The greatest recent changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there was an unusual shortening of the time of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the 19th century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children ,her work is lightened by household appliances(家用电器)and convenience foods.
(87)This important change in women’s way of life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity and most of them took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger ,more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Many more after wads, return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money and running the home, according to the abilities and interest of each of them.
21.According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to ________.
A. stay at home after leaving school B. marry men younger than themselves
C. start working again later in life D. marry while still at school
22.We are told that in an average family about 1990________.
A. many children died before they were five
B. the youngest child would be fifteen
C. seven of eight children lived to be more than five
D. four or five children died when they were five
23. Many girls, the passage says, are now likely to ________.
A. marry so that they can get a job
B. leave school as soon as they can
C. give up their jobs for good after they are married
D. continue working until they are going to have a baby
24.One reason why the women of today takes a job is that she .
A. is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselves
B. does not like children herself
C. need not worry about food for her children
D. can retire from family responsibilities
25. Nowadays, a husband tends to .
A. play a greater part in looking after the children
B. help his wife by doing most of the housework
C. feel dissatisfied with role in the family
D. take a part-time jib so that he can help in the home
He slept for a good six hours, and the sun was high when he awoke . As he sat up and yawned a pair of strong hands seized his shoulders, and in a moment his wrists were tied tightly together behind his back . He turned and stared into Bronco’s hairy face. “What’s this?” he said . The old man tested the knots before answering. “Orders , Black Peter’s changed his mind . Until we can check on you . ”
Martin swore loudly , then asked if he could talk to Black Peter . Branko shook his head . “He’s busy.” Martin was seized by despair. Now all his plans might fall unless he could gain the confidence of Black Peter .
After some thought he stood up and walked to the mouth of the tunnel. Branko followed. The grassy hollows were alive with men busy with their various duties . There must have been a stream somewhere nearby, for a long line of men were taking their horses to the water ; others were setting up tents and lighting fire .(88) Immediately opposite was another tunnel at the entrance of which stood two guards armed with guns . Behind them Martin made out the giant form of Black Peter . “There he is , ”he said . “I must talk to him.” Branko tried to stop him , but he pushed him aside , walked to the mouth of the tunnel and called out : “ Black Peter ! I must talk to you . ”
The leader of the White Eagles was seated on a wooden box , deep in conversation with two rough-looking men . “What is it ? ” he said . “ Why are you checking on me ? ”Martin replied . “ I need to be sure bout you , ” said Black Peter . “There’s too much to close .”He pointed into the tunnel , and Martin saw the wooden boxes that he guessed must contain the gold bars . “Is that the treasure?” he asked . Black Peter stood up, struggling between his desire for secrecy and an obvious pride in the success of his plans . “Yes,” he said at last.

At present, in many American cities especially, many teachers in the public schools say they are underpaid (少付工资的). They point to jobs such as secretary or truck driver, which often pay more to start than that of the teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught for several year.
Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries.() It is by history a profession that has provided rewards in addition to money --- the satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, for many, than there are rewards.
Unruly (不守秩序的) students, especially in big cities, large classes and a lack of support from the public in terms of money and understanding have led many public school teachers to leave the profession.
(90)As a result, many of the best students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields.
Another reason for this change in teacher candidates (申请求职者) is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s and 1970s, one of the most popular choices for women was teaching. But as other professions, such as law and medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs. Thus, a major pool of excellent candidates for the teaching profession dwindled (减少).
31.Which of the following can give us a true picture of jobs in the United States?
A. People in most professions usually get the same pay at the beginning.
B. A beginning worker in medicine earns less than one in any other field.
C. A beginning teacher earns as much as a truck driver who has worked for several years.
D. A teacher with several years’ teaching experience can’t make as much as a new lawyer.
32.The writer points out the present situation of teaching, that is, _____.
A. teaching is a profession that can always attract best students to work in
B. teaching can provide rewards as well as high salaries
C. teachers work hard and make a small income compared to workers in many other jobs
D. teachers are no longer underpaid
33.Many public school teachers turn to other professions because of _____.
A. the unruly students and large classes
B. the difficulties of teaching as well as a lack of money, support and understanding
C. the attracting power of other jobs
D. a lack of satisfaction of sharing knowledge and influencing others
34.Which of the following is not a reason that influences women in their decision to become teachers?
A. he How much income the job can pay. B.Changing status of women.
C.Less housework for women to do. D.More professions opened up to women.
35.The writer believes that change in teachers’ status in the United States ___.
A. is not great B. needs time

Public transportation companies were the first group 73 from the move. The No. 300 Bus alone has annually 74 4 million yuan of ad earnings to its company. At the same time, business people are happy to find a comparatively cheap, 75 widely influential, advertising medium.
Advertising on buses, a form quickly accepted by Beijing residents, adds a new 76 line to the city, instead of 77 the capital’s image.

Part II Reading Comprehension
我听到很多家长抱怨说他们十几岁的孩子特犟。我倒希望你们犟。到你们这个年龄,你们应该离开父母的呵护而成长。你们应该学会。但是好好看看现在的犟。似乎十几岁的孩子还是在走老路,要表现出他们与父母的意见相左。他们中大多数人不是勇敢地闯自己的路,而是为了放心而相互紧牵着手。
他们声称想随心所欲的穿衣服。但他们穿的却都相同。他们开始钟情新的音乐,但不知怎么最后还是挤作一团听同一唱片。他们如此这般地思考问题和采取行动,其出发点就是大伙这么做。他们从自己小的封闭空间里走了出来,可是又走进了大一点的空间把自己封闭起来。
十几岁的人要抵住大众化浪潮而走自己的路是越来越难了。工业已经为十几岁的人牢牢地开辟了一个市场。现如今,每个十几岁的人都能从广告中了解到一个十几岁的人应该拥有什么,应该是什么样的人。而且现在很多做父母的开始对孩子的从众行为赞赏有加。这些对想走自己的路的十几岁的人来说形成了巨大的障碍。
但这个障碍值得去跨越,自己想走的路值得去走。你也许想听古典音乐而不想去参加聚会;其他人都在收集唱片时,你可能想收集石头;或许你有一些想法不介意马上与你的同学共享。那么好,去做吧。找到自我,成就自我。你会受到人们的尊敬,人们尊敬你就因为你与众不同。这是惟一真正重要的流行做法。

答案:C 最后一段“Find yourself . Be yourself…..people who respect you for who you are.”
新近最大的社会变化要数女性生活的变化了。20世纪,女性照料孩子的时间明显缩短。19世纪结婚的女性当时年龄应在25岁左右,可能会生养七八个孩子,其中有四五个只能活到5岁。此时,最小的孩子也有15岁了,做母亲的50出头,指望还能活20年。在这余下的20年中,习惯、机会还有身体都使她不太可能去干活挣钱了。如今的女性,结婚年龄早,生养孩子少。一般情况下,45岁的母亲最小的孩子也会有15岁,可以干活挣钱一直到60退休。虽然她也得照料孩子,但家用电器、方便食品,减少了家务劳动的强度。
妇女生活方式的这种重要变化到最近才开始全面影响妇女的经济地位。就在几年前,大部分女孩一有机会就奔出校门,而且大部分都找正式的全日制工作。然而一旦结婚,她们一般马上辞去工作,从此相夫教子。如今,中学毕业年龄为16岁,很多女孩子年龄还要大点。虽然她们普遍结婚年龄小了,但更多的已婚妇女会一直工作到她们的第一个孩子出生前。还有更多的人以后又会找正式的工作或打份零工。这种变化导致一种新的婚姻关系的出现。做丈夫的承担起了更多的责任,家庭生活感到满足,同时,夫妇双方可以根据各自的能力和兴趣在经济上、家务上平等互补。
16.根据短文,现在妇女 很平常。
A.离开学校后待在家里 B.嫁给比自己年轻的男人
C.晚年再工作 D.读书时就结婚
答案:C 第二段第五句“ Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work.”

A.许多孩子不到5岁就夭折了 B.7到8个孩子能活到5岁
C.最小的孩子也将15岁 D.4到5个孩子5岁时夭折了

A.结婚后永远放弃了她们的工作 B.尽快离开学校
C.为了找到工作而结婚 D.继续工作直到有孩子
答案:D 第二段第四句最后部分:more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.
19. 今天的妇女选择工作,其中一个理由是她 。
A.年轻而孩子都大了可以照顾自己了 B.自己不喜欢孩子
C.无须担心孩子们吃的 D.达到60岁时可以不承担家庭责任

当前,特别是在很多美国城市,很多公立学校的老师说他们工资待遇底了。他们把矛头指向了如秘书、卡车司机的工作,这些工作经常开始时工资就要比教师的高。在很多其他领域,例如律师、药师、电脑工程师,他们刚开始工作的人也比一个教书教了几年的老师赚得多。
教师从来没有作为一个高薪职业来吸引人们。从古到今,教书一直是除了金钱以外还会给与其他回报的职业。这些回报便是分享知识,影响他人以及指导年
轻人所获得的满足感。但是在过去的几年里,教书有了更多的困难,这远远多于它所带来的回报。
特别是在大的城市里,不守规矩的学生,大的班集,以及缺少大众财政的支持和理解,这些都导致许多公立学校的老师离开了他们职位。
结果,原来打算一辈子从教的许多优秀学生都改行了。
另一个原因使得从教的人的变化是在美国妇女地位的改变。直到二十世纪六十年代和七十年代末,一个对妇女而言最流行的选择就是教书。但是作为其他的职业,如律师、药师也对妇女开放了,她们不再全心投入教书培训的计划了。因
此,准备从教的一大部分的优秀毕业生减少了。
渐渐的工作人员和其他人意识到了教师的地位状态被影响了。他们商量着来改变。但是这种变化对美国这样一个巨大的社会并不是容易的事情。人们的观念已经形成了很多年了,有时改变需要很多年。
31.下列哪一个选项能给我们一个在美国正确的工作描述
A.在大多数的职位上人们经常在最初的时候获得同样的薪水
B.刚开始工作的药师比任何其他领域的人赚得少
C. 刚开始工作的老师和工作了几年的客车司机赚得一样多
D. 一个有着几年教书经验的老师没有一个新的律师赚的多。

A. 教师是一个总能吸引优秀学生来工作的职业
B. 教师能提供很高的薪水
C. 教师工作辛苦,但相比很多其他领域的工作而言,赚很少的钱
D. 教师不再无偿工作
答案:C选项可由第四段内容排除,B选项由文中第二段第一句可排除。由文中“more difficulties in teaching ”,及第一段内容可知选C。
33. 许多公立学校的老师转向其他的行业是因为 。
A.不守规矩的学生和大的班集 B. 教学困难,又缺少钱
C.其他工作的强大的吸引力 D.缺少分享知识和影响他人的满足感

C.妇女做更少的家务 D.更多的职业向妇女开放
答案:C由文中第五段“changing status of women ” “such as law and medicine opened up to women” 。 C选项未涉及。
