根据短文,回答{TSE}题 Our analysis therefore suggests that the real problem facing the black community lies in the educational obstacles prior to the Phi)programs rather than in the pour-in of foreign students.Equally,our analysis suggests that we ought to treat foreign students as an important source of brain gain for us and that we ought to facilitate。rather than hinder,their arrival and their entry into our work force.How could this be done7There is a long-standing provision in our immigration laws under which those who bring in a certain amount of financial capital(which will“create jobs”)are allowed to immigrate:A foreigner who invests one million dollars in a commercial enterprise established in a high-unemployment area,which creates jobs for at least ten Americans。is automatically given immigrant status(i.e.,a green card).We suggest extending the idea from financial to human capital.Currently.graduate students who wish to stay on in the United States after their PhDs must be sponsored by their employers,a process that imposes substantial hardship both on the students and on smaller employers.The standard procedure is in two stages.First,the US Department of Labor must,on the basis of a US employer’s sponsorship,certify that“no American can do this job”.Then,the would-be immigrant must apply for immigrant status at the Immigration and Naturalization Service(INS).If all goes right,the entire process takes about two vears(considerably more for citizens of certain countries).But things may not go right:there could be Droblems at either stage.Thus,the employer or the“alien”must hire an immigration lawyer.The current process,then,is costly both to the would-be immigrant and to the employer(and hence,it unfairly Denalizes smaller firms that cannot afford this expensive process and so cannot recruit this foreign talent).The Immigration and Naturalization Act of l990 introduced an alternative route for professors and researchers to secure immigrant status.Essentially,it eliminates the average processing time to about one year,but it does not eliminate any of the uncertainty or the need for expensive legal counsel.We budget that automatic green cards be given to all those who obtain a Phi)in the science and engineering programs at our universities.In adopting such a“guaranteed green card”proposal,we would be recognizing the important contribution that these students make to our leading position in science by giving equal weight to human capital and financial capital.{TS}Prior to this text,the author has most probably made an analysis of___________.[A]brain gain in the United States[B]the cause of problems of the black people[C]the US educational programs for blacks[D]the procedure of foreign students’immigration

根据短文,回答11~15题In fl democratic society citizens are encouraged to forn their own opinions on candidates for public offices。taxes,constitutional amendments,environmental concerns,foreign policy,and other issues.The opinions held by any population are shaped and manipulated by several factors:individual circumstances,the mass media,special-interest groups,and opinion leaders. Wealthy people tend to think differently on social issues from poor people.Factory workers probably do not sbare the same views as white-collar workers,non-union workers.Women employed outside their homes soInetimes have perspectives different from those of full—time homernakers.In these and other ways individual status shapes one’s view of current events. The mass media,especially television,are powerful influences on the way people think and act. GoverDinent officials note how mail from the public tends to“follow the headlines”.Whatever is featured in newspapers and magazines and on television attracts enough attention that people begin to inform themselves and to express opinions. The mass media have also created larger audiences for government and a wider range of public issues than existed before.Prior to television and the national editions of newspapers,issues and ca耐idates tended to remain localized.In Great Britain and West Germany,for example,elections to the national legislatures were usually viewed by voters as local contests.Today’s elections are seen as struggles between party Ieaders and programs.In the United States radio and television have been beneficial to the presidency.Since the days of Franklin D.Roosevelt and his“fireside chats”,presidents haveappealed directly to a national audience over the heads of Congress to advocate their programs. Special—interest groups spend vast sulns annually trying to influence public opinion.Public utilities,for instance,tried to sway public opinionin favor of nuclear power plants.Opposed to them were citizens’ organizations successful advertising campaign designed to prevent the passage of medicare. Opinion leaders are usually such prominent public figures as politicians,some business personalities,and celebrity athletes.The opinions of these individuals,whether informed and intelligent or not,carry weight with some segments of the population.Some individuals,suchas Nobel Prize winners,are suddenly thrust into public view by the media.By quickly reaching a large audience,their views gain a hearing and are perhaps influential in shaping views on complex issues. How many factors could shape public opinion,as mentioned in the text?[A]2. [B]3. [C]4. [D]5.
