II. Cloze (20 points)
A. Fill in each of the following blanks with a suitable word in its proper form and write down the required
word on the answer sheet. (10 points)
Earlier today, my colleague Derek Thompson argued that; it’s misleading to think of marriage 1 a
“luxury good”. Why? Because luxury goods are something the 2 buy and the poor can’t afford. But in
the case of 3 the trend is more complex. The vast majority of Americans tie the knot at some point in their
lives, he argues. It’s just that those 4 a college education are far, far more likely to get divorced. Marriage
is for everyone; failed marriages are 5 the poor.
Bleak stuff. But it’s getting bleaker.
Derek’s post is based 6 a long-term study of young Baby Boomers, who were at least 46 7 old
by 2010. But among younger Americans, marriage really is looking more and more 8 something you’d
have to buy at Tiffany's. According to 2012 Census Bureau report, 9 shows the percentage of men who
have never married by age and income, the less a guy earns nowadays, the 10 likely they are to have ever
gotten married.
Well, that’s not l00 percent true. Among twenty-somethings there seems to be a rich bachelor 11
going on (or an overworked young professional effect, if you prefer). Those making $75,000 or more are
somewhat less likely to have been married than 12 making between $40,000 and $75,000.
This particular set of Census data unfortunately tells us much less about 13 and marriage. The
problem: Stay-at-home moms.
The key to remember, though, is that many educated, high-earning women, the sorts who are likely to meet
and 14 educated and high-earning men, leave the workforce or go part time once they have children. So a

publicist who once made over $70,000 a year might 15 earn $20,000 if she decided 16 work fewer
hours while 17 for her children at home.
Here’s why this trend--not just the move towards divorce like Derek talked about, 18 the move from
marriage entirely -- is so gloomy. Getting married, and staying married, is 19 of the surest ways of
securing a middle class life. By choosing 20 to wed in the first place, the poor are abandoning that chance
at stability.
B. Fill in each blank with a proper word from the following box. Change its form if necessary and write down
the required word on the answer sheet. (10 points)
lean
to
sound
spread
by
down
cry
lap

NEW DELHI, JANUARY 30, 1948 -- Mohandas K. Gandhi was 1 today by a Hindu extremist whose act
plunged India into 2 and fear.
Rioting broke out immediately in Bombay.
The seventy-eight-year-old leader whose people had christened him the Great Soul of India died at 3:45
P.M. (1:15 A M. EST) with his head cradled in the 3 of his sixteen-year-old granddaughter, Mani.
Just half an hour before, a Hindu fanatic, Ram Naturam, had pumped three bullets from a revolver 4
Gandhi’s frail body, emaciated by years of fasting and asceticism.
Gandhi was shot in the luxurious gardens of Birla House in the 5 of one thousand of his followers,
whom he was leading to the little summer pagoda where it was his habit 6 make his evening devotions.
Dressed as always in his homespun, sacklike dhoti, and 7 heavily on a staff of stout wood, Gandhi
was only a feet from the 8 when the shots were fired.
Gandhi crumpled instantly, 9 his hand to his forehead in the Hindu gesture of
10 to his assassin.
Three bullets penetrated his body at close range, one in the upper right thigh, one in the abdomen, and
11 in the chest.
The shots 12 like a string of firecrackers and it was a moment 13 Gandhi’s devotees realized
what had happened. Then they 14 on the assassin savagely and would have torn him to bits had not police
guards intervened with rifles and drawn bayonets.
Over all India the word 15 like wildfire. Minutes after the flash was received in Bombay rioting
broke out, with Hindu extremists 16 Moslems. A panic-stricken Moslem woman echoed the thoughts of
thousands with a 17 : “God help us all!”
In Delhi itself, in the quick-gathering 18 of the night, the news set the people on the march.
They walked slowly 19 the avenues and out of the squalid bazaars, converging on Birla House.
There 20 the thousands they stood weeping silently or moaning a wailing.
