Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best cho
23、ice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage1It is hard to get any agreement on the accurate meaning of the term social class. In everyday life, people tend to have a different approach to those they consider their equals from that which the
24、y assume with people they consider higher or lower than themselves in the social scale. The criteria we use to place a new acquaintance ( 熟人), however, are a complex mixture of factors.Dress, way of speaking, area of residence in a given city or province, education and manners all play a part. In Gr
25、eece, after the sixth-century B. C., there was a growing conflict between the peasants and the landed aristocrats( 贵族), and a gradual decrease in the power of the aristocracy when a kind of middle class of traders and skilled workers grew up. The population of Athens, for example, was divided into t
26、hree main classses which were politically and legally distinct. About one-third of the total were slaves, who did not count politically at all, a fact often forgotten by those who praise Athens as the nursery of democracy.

Gradually high office and occupation assumed importance in determining social position, as it became more and more possible for a person born to one station in life to move to another. This change a
29、ffected the towns more than the country areas,where remnants of feudalism lasted much longer. With the break-up of the feudal economy, the increasing division of lab our, and the growing power of the town burghers(公民), the commercial and professional middle class became more and more important in Eu
30、rope, and the older privileged class, the landed aristocracy, began to lose some of its power.35. The main idea of the first paragraph is that _ A. to define the term social class does not involve much difficulty B. there is much alternation in peoples social classes C. to evaluate a person s social
31、 class is a very complex procedure D. we can tell which social class a person belongs to by the way he behaves36. In Line 5 Paragraph 1, criteria most probably means _ A. standards of judgment B. ways C. criticism D. characteristic37. The decline of the Greek aristocracy s power in the sixth century
