In Britain, people have different attitudes to the police. Most people generally 21 them andthe job they do--although there are certain people who do not believe that the police 22have thepower that they do.

Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spendall,or a lot of, his time 25 up and down main roads and motorways. A traffic policeman has tohelp keep the traffic moving, stop 26 motorists and help when there is an accident.

We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policem'a~, even if he is not a detective( 侦探),will often have to help 30 and arrest criminals.

The police do an absolutely necessary job, they do it 34 well and I support them., but I do not envy policemen. I do not think that I could 35 do the job of a policeman.

IV. Reading Comprehension ( 60 points)

enough money to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears.

By the end of World War 11, these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as au-tomobiles and new houses.
By 1957 or 1958 this third level of needs was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared:the "life-enriching" level.

Con-sumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance,crime, and prejudice.
