33、day that business institutions (机构) enjoy more respect and popularity in American society than any other kind of organization, including the government. Why do business institutions possess (=have) that? One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the competition than ot
34、her institutions in society. Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and successfulness by most Americans, competitive business institutions are respected. Competition is not only good in itself; it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual (个人的) freedom,
35、 equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.Competition protects the freedom of the individual by making sure that there is no monopoly (垄断) of power. Different from one, all-powerful government, many businesses compete against each other for profits. Usually, if one business tries to take
36、 unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly. Where many businesses compete for the customers dollars, they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors (下属) or slaves.A comparison is often made between business, which is competitive, an
37、d government, which is a monopoly. Because business is competitive, many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government, even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not. Many Americans believe, then, that competition is as important, or
38、even more important, than democracy (民主) in keeping freedom on.Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the idea of equality of opportunity. Competition is seen as an open and fair race where successfulness goes to the smartest and most hardworking person regardless of (=without consid
39、ering) his or her social class background. Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternative (其他选择) to social ranks (=positions) based on family backgrounds. Business is therefore viewed as an expression of the idea of equality of opportunity rather than the idea of special rights.32.
40、 The statement “The business of America is business” probably means “_”A. The business institutions in America are concerned with trade. B. Business problems are of great importance to the American government. C. Business is of major concern to Americans. D. America is a great power in world busines
41、s. 33.

42、nest businessmen.B. Both businessmen and their customers. C. People with ideas of equality and freedom.D. Both business institutions and government.35. It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes _.A. Americans have more goals than people in other countries B. American businesses ar
43、e more democratic than those in other countries C. businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in AmericaD. in many countries successfulness often depends on ones social status (=position) 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Thekeytodealingwithtest-dayjitt
