It has two aspects: that of the wife who is more of a success than her husband and that of the wife who must rely heavily on her husband for help with domestic tasks. There are various ways in which the impact of the first difficulty can be reduced. Provided that husband and wife are not in the same or directly comparable lines of work, the harsh fact of her greater success can be obscured by a genial conspiracy to reject a purely monetary measure of achievement as intolerably crude. Where there are ranks, it is best if the couple work in different fields so that the husband can find some special reason for the superiority of the lowest figure in his to the most elevated in his wifes.A problem that affects a much larger number of working wives is the need to re-allocate domestic tasks if there are children. In The Road to Wigan Pier George Orwell wrote of the unemployed of the Lancashire coalfields: “Practically never . in a working-class home, will you see the man doing a stroke of the housework. Unemployment has not changed this convention, which on the face of it seems a little unfair. The man is idle from morning to night but the woman is as busy as ever - more so, indeed, because she has to manage with less money. Yet so far as my experience goes the women do not protest. They feel that a man would lose his manhood if, merely because he was out of work, he developed in a Mary Ann.”It is over the care of young children that this re-allocation of duties becomes really significant. For this, unlike the cooking of fish fingers or the making of beds, is an inescapably time-consuming occupation, and time is what the fully employed wife has no more to spare of than her husband.The male initiative in courtship is a pretty indiscriminate affair, something that is tried on with any remotely plausible woman who comes within range and, of course, with all degrees of tentativeness. What decides the issue of whether a genuine courtship is going to get under way is the womans response. If she shows interest the engines of persuasion are set in movement. The truth is that in courtship society gives women the real power while pretending to give it to men.What does seem clear is that the more men and women are together, at work and away from it, the more the comprehensive amorousness of men towards women will have to go, despite all its past evolutionary services. For it is this that makes inferiority at work abrasive and, more indirectly, makes domestic work seem unmanly, if there is to be an equalizing redistribution of economic and domestic tasks between men and women there must be a compensating redistribution of the erotic initiative. If women will no longer let us beat them they must allow us to join them as the blushing recipients of flowers and chocolates.1. The author advises the working wife who is more successful than her husband to.A. work in the same sort of job as her husband.B. play down her success, making it sound unimportant.C. stress how much the family gains from her high salary.D. introduce more labour-saving machinery into the home.2. Which of the following words is used literally, NOT metaphorically (比喻地)?A. Heavily (Paragraph One).B. Convention (Paragraph Two).C. Engines (Paragraph Four).D. Abrasive (Paragraph Five).3. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about the present form of courtship?A. Men are equally serious about courtship.B. Each man “makes passes” at many women.C. The womans reaction decides the fate of courtship.D. The man leaves himself the opportunity to give up the chase quickly.BWith a large part of the worlds population living close to the oceans, rising sea levels bring the potential for destructive (破坏性的)results. But scientists are stilt unable to make predictions exact enough for people to plan to handle the loss of land and the threat to coastal communities expected over this century.“We know sea level is going to rise, but how much, and how fast, and where, we really still dont know, said Josh Willis, a climate scientist.The ocean isnt like water in a bathtub. It doesnt rise all the same as more water pours in. As global warming raises sea levels, some places are expected to see higher-than-average increases, and a few places, may even see decreases.Its repotted that over the course of this century, sea levels will rise between 8 inches and 6.6 feet around the planet. Scientists know this increase will be driven by the expansion of water as it warmswarmer water takes up more spaceand the melting of ice. But the effects of warming water and melting ice on sea-level rise are expected to vary from area to area. And the melting of ice of the Antarctic and Greenland presents the largest uncertainty for the future, but air, land and water also play roles in changes to sea level. For example, sea level near the ice getting melt actually decreases, because the ground under the melting ice rises as the heavy ice disappears.Climate change is expected to change ocean currents and the winds that help drive ocean currents. These changes will affect the distribution of heat within the oceans, and, as a result, affect changes in sea level.Nowadays, scientists use two types of models to make predictions about the future of sea levels, but the two dont agree. If scientists cant accurately predict sea-level increase for the coming years, the least we can do is measure what happening today with the help of the satellite, Jason-2, but its reaching the end of its operational life.4.The first paragraph implies that_ .A. the rising sea levels mainly happens near the coastB. people living in coastal communities have to moveC. scientists have ways to handle the rising sea levelsD. coastal cities are easily affected by the rising sea levels5.What does the writer mean by saying The ocean isnt like water in a bathtub in the third paragraph?A. The rising sea level is hard to tell. B. The ocean can be easily controlled.C The ocean isnt equal to a bathtub in size. D. There is too much water for us to control.6.According to the text, which of the following shows the right cause and effect?climate change; ocean currents; the winds; changes in sea level; the distribution of heatA. B. C. D. 7.What problems will scientists meet with in predicting future climate changes?A. Its too difficult to measure whats happening.B. Types of models for prediction are difficult to set up.C. There will probably be no satellites to help the scientists.D. There arent enough scientists studying the changes of sea levels.CMy day began on a definitely sour note when I saw my six-year-old wrestling with a limb of my azalea（杜鹃花）bush. By the time I got outside, hed broken it. “Can I take this to school today?” he asked. With a wave of my hand, I sent him off. I turned my back so he wouldnt see the tears gathering in my eyes.The washing machine had leaked on my brand-new linoleum. If only my husband had just taken the time to fix it the night before when I asked him instead of playing checkers with Jonathan.It was days like this that made me want to quit. I just wanted to drive up to the mountains, hide in a cave, and never come out.Somehow I spent most of the day washing and drying clothes and thinking how love had disappeared from my life. As I finished hanging up the last of my husbands shirts, I looked at the clock. 2:30. I was late. Jonathans class let out at 2:15 and I hurriedly drove to the school.I was out of breath by the time I knocked on the teachers door and peered through the glass. She rustled through the door and took me aside. “I want to talk to you about Jonathan,” she said.I prepared myself for the worst. Nothing would have surprised me. “Did you know Jonathan brought flowers to school today?” she asked. I nodded, thinking about my favorite bush and trying to hide the hurt in my eyes. “Let me tell you about yesterday,” the teacher insisted. “See that little girl?” I watched the bright-eyed child laugh and point to a colorful picture taped to the wall. I nodded.“Well, yesterday she was almost hysterical. Her mother and father are going through a nasty divorce. She told me she didnt want to live, she wished she could die. I watched that little girl bury her face in her hands and say loud enough for the class to hear, Nobody loves me. I did all I could to comfort her, but it only seemed to make matters worse.” “I thought you wanted to talk to me about Jonathan,” I said.“I do,” she said, touching the sleeve of my blouse. “Today your son walked straight over to that child. I watched him hand her some pretty pink flowers and whisper, I love you.“I felt my heart swell with pride for what my son had done. I smiled at the teacher. “Thank you,” I said, reaching for Jonathans hand, “youve made my day.”Later that evening, I began pulling weeds from around my azalea bush. As my mind wandered back to the love Jonathan showed the little girl, a biblical verse came to me: “.these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” While my son had put love into practice, I had only felt anger.I heard the familiar squeak of my husbands brakes as he pulled into the drive. I snapped a small limb bristling with hot pink azaleas off the bush. I felt the seed of love that God planted in my family beginning to bloom once again in me. My husbands eyes widened in surprise as I handed him the flowers. “I love you,” I said.8. Why did the woman cry when seeing her son had broken the azalea bush? A. Because she could not tolerate the harm to it. B. Because it made her bad mood even worse. C. Because her son did not ask her for permission. D. Because she wanted to hand it to her husband.9. The writer wanted to hide in the mountain cave probably for the reason of . A. feeling fed up with her endless daily housework B. her husbands failing to fix the machine in time C. boring daily routine with a feeling of lack of love D. her hoping to seek happiness in a brand new place10. We can infer from the passage that the writer expressed love to her husband in that . A. she was inspired by her son that love was supposed to be felt and practiced B. she felt guilty that she misunderstood her husband and wanted to apologize C. she felt it necessary to have a complete family for the happiness of herself D. she wanted to prove her love and expected the same words from her husbandDBuck lived in Mr. Millers big house in the sunny Santa Clara valley. There were large gardens and fields of fruit trees around the house, and a river nearby. In a big place like this, of course, there were many dogs. There were house dogs and farm dogs, but they were not important. Buck was chief dog; he was born here, and this was his place. He was four years old and weighed sixty kilos. He went swimming with Mr. Millers sons, and walking with his daughters. He carried the grandchildren on his back, and he sat at Mr. Millers feet in front of the fire in winter. But this was 1897, and Buck did not know that men and dogs we
