Status is the honor or respect attached to a person’s position in society.It can also be affected by power and class，but not necessarily so.For example，a university professor may have a high status but not belong to a high social class or have a lot of power over others. 54.What can we learn about“the middle class”from Paragraph 2? A．People earning $50,000 a year belong to the middle class. B．Nearly half Americans belong to the middle class. C．People generally consider bus drivers as the middle class. D．Sociologists have a clear definition of the middle class. 55．According to the text，we know that________. A．power and class do not always correspond with each other B．status refers to a person’s economic position in society C．people with high status have a lot of control over others D．class is less important in deciding a person’s social rank 56．Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text? (P：Paragraph) 第56题为篇章结构题。根据文章的结构来看，文章在第一段总述了“Class，power and status are important in deciding people’s rank in society.”，然后分别在第二、三、四段说明了class，power以及status的具体含义。故本文为总——分结构，所以A项正确。 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文，用“总—分”的篇章结构介绍了等级、权力和身份在人类社会等级排列中的重要性. 54．解析：选B。细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“46% the middle class”可知B项是正确的。根据本段最后一句中的“a surgeon earning $500,000 a year and a bus driver earning $50,000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class”可知A项片面了，而公共汽车司机是自己把自己看成是中层阶级，所以C项是错误的。根据本段第三句中的“sociologists disagree on how these terms should be exactly defined”可知社会学家对阶层的定义也不明确，故D项错误。 55．解析：选A。细节理解题。根据文章第三段第三句“Power and class do not always go hand in hand...”可知权力和等级并不总是相对应的，故A项为正确答案。由第二段第一句知B项中的status应改为class。根据文章最后一段第二句“It can also be affected by power and class，but not necessarily so.”可知C项是错误的。通读第一段、第三、四段可知D项是错误的。 56．解析：选A。篇章结构题。文章第一段总述了三个方面(class，power，status)在定义阶层中的作用，第二段(class)、第三段(power)和第四段(status)分别叙述了它们的作用，文章结构为“总—分”式，所以选择A项。 本部分内容讲解结束 按ESC键退出全屏播放 1.leave...alone　不管；别惹；让……一个人待着； 和……单独在一起 (教材P12)She shouted “Leave me alone” and ran to her bed. 她高声嚷着：“让我独自待一会儿！”然后就跑上了床。 leave behind 　　　遗
