales in America at the rate of 15 percent a year.
The second factor is that the supply of wine has stayed relatively the same, which meansthat the
same number of bottles is produced each year. Wine producers are trying to open upnew land to
grow more grapes. But in at least three wine producing areas of the world-France,Germany, and
California - new vineyards (葡萄园)will not be useable in the near future. Wines are produced in
other countries, such as Italy, Spain, and Portugal, as well as Argentine,Australia, Austria, and Chile.
And these wines will be seen more often on the American market. But none of these countries will be
able to fill the good wines.
The third factor is that costs of wine production are soaring. The workers who make wine are
asking for more money, and the machinery needed to press the grapes is becoming more expensive.
When the demand for something is greater than the supply, prices go up. When productioncosts,
meaning the price of labor and machinery rise, the producer adds this increase to the price of the wine.
For these reasons, that bottle of wine now costs 2. 25 instead of 1. 69.
B. Countries won"t be able to fill the demand for good wines.
C. The prices of things go up when the demand for them is greater than the supply.
D. The supply of wine will always be less than demand.
B. persuade people drink more beer
C. explain why the price of wine is rising
D. describe why wine is a favorite drink to many Americans
B. reducing fast
C. demanding badly
D. increasing fast

bins at Dylan"s Candy Bar in Manhattan. Since he was out of employment, Mr. Schneider, a
33-year-old designer, says he has become a person who always buys a lot of sweets every time he
shops for groceries.
"Sugar is comforting," he said. "There"s nothing more stressful than growing financial insecurity (不安
全感) everywhere."
The recession (经济衰退) seems to have a sweet tooth. As unemployment has risen, Americans,
particularly adults, have been consuming (消费) growing amounts of candy.
Theories vary on exactly why. For many, sugar lifts spirits dragged low by the economy. For others,
candy also reminds them of better times. And not importantly, it is relatively cheap.
At Candyality, a store in Chicago, business has jumped by nearly 80 percent and the owner, Terese
McDonald, said she was struggling to keep up with the demand for Bit-O-Honeys, and Sour Balls.
Many big candy makers are also reporting rising sales and big profits (利润).
"It"s not surprising." said Peter Liebhold, chairman of the Smithsonian Institution"s work and industry
division. "During the Great Depression in the 1930"s, candy companies stayed in business."
B. lots of Americans like candies
C. many Americans in the recession like sweets which are comforting
D. Americans are suffering much in the recession
B. The recession doesn"t affect Americans.
C. Americans are optimistic even though they are out of employment.
D. Candy companies stayed in business during the Great Depression.
B. It is comforting and can make a lot of profits.
C. It raises people"s spirits up.
D. It calls up people"s good memories.
B. Candy Companies Has a Bright Future
C. Americans Have a Sweet Tooth
D. Sugar Sales Rise in the Recession
But economic reality is cruel everywhere; especially for new graduate. They have been told
repeatedly that a college degree is an open sesame(芝麻) to the global economy. But that"s not
necessarily so, according to new research by two economists at he Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, Frank Levy and Peter Temin.
It is true that people with college degrees make more money than people without degrees.
The gap has narrowed somewhat in recent years, which is disturbing. But the earning power of
college graduates still far outpaces that of less-educated workers.
The bad news, though, is that a college degree does not ensure a bigger share of the economics
pie for many graduates. In recent decades Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show, only college-educated
women have seen their income grow in line with economy wide gains in productivity. The earnings
of male college graduates have failed to keep pace with productivity gains.
Instead, a huge share of productivity growth, which expands the nation"s income, is going to
Americans on the top of the income scale. In 2005, the latest year with available data, the top of
1 percent of Americans-whose average annual income was $ 1.1 million- took in 21.8 percent
of the nation"s income, their largest share since 1929.
Administration officials, and other politicians and economists, often, believe that income inequality,
reflects an education gap. But Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin show that in the case of men, the average
bachelor"s degree is not enough to catch the rising tide of the global economy.
They argue that the real reason that inequality is worsening is the lack of strong policies that broadly
distribute economic gains. In the past, for example, a more progressive income tax and unions
promote equality. Positive measures have been eroding and new ones have not yet emerged, making
the income gap even greater.
Mr. Levy and Mr. Temin conclude that only a new government policy can restore general
prosperity. That"s a challenge to the nation"s leader and today"s graduates. America needs them to
contribute to the development of the nation in global economy.
B. college graduates find it hard to find an ideal job after graduation in America.
C. research shows that American government should take measures to ensure income
equality for college graduates
D. college degrees are losing value in America.
B. Much of the total income in America has been gained by a few very rich people.
C. A small part of people in America have income increase.
D. Upper class Americans contribute most to productivity growth.
B. gradually reducing power
C. gradually disappearing
D. gradually not suitable
B. female college graduates have benefited from some governmental measures to ensure
their income growth.
C. income tax can grantee income equality.
D. new measures and policies have been taken to promote income equality.
B. lack of proper governmental policies
C. gender discrimination
D. underdevelopment of economy and productivity.
Android devices without the phone owners knowing that the images were being taken. In Apple"s
case, developers can also obtain the location information for each photo.
Senator(参议员) Charles Schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with
officials at both Apple and Google on Monday.
"We asked them if they could find a way on their own to prevent Apple from having access to
private info," Mr. Schumer said. "They were friendly and open to the idea that this ought to be
changed."
On Sunday, Mr. Schumer said that he planned to send a letter to the Federal Trade Commission
(联邦贸易委员会) asking the agency to investigate Apple and Google after the privacy concerns
came to light. Claudia Bourne Farrell, an F.T.C. spokeswoman, said the agency had received the
letter but she could not comment further.
"It sends shivers up the spine to think that one"s personal photos, address book, and who knows
what else can be obtained and even posted online without consent," Mr. Schumer wrote in his letter
to the F.T. C. "If the technology exists to open the door to this kind of privacy invasion, then surely
technology exists to close it, and that"s exactly what must happen."
Mr. Schumer said if Apple and Google could not come to an agreement to fix the problem, then
he would be forced to take the issue further.
He said other companies had been willing to work with his office to fix issues. "I"m optimistic that
we can get this changed without any regulation," he said. "If it"s not changed, then we"ll look the F.T.C,
and if that doesn"t work then we"ll look at legislative approach."
The F.T.C. has warned companies to try to be more vigilant(警醒的) in their efforts to protect
consumers when it comes to privacy.
B. to stop them from developing the technology of taking photos.
C. to urge them not to invade consumers" privacy.
D. to keep them from obtaining the location information for each photo.
