For Question 1, select one answer choice.　 Which of the following can be inferred from the overall process involved in preparing coffee beans?
A
Coffee beans must be roasted longer than coffee berries.
B
Soaking is the lengthiest step in the preparation process.
C
Consumer preference regarding the final strength and color of coffee varies.
D
A consumer’s passion for coffee determines exactly how the beans are processed.

The more exotic and unfamiliar the coffee bean, the longer it takes to prepare.

正确答案： B
解析：
本题是推断题。段落最后一句话“The berries are soaked, dried, sorted, and finally roasted for various amounts of time, depending on how strong and dark the consumer prefers his coffee”描述了咖啡豆的加工过程，加工咖啡豆的各道工序所用的时间会因消费者对咖啡的口感与色泽的要求不同而有所长短，由此可知，消费者对咖啡的口感和色泽要求各异，选项C符合题意。

问答题
Practice 2　　Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.　　Being truly human as a member of a society means seeing injustice and working to fix it. The human mind is endowed with not only the ability to perceive the world and act instinctively, but to visualize a better future and endeavor to realize it.　　Assignment: What is one great injustice in the world, and how should it be addresed? Write an essay in which you answer this question and explain the reasons for your choice. You may draw inspiration and support from literature, the arts, history, politics, science and technology, current events, or your experience or observation.

正确答案：【参考范文】
One great in justice that has not been adequately addressed is the perception that depression is a sign of weakness. The human mind is a complex puzzle. Psychological theories, diagnoses and treatment are constantly changing and may never be fully understood. Unfortunately, people tend to dismiss theories that don’t provide simple answers.
At best, psychologists can create a rough map of tendencies and patterns, connecting them as often as possible to findings in neurology and thus lending them a sense of scientific validity, . Diagnosing a complex disease like depression involves examining a wide constellation of symptoms over a long period of time. This doesn’t satisfy skeptics. Someone with the flu will show clear symptoms like fever, nausea, and congestion. A depressed person will have less measurable symptoms like lethargy, emotional polarity or apathy. Skeptics tend to view these as simply a lack of will. They do not understand that depression is an illness just like influenza or cancer. Someone with a tumor can’t just think happy thoughts and pretend it is not there. The same can be said about clinical depression.
People suffering from depression are unfairly stigmatized. They resist seeking help and so lead lives filled with unnecessary pain. Those lucky enough to find help are often ashamed to tell their peers. Friends often misconstrue symptoms of depression as personal slights. . Why didn’t she call me? Why is he not fun anymore? Bonds are thus broken due to miscommunication.
Depression alters one’s life at least as dramatically as more “accepted” illnesses do. People suffering from depression need others to understand the limitations deprssion imposes. They need to be allowed to heal. Advances in anti-depresents and mood stabilizers can help ease these adjustments, but social pressure makes it nearly impossible for the victims of depression to live in a suitable environment.
Emotional disorders are a remarkably sad facet of life. To lose control over one’s emotions is to lose track of hope. A world that denies one’s suffering makes this situation even worse. The key to resolving this problem is education. People of all ages need to understand how prevalent depression is and that it is not a cause for embarrassment. Hopefully, we will one day live in a world where emotional disorders will be treated with the same tolerance and compassion as “traditional” illnesses.
