单选题What“change”did John McCain once called for during the election campaign?

A．Increasing tax．
B．Obliging insurers to offer affordable coverage to all people regardless of pre-existing conditions．
C．Insurance should be bought by individual instead of being provided by employers．
D．To get employers out of health insurance．

参考答案A

解析:由第六段最后两句“But some kind of increase is inescapa-ble．This one makes more sense than most．(但某种形式的增税是不可避免的。这种形式比其他大多数形式都更有意义。)”可知，第七段作者提到的美国总统应该说的观点和约翰·麦凯恩在竞选时曾经呼吁的改变指的是“增加税收”。选项B只是作者认为解决被迫进入零售市场的高风险员工医疗保险的一个办法。由第七段第五句“For example，it seems that he now prefer an indi-vidual mandate to buy insurance．(比如，他目前似乎更倾向于要求个人购买保险。)”可知，选项C是奥巴马改变立场后的一个观点。由第五段第一句“However，to get employers out of health in-surance should be an aim，not something to be feared．(但是，让雇主脱离医疗保险应该是个目标，而非值得畏惧的事情。)”可知，选项D是作者的一个观点。所以，本题选择A。

单选题根据下面资料，回答题
According to Peter Salovey, Yale psychologist and author of the term EQ, IQ gets you hired and EQ gets you promoted.
Salovey tells of a simple test. Some four-year-old kids were invited into a room and were giv-en the following instruction: "You can have this marshmallow right now; or if you wait, you can have two marshmallows when I get back. " Then, the researcher left. Some kids grabbed for the treat as soon as the researcher was out the door, while others waited for the researcher to return. By the time the kids reached high school, significant differences appeared between the two groups.
The kids who held out for two marshmallows were better adjusted, more popular, more adventur-ous, more confident, and more dependable than kids in the quick gratification group. The latter group was also more likely to be lonely, more easily frustrated, more stubborn, more likely to buckle under stress, and more likely to shy away from challenges. When both groups took scholas-tic aptitude tests, the "hold out group" walloped the "quick gratification group" by 210 points (the test scores range from a minimum of 200 points to a maximum of 800, with an average for all students of 500 points).
Researchers have been discussing whether it´ s possible to raise a person´ s IQ. Geneticists say No,while social scientists say Yes. But while brain power researchers continue the debate, social science re-searchers have concluded that it´ s possible to improve a person´ s EQ, and in particular, a person´s "people skills, " such as empathy, graciousness, and the ability to "read" a social situation.
According to the social scientists, there is little doubt that people without sufficient EQ will have a hard time surviving in life. EQ is perhaps best observed in people described as either pessi-mists or optimists. Optimistic people have high EQ and treat obstacles as minor, while the pessi-mistic people have low EQ and personalizes all setbacks. In social research circles, EQ denotes one´ s ability to survive, and it´ s here that there may be an overlap between EQ, IQ, genetics and environment. As to that, I am reminded of the words of Darwin, "The biggest, the smartest, and the strongest are not the survivors. Rather, the survivors are the most adaptable. " Those of us who survive and thrive in this complex world are not only the most adaptable, but also the most op-timistic and the most likely to have a high EQ.
EQ gets you promoted，not because__________．

A．a person with high EQ is better adjusted
B．a person with high EQ is more stubborn
C．a person with high EQ is more confident
D．A person with high EQ is more popular
