As
expected,
the
incidence
of
violence
is
highest
among
the
urban
poor
(many
of
them
minoroties).blue-collar
workers,
people
under
20
or
without
religious
beliefs,
families
with
a
husband
who
is
jobless
and those
with
four
to
six
children.
But
the
study
also
showed
that
violence
occurs
among
wealthy
families
as
well.
Indeed,
the
wife
of
a
university
president
once
quietly called Straus, one of the
sociologists who conducted the study,
to ask what she could do about her
husband, who often beat her. Straus
suggested seeking assistance from
marriage advisors.
Steaus
and
his
colleagues
found
out
that
there
are
various
root
causes
that give rise to
such behavior.
“
The reason
are mixed
–
psychological,
sociological,
situational,
”
says
Straus.
“
The
husband,
for
example,
may
feel
under particular stress because be has been out of
work too long.
Violence
may
also
be
an
echo
of
the
past,
”
Straus
explains.
“
When
Mummy
gives her two-year-old
a slap
(巴掌)
for putting
something dirty in his
mouth, he is
learning from infancy that those who love you hit
you.
”
Another
reason may be the worsening economic
situations.
“
If we have a
real economos decline,
It

s going to get
worse,
”
economic
situations.
“
If we have a
real economic declines,it
’
s
going to get worse,
”
says
Gelles, one of
Straus
”
colleagues.
These sociologists have no easy answer
to violence in the American
family.
While
they
welcome
such
move
as
the
opening
of
shelters
for
beaten
wives and the
establishment of a National Center for Child Abuse
and
Neglect,
they
belive
that
there
must
be
more
basic
attack
on
vilolence,including
the
reduction
of
“
macho
”
(大男子主义)
themes
on
the
television,the outlawing of physical
punishment in schools and perhaps
even
the wlimination of death Straus
explains,
“
Volence is
an acceptable solution to problems in
American society,And that is how
it is
used in families.
of the following
statements is true?
A.
More
than
a
third
of
brothers
attack
sisters
in
American
families.
B.
Almost
four
percent
of
husbands

seriously
beaten
by
their
wives.
C.
Six

Passage Three
Qestions 31to35are based on the
following passage.
American scientists
are developing an
“
intellige
nt
”
mabile phone
capable
of
blocking
incoming
calls
depending
on
the
owner
’
s
mood.,
Using
“
context
aware
”
Technology
the
“
Sensay
”
phone
will
monitor
calls
and
send
back
polite
messages saying the user may be
contacted later.
A research team at the
Institute for Complex Engineering Systems at
Carragie Mellon University in
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, are developing
body
temperature
and
electrical
skin
monitors
to
help
the
device
understand the emotional
state
of its
user. If the phone senses
that the
user is busy
—
for instance, involved in a
conversation
—
it might block
an incoming call and turn it onto
voicemail. The phone would send back
a
text message saying the user is unavailable, but
advising that id the
matter is urgent
the caller can try again in three minutes. If a
call
from the same person came in
again, the phone would put it through.
The researchers are interested in four
basic different states
—
busy
and
not
to
be
interrupted,
physically
active,
idle,and
“
normal.
”
Most
people
are
said
to
change
between
these
states,an
average
of
6
to
12
times
a day.
Professor
Asim
Smailagic,
a
leading
member
of
the
Carnegic
Mellon
team,
told
The
Engineer
maga
zine.
”
Today
’
s
computers
are
pretty
dumb
compared
with the device. We
got to work at the beginning of May and since then
have been improving it. The next stage
is to make it smarter, adding
various
intellingence systems so it can learn about the
user. The phone
also
employs
four
primary
sensons
—
two
microphones
to
pick
up
conversations
and
monitor
local
noise.a
light
detector
and
an <
/p>
acceleromster
(加速度计)
.The light sensor shows if the phone is being
carried in a bag or pocket ,while the
accelerometer determines whether
the
user is walking,running or standing still, In the
sensor box, phone
is being carried in a
bag or pocket, while the accelerometer determites
whether the user is walking,running or
standing still,In the future,the
sensor
box,phone
and
personal
organizer
will
be
combined
into
one
device.
