2006 年英语专业专升本试卷 (2)Passage 1Human wants seem endlessWhen a starving man gets a mealhe begins to think about an overcoat;when an executive gets a new sports car,visions of country clubs and pleasure boats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levelsWhen there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants,another level appearsThe first and most basic level of wants involves foodOnce this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears:clothing and some sort of shelterBy the end of World War II These wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans Then a third level appearedIt included such items as automobiles and new housesBy 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied Then,in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared:the“lifeenriching” level(81)While other levels involve physical satisfaction the feeding, comfort,safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stress mental needs for recognition,achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services,many of which could be called“luxury”itemsAmong them are vacation trips,the best medical and dental care,and entertainmentAlso included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothingOn the fourth level,a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services,while on the first three levels more is spent on goodsWill consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases,or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease,ignorance,crime,and prejudice. After filling our stomachs,our clothes closets(衣橱),our garages,our teeth,and our minds,we now may seek to ensure the health,safety,and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.41.
