25、 an essential part of adolescent development.“The adolescent becomes an adult when he_26_a real job.”To cognitive researchers like Piaget, adulthood meant the beginning of an_27_.Piaget argued that once adolescents enter the world of work, their newly acquired ability to form hypotheses allows them

26、to create representations that are too ideal.The_28_of such ideals, without the tempering of the reality of a job or profession, rapidly leads adolescents to become _29_ of the non-idealistic world and to press for reform in a characteristically adolescent way. Piaget said:“ True adaptation to socie

27、ty comes_30_when the adolescent reformer attempts to put his ideas to work.”Of course, youthful idealism is often courageous, and no one likes to give up dreams.Perhaps,taken_31_out of context, Piagets statement seems harsh. What he was_32_，however, is the way reality can modify idealistic views. So

28、me people refer to such modification as maturity. Piaget argued that attaining and accepting a vocation is one of the best ways to modify idealized views and to mature.As careers and vocations become less available during times of _33_,adolescents may be especially hard hit. Such difficult economic

29、times may leave many adolescents_34_about their roles in society. For this reason, community interventions and government job programs that offer summer and vacation work are not only economically_35_but also help to stimulate the adolescents sense of worth.A)automatically I)incidentallyB)beneficial

30、 J)intolerantC)capturing K)occupationD)confused L)promisesE)emphasizing M)recessionF)entrance N)slightlyG)excited O)undertakesH)existenceSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the p

31、aragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Can societies be rich and green?A“If our economies are to flourish, i

32、f global poverty is to be eliminated and if the well-being of the worlds people enhancednot just in this generation but in succeeding generationswe must make sure we take care of the natural environment and resources on which our economic activity depends.”That statement comes not, as you might imag

33、ine, from a stereotypical tree-hugging, save-the-world greenie(环保主义者),but from Gordon Brown, a politician with a reputation for rigour, thoroughness and above all, caution.BA surprising thing for the man who runs one of the worlds most powerful economies to say? Perhaps; though in the run-up to the

34、five-year review of the Millennium(千年的)Goals, he is far from alone. The roots of his speech, given in March at the roundtable meeting of environment and energy ministers from the G20 group of nations, stretch back to 1972,and the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm.C“The

35、protection and improvement of the human environment is a major issue which affects the well-being of peoples and economic development throughout the world,” read the final declaration from this gathering, the first of a sequence which would lead to the Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992 and the Wor

36、ld Development Summit in Johannesburg three years ago.DHunt through the reports prepared by UN agencies and development groupsmany for conferences such as this years Millennium Goals reviewand you will find that the linkage between environmental protection and economic progress is a common thread.EM

37、anaging ecosystems sustainably is more profitable than exploiting them, according to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. But finding hard evidence to support the thesis is not so easy. Thoughts turn first to some sort of global statistic, some indicator which would rate the wealth of nations in bot

38、h economic and environmental terms and show a relationship between the two.FIf such an indicator exists, it is well hidden. And on reflection, this is not surprising; the single word “environment” has so many dimensions, and there are so many other factors affecting wealthsuch as the oil depositstha

39、t teasing out a simple economy-environment relationship would be almost impossible.GThe Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, a vast four-year global study which reported its initial conclusions earlier this year, found reasons to believe that managing ecosystems sustainablyworking with nature rather tha

40、n against itmight be less profitable in the short term, but certainly brings long-term rewards.HAnd the World Resources Institute(WRI)in its World Resources 2023 report, issued at the end of August, produced several such examples from Africa and Asia; it also demonstrated that environmental degradat

41、ion affects the poor more than the rich, as poorer people derive a much higher proportion of their income directly from the natural resources around them.IBut there are also many examples of growing wealth by trashing the environment, in rich and poor parts of the world alike, whether through unregu

42、lated mineral extraction, drastic water use for agriculture, slash-and-burn farming, or fossil-fuel-guzzling(大量消耗)transport. Of course, such growth may not persist in the long termwhich is what Mr. Brown and the Stockholm declaration were both attempting to point out. Perhaps the best example of boo

43、m growth and bust decline is the Grand Banks fishery. For almost five centuries a very large supply of cod(鳕鱼)provided abundant raw material for an industry which at its peak employed about 40,000 people, sustaining entire communities in New found and. Then, abruptly, the cod population collapsed. T

44、here were no longer enough fish in the sea for the stock to maintain itself, let alone an industry. More than a decade later, there was no sign of the ecosystem re-building itself. It had, apparently, been fished out of existence; and the once mighty Newfoundland fleet now gropes about frantically f

45、or crab on the sea floor.JThere is a view that modern humans are inevitably sowing the seed of a global Grand Banks-style disaster. The idea is that we are taking more out of what you might call the planets environmental bank balance than it can sustain; we are living beyond our ecological means. On

46、e recent study attempted to calculate the extent of this“ ecological overshoot of the human economy”, and found that we are using 1.2 Earths-worth of environmental goods and servicesthe implication being that at some point the debt will be called in, and all those servicesthe things which the planet

47、 does for us for freewill grind to a halt.KWhether this is right, and if so where and when the ecological axe will fall, is hard to determine with any precisionwhich is why governments and financial institutions are only beginning to bring such risks into their economic calculations. It is also the reason why development agencies are not united in their view of environmental issues; while some, like the WRI, maintain that environmental progress needs to go hand-in-hand with economic development, others argue that the priority is to build a thriving economy, and then
