　　Within the nineteenth century, the mechanization of farming and the fencing of range land opened the agricultural heart of North America to intensive development. For the natural geographic center of this region, Chicago became the crossroads of vast transportation network. The great waterway systems of the Mississippi valley and the Great Lakes was linked in Chicago in 1847, which the IllinoisMichigan Canal was opened to traffic. Within the next year, rail lines began to operate trains to and from the city. The raise of agricultural activity demanded facilities for the storage and milling of grain, the slaughtering of cattle, and the processing and shipment of meat. The manufacture of farm machinery branched out into the basic metalfabricating and woodworking industries. Which soon attracted banks and another financial institutions. Four years after the end of the Civil War, Chicago was already established as the focal point of the largest system of inland waterways in the world and the hub of a rail network where extended to the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts. Productive potential of the city was unparalleled, and the pace of its industrial expansion reached explosive proportions.

　　　Part III Short Answer Questions (15 minutes)
　　Directions: In this part, there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words).
　　Since the settlement of Jamestown in 1607, well over 45 million people have immigrated to the United States. Up until 1882, the policy of the United States was almost one of free and unrestricted admittance. The country was regarded as the land of the free, a haven for those oppressed by tyrants, and a place of opportunity.
　　Immigration of white ethnics to the United States can be viewed from the perspective of old migration and new migration. The old migration consisted of people from northern Europe who came before the 1880s. The new migration was much larger in numbers and consisted of people from Southern and Eastern Europe who came between 1880 and 1920. The ethnic groups that made up the old migration included the English, Dutch, French, Germans, Irish, Scandinavians, Scots, and Welsh. The new migration included Poles, Hungarians, Ukrainians, Russians, Italians, Greeks, Portuguese, and Armenians.
　　The new migration sent far more immigrants to the United States than the old migration. The earlier immigrants felt threatened by the waves of unskilled and uneducated newcomers whose appearance and culture were so different from their own. Public pressure for immigration restriction increased. After 1921 quotas were established limiting the number of people that could arrive from any particular country. The quotas were specifically designed to discriminate against potential immigrants from the southern and eastern European countries. This discriminatory immigration policy remained in effect until 1965 when a new policy was established.
　　In contrast to the stereotype of the European immigrant arriving at Ellis Island as in previous eras, todays immigrant is likely to be from the Orient and arrive by plane. Since 1970, Asian immigrants have been rising rapidly both in number and as a percentage of all immigrants to the United States. In fact, the United States Asian immigrant population is increasing faster than the foreignborn population from Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and Canada combined. Europe, on the other hand, no longer sends many of its natives to Americas shores. Even with the massive immigration from Europe during their early history, only 26 percent of todays foreign born population came from Europe, and only 13 percent of them have arrived since 1980.

　　55. D。You cant be too careful.这是一个四六级考试中常见的句型，表示“你再怎么小心也不过分”。注意英语中类似的用否定句形式表示肯定的意思的情况还有很多。比如：I cant agree with you more. 我十分同意你的意见。I couldnt care less. 我才不在乎呢。
　　56. C。comply with：(较正式用语)遵守。consent的用法也比较正式一般和to连用表示“同意”。遵守也可以说abide by。obey是及物动词，后面直接加宾语。
　　57. B。in between：在两点之间。
　　58. A。look into ＝ investigate：调查。look over：检查。look after：照看。
　　59. B。but for：如果没有，要不是。它在句子中的功能相当于一个介词，后面跟名词或名词性词组。这也是一种虚拟条件句，在这里假设的情况并不是以条件从句表示出来，而是通过but for引导的介词短语来表示的。
　　60. D。prompt：及时的，敏捷的。alert：警觉的。敏感的。acute：敏锐的。尖锐的。profound：深刻的。
　　61. D。neednt have done something表示“本不必”去完成过去的某个行为。Must have done something表示对过去已经做的事情的肯定推测。ought to have done something表示“本来该做某事而未做”。couldnt have done something表示“不可能做了某事”。

　　65. D。to assign someone a job：给某人安排工作。或者to assign a job to someone也可以。
　　66. A。be to blame是一个习惯搭配，意为“有责任，该受到责备”。这是个比较特殊的用法。

　　68. D。at random：随机地，任意地。on average：平均。
　　69. A。此处实际上是一个用关系代词which引导的非限定性定语从句。
　　70. B。Had it not been相当于But for，“如果没有，如果不是……”。后面跟名词。主句用虚拟语气。
