第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
A
Chelsea Bourque was 17 years old. When she took a summer job, her mother, Kim Guidry, was confident her daughter would get good life experience. And Chelsea wanted to make her own money and be more independent. Kim didn't worry about her daughter because she'd known the store owner for years. Chelsea did such a good job that when summer ended she was asked to stay on and even open and close the shop sometimes. That was when Kim started feeling uneasy. “She'd be there alone with a drawer full of money for the first or last 20 minutes of her shift(班)，” says Kim. “If she was opening, I'd drop her off to lock the door the minute she got into the building, and I'd wait in the car until the owner arrived. If she was closing, I'd arrive 20 minutes early. You can never be too careful.”
Kim's concerns were natural. Even though the 6 million American teens who hold job benefit a lot — learning to manage money, developing time-management skills, and becoming good at problem-solving with other people — they face some dangers as well. About 230 000 teen workers are injured yearly, from burns and cuts in restaurant kitchens to falls from roofs on buildings. Deaths, fortunately, are rare, but they do happen — between 60 and 70 each year, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
But for most teens and their parents, the pay-offs of working do more good than harm. So help your teens get most out of employment with these stay-safe tips.
56. From what Kim said, we know she ______.
A. was worried about her daughter's safety B. was proud of her daughter's performance
C. hoped her daughter could be independent D. thought her daughter's job was interesting
57. We can know from the passage that about _____ US teen workers are injured every year.
A. 2% B. 4% C. 8% D. 12%
58. In the next part, the author would most probably discuss ______.
A. how to build up teens' confidence B. how to help teens find a part-time job
C. how to teach teens to be independent D. how to keep teens safe at work
59. The passage is developed mainly by ______.
A. giving a specific example B. providing an idea by reasoning
C. testing an idea by reasoning D. asking and answering questions
60. For whom is the text mainly written?
A. Students. B. Teenagers. C. Parents. D. Teachers.
B
In cities with rent control, the city government gets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics hold the opinion that an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
61. This passage shows that setting maximum rent may ______.
A. encourage the construction of more apartments B. reduce the shortage of apartments
C. discourage the renting of apartments as homes D. result in a shortage of apartments
62. From the passage, we can infer that rent control ______.
A. is completely unnecessary B. will likely bring about undesired results
C. will bring positive effects in the long run D. is necessary under all circumstances
63. The problem of unemployment may come up when ______.
A. the minimum wage is set too low B. the workers are unskilled
C. the minimum wage is set too high D. people need low-paying jobs
64. This passage is mainly about economists disagreement on ______.
A. the effectiveness of government controls B. the urgency of getting rid of government controls
C. the relationship between supply and demand D. the possible results of government controls
65. We can conclude from the passage that ______.
A. the results of economic decisions can always be predicted
B. predicting the results of economic decisions is something complicated
C. minimum wage can not protect employees
D. economists usually have the same prediction about an economic decision

It’s high time someone spoke up for today’s college students. They’re probably the most hardworking, ambitious people in America and their problems are not properly appreciated.
People like the Secretary of Education simply don’t know what they’re talking about when they knock students. Nor do those who complain about falling academic standards.
The vast majority of the nation’s 12 million students are struggling to pay for
