B,C and in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

The two most common organizational patterns of the family are the nuclear family and the

extended family. To a large extent, these patterns 41.________ a society's primary subsistence (

存

在

) strategy.

American social scientists have generally agreed that families everywhere fulfill four crucial

social 42.________ : (a) reproduction of new members, (b) child care, (c) socialization of children

to

values,

traditions,

and

norms

of

the

Although we can define the family 43.________ its functions, the emphasis given to each of them

varies widely both geographically and 44.________ . For example, in nineteenth-century America,

consumption rather than for 45.________.

decide

to

have,

if

any,

and

also

the

likelihood

of

48.________to

the

family

because of illness, death, or divorce. Social class also influences the amount of stress a marriage is

and

childless

couples.

Role

changes

are

also

Section B

Directions

:

Read

the

following

three

passages.

Each

passage

is

followed

by

questions

or

unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the

one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

The

Hawthorne

experiment

was

conducted

in

the

late

1920s

and

early

1930s.

The

management of Western Electric's Hawthorne plant, located near Chicago, wanted to find out if

environmental factors, such as lighting, could affect workers' productivity and morale. A team of

social

scientists

experimented

with

a

small

group

of

employees

who

were

set

apart

from

their

coworkers.

The

environmental

conditions

of

this

group's

work

area

were

controlled,

and

the

subjects

themselves

were

closely

observed.

To

the

great

surprise

of

the

researchers,

the

productivity

of

these

workers

increased

in

response

to

any

change

in

their

environmental

conditions. The rate of work increased even when the changes (such as a sharp decrease in the

level of light in the workplace) seemed unlikely to have such an effect.

It

was

concluded

that

the

presence

of

the

observers

had

caused

the

workers

in

the

experimental group to feel special. As a result, the employees came to know and trust one another,

and they developed a strong belief in the importance of their job. The researchers believed that

this, not the changes in the work environment, accounted for the increased productivity.

A later reanalysis of the study data challenged the Hawthorne conclusions on the grounds that

the changes in patterns of human relations, considered so important by the original researchers,

were never measured. However, even if the original conclusions must be revised, they nonetheless

raise

a

problem

for

social

scientists:

Research

subjects

who

know

they

are

being

studied

can

change their behavior. Throughout the social sciences, this phenomenon has

come to be called the Hawthorne effect.

56. The author implies that a sharp decrease in light increased workers' output because

_______________.

A. the workers experienced less eyestrain in a dark working place

B. the workers had to pay more attention to what they were doing

C. the workers knew they were being observed, and this motivated them
