W: Not at all. What's on your mind—anything special?
M: It's only to find out what you're doing Friday night.
W: That depends, what's up?
M: There's a folk concert at the auditorium.
W: Folk music, I dig, but that would take a whole evening and I have an appointment with Mrs. David to help her with Chinese History.
M: Can you cancel it or postpone it?
W: I'm sorry, it wouldn't be nice to call off an appointment that was set up a week ago. May I take a rain check?
M: Sure, what about Saturday then?
W: What's on the schedule?
M: We have a good football game at two.
W: That's just great. I hear a lot of people can't get the tickets.
M: I'll treat you to some Chinese food in Cincinnati after the game. I'm sure you'd enjoy Chinese food. After dinner if you like, we can take in a movie. How does that sound?
W: But I won't have time to change after the game. I don't want to wear slacks to dinner.
M: Then wear a sweater and skirt with your car coat. Or how about your green knit suit and top coat? You look sharp in that. I'll wear the new scarf you gave me with my brown sports jacket and slacks. Then, we won't be too dressed up for football or too dressed down for dinner. How's that?
W: Will we be OK for the movie too?
M: We'll be fine! Only one thing missing. I'll have to get you a big gold chrysanthemum to wear. All the girls must have one, especially for their first football game—it's a tradition.
W: What movie are we going to see?
M: What kind of movie do you like most—detective, western, romance, cartoons?
W: I like love stories better.
M: You would! Girls always do.
W: Anyway, thanks for calling, I'm late for class—then see you Saturday.

Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. 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 choice.
At some time in your life, you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible. However, chances are that you don't act on your impulse, but let it pass instead. You know that to commit the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of tabo0 behavior. is how it can change over the years within the same society, how certain behavior. and attitude once considered taboo can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the publication of important books such as On Death and Dying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.
One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat. Unlike many other taboos, fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly. It's not taboo to talk about fat; it's taboo to be fat. The "in" look is thin, not fat. In the work world, most companies prefer youthful-looking, trim executives to sell their images as well as their products to the public. The thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self- discipline, and self-respect. In an image-conscious society like the U.S., thin is "in", fat is "out".
It's not surprising, then, that millions of Americans have been obsessed with staying slim and "in shape". The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the sole reason for Americans' fascination with diet and exercise. Recent research has shown the critical importance of diet and exercise for personal health. As in most technologically developed nations, the life style. of North Americans has changed dramatically during the course of the last century. Modem machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand. Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. As a result of inactivity and disuse, people's bodies can easily become weak and vulnerable to disease. In an effort to avoid such a fate, millions of Americans are spending more of their time exercising.
From the passage we can infer taboo is ______.
A.a strong desire to do something strange or terrible
B.a crime committed on impulse
C.behavior. considered unacceptable in society's eyes
D.an unfavorable impression left on other people

第9题
Reppy concedes that apes can talk only at the level of a human 4-year-old, so they may not be ready to discuss abstractions like oppression and freedom. Just last month, one ape did manage to say through a synthesizer: "Please buy me a hamburger." That may not sound like crucial testimony, but lawyers think that the spectacle of an ape saying anything at all in court may change a lot of minds about the status of animals as property.
One problem is that apes probably won't be able to convince judges that they know right from wrong, or that they intend to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Since they are not persons, they don't even have legal standing to sue. No problem, says Steven Wise, who taught animal law for 10 years at Vermont law school and is now teaching Harvard law school's first course in the subject. He says lawyers should be able to use slavery-era statutes that authorized legal nonpersons (slaves) to bring lawsuits. Gary Francione, who teaches animal law at Rutgers University, says that gorillas "should be declared to be persons under the constitution."
Unlike mainstream animal-welfare activists, radical animal-rights activists think that all animals are morally equal and have rights, though not necessarily the same rights as humans. So the law's denial of rights to animals is simply a matter of bias-speciesism. It's even an expression of bias to talk about protecting wildlife, since this assumes that human control and domination of other species is acceptable. These are surely far-out ideas. "Would even bacteria have rights?" asks one exasperated law professor, Richard Epstein of the University of Chicago Law School.
For the moment, the radicals want to confine the rights discussion to apes and chimps, mostly to avoid the obvious mockery about litigious lemmings, cockroach liberation, and the issue of whether a hyena eating an antelope is committing a rights violation that should be brought before the world court in the Hague. One wag wrote a poem containing the line, "Every beast within his paws/Will clutch an order to show cause."
The news is that law schools are increasingly involved in animal issues. Any radical notion that vastly inflates the concept of rights and requires a lot more litigation is apt to take root in the law schools. ("Some lawyers say they are in the field to advance their ideology, but some note that it is an area of legal practice that could be profitable," reports the New York Times.)
A dozen law schools now feature courses on animal law, and in some cases at least, the teaching seems to be a simple extension of radical activism. The course description of next spring's "Animal Law Seminar" at Georgetown University Law Center, for instance, makes clear to students which opinions are the correct ones to have, It talks about the plight of "rightless plaintiffs" and promises to examine how and why laws "purporting to protect" animals have failed.
Ideas about humane treatment of animals are indeed changing. Many of us have changed our minds about furs, zoos, slaughterhouse techniques, and at least some forms of animal experimentation. The debate about greater concern for the animal world continues. But the alliance between the radicals and the lawyers means that, once again, an issue that ought to be taken to the people and resolved by democratic means will most likely be pre-empted by judges and lawyers. Steven Wise talks of using the courts to knock down the wall between humans and apes. Once apes have rights, he says, the status of other animals can be decided
A.be taken to the public and resolved by democratic means
B.be resolved by a few judges and lawyers
C.be looked on as a mockery
D.be confined to such animals as apes
