An increase in
students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (歸因于)the global economic crisis
awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.
Applications
for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January, according
to UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service. A. spokesman for the
Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also
up.
Professor john
Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecture at St Andrews
University, said his first-year lectures-which are open to students from all
departments―were drawing
crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.
“There are a large number of students
who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One
of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary
events in a way that one hasn’t traditionally done. ” He added.
University
applications rose 7% last year. But there were rises above average in several
subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with people’s renewed interest in caters in the pubic sector(部門), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.
A. recent
study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to
teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had
asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not
understand it themselves well enough to explain.
Zack Hocking,
the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “It’s possible that one good thing to arise
from the downturn will be a generation that’s
financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of
economic uncertainty.”

Few laws are
so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in
the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled―to $1. 01 per pack―smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.
This is not a
surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that
smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the
industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The only
wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message.
Tobacco taxes improve public health, health, they raise money and most
particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is
when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.
In Manhattan,
for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light
Kings cost $10.06 at one
drugstore Wednesday. Charleston, S, C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the
lowest in the nation. The price was $4. 78.
The influence
is obvious.
In New York,
high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys―13.8%, far below the national
average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other
low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.
Hal Rogers,
Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes,
argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.”
That’s true, But there is more reason in
keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the
first place, As for today’s adults, if the new tax
drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their
risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.
66 The text is mainly about___________.
A the price of cigarettes B tie rate of teen smoking
C the effect of tobacco tax increase D the differenees in tobacco tax rate
67 What does the author think is a surprise?
A Teen smokers are price sensitive.
B Some atates still keep the tobacco tax low.
C Tobacco taxes improve public health.
D Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.
68.The underlined word "deter"in Paragraph 3 most probably means .
A. discording B.remove C. benefit D.free
69.Rogers’attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that of .
A.tolerance B.unconcern C.doubt D.sympathy
70.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.
B.Low-income Amerians are more likely to fall ill.
C.Future generations will be hooked on smoking.
D.Adults will depend more on their families.

“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”
“Two full inches in the first three
days!”
These are the
kinds of statements used in magazine, newspaper, radio and television ads,
promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device.
The promoters of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth
wrinkles, or in some other way to beauty or desirability.

author to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product
already on the marker danger to health, FDA. can request the producer or
distributor to remove it from the a voluntarily, or it can take legal action
,including seizure (查封) of the product.
One notable
case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, had
been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical
shocks to the ## through contact pads. FDA. took legal action against the
distributor to stop the sale of the ## the grounds that it was dangerous to
health and life.

Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria,
but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The
Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their
