Jake, who is a sculptor by trade, is the symbol of the so-called“trophy dad”. The 37-year-old father stays at home and stays fit and expertly arrange nap time and tea parties the next. And he is not alone. According to the most recent research, the number of stay-at-home fathers in the United States has more than doubled in the past 10 years, up to 154, 000. Every day, Jake picks out Skylars clothes, fixes her hair, and takes her to and from activities. While he tells everyone he is very proud to be a stay-at-home dad, Jake said people will give him mixed reactions, some of which seem unfriendly. “I think its often regarded as something that people do without having a choice about it, ”he said, “This is something I was really willing to do. ”But its a choice that not many families choose to make and the vast majority of at-home parents are still mothers. While dads stay home by choice, many admit they made less money than their wives when they were working before they made the decision to take care of the kids full time. Bryan was a teacher and his wife was a lawyer, making more money than him, so he decided to become a stay-at-home dad. Greg spent 12 years serving in the Navy and now stays at home with four kids, while his wife works as the CEO of a big company. Jake said he feels“lucky”to be able to make their home situation work, and his wife seemed to agree. “I am grateful that he is willing to do it, ”Erica said, “What is provided for our daughter is so great and so I feel really grateful to him for it. ”“I dont view any of this as a challenge; its an opportunity. ”Jake said. 56. What can we learn about Jake in the passage? A. He is a good tax lawyer. B. He helps Erica look after Skylar. C. He is a stay-at-home father. D. He manages his work at home. 57. How does Jake feel at looking after his daughter at home? A. Excited. B. Sad. C. Helpless. D. Upset. 58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. Staying fit is the main work for Jake at home. B. Most people think highly of stay-at-home fathers. C. To make more money is one of the reasons for stay-at-home fathers. D. Jake regards it as a challenge instead of an opportunity. 59. Whats the main idea of the passage? A. The rise of stay-at-home fathers in the United States. B. The fall of working mothers in the United States. C. The reason for mothers not staying at home in the United States. D. The importance of stay-at-home fathers in the United States. (B)(原创)Hes adored by women, envied by men and has a wonderful life others can only dream of. Yet as David Beckham says, he can count his true friends on less than one hand and is happy that way. Then the question comes up: how many friends do we actually need? This week, the footballer revealed in an interview with US Mens Health, “Ive got three really good friends. Its all you need. Id rather have three really good friends than 20 good friends. ”It comes just months after fellow global heartthrob(令人心跳的人)Justin Timberlake said his best friend was a childhood school boy, adding, “I grew up in a small town and I could count my friends on one hand and I still live that way. ”According to Professor Robin Dunbar, head of Oxford University and author of How Many Friends Does One Person Need, the maximum number of people with whom we can really hold personal relationships is 150. As for close friends, most of us will boast only fivea number backed by an old Portuguese proverb: “You only have five true friends, and the rest is landscape. ”A recent study from Americas Cornell University, meanwhile, is more conservative(保守的)still, it claims that, these days, most of us have just two dearest friends. Robin Dunbar adds that we are often too concerned about the number of friends we have. Ask yourself about the quality of your friendships, not about the quantity. As we get older we tend to become more selective about the people we let into our inner circle. Friends often slip by the wayside simply because of the demands of work and family life which mean less time to keep all our relationships. 60. According to the passage David Beckham is a(n). A. writerB. footballerC. singerD. officer61. How many friends does Justin Timberlake probably have? A. 1. B. 5. C. 20. D. 150. 62. According to Dunbar, what is very important for your friendships? A.

What is most important for friendshipD. How should we make close friends(C)Sudden oak death arrived in Britain from America, where it removed the oak population, just under a decade ago via imported plants. In Britain the disease spared oaks and jumped to rhododendrons(杜鹃花)and Japanese larch trees. In the last year it has taken hold along the west of the country in larch plantations. Already 4 million trees have been felled or marked for destruction. More are expected to be chopped down in the coming years because the warmer, wetter conditions expected with climate change encourage the spread of the disease. In the latest cull(剔除), a landowner in Somerset was forced to cut down 50, 000 trees, while the National Trust chopped down 10, 000 larch trees in the area. Landowners face crippling costs for felling sick trees. Philip Chambers said that landowners had been forced to pay to chop down larch trees even though the timber was worth very little. He compared the situation to the foot and mouth crisis when farmers were forced to cull their cows to stop the disease spreading. “It is for trees what foot and mouth was for cows, except there is no compensation(补偿)for the landed gentry. ”he said. Experts from the Forestry Commission are carrying out inspections across Britain and will order a cull wherever the disease is found. It takes hold quickly, causing bleeding lesions, blackened or wilted leaves and ultimately death. It can also affect garden shrubs, such as rhododendron and camellia. Charlton Clark, of the commission, said landowners could be offered a small grant to pay for the culls. “The equivalent of 4, 400 football pitches of Japanese larch have so far been confirmed as infected with ramorum disease in the UK, and they either have been or will be felled to prevent the disease from spreading. ”he said. There is no known cure for the disease and Mr Clark warned that Japanese larch could be wiped out in the South West. 64. What caused a lot of oak trees in Britain to be cut down? A. The diseasesudden oak death. B. Imported plants from America. C. The extremely bad weather. D. The warmer, wetter conditions. 65. The underlined words“4 million trees”in Paragraph 2 probably refer to. A. oaksB. rhododendronsC. larchesD. camellias66. The disease has caused. A. the larch plantations to disappear for everB. the climate to change a lotC. landowners to lose heavilyD. the government to pay large compensation67. From the passage we can learn. A. the disease is spreading quickly in BritainB. British experts have nothing to do about the diseaseC. garden shrubs are not affected by the disease at allD. the cure for the disease has been found(D)(原创)I was a late arrival to university. I didnt enroll until my 74th year, and wasnt to graduate until last week. At 78, I finished a BA in history at Birkbeck, University of London. I grew up in wartime Britain and my education was completely destroyed by the war. By the time I left school, aged 15, I had been to 11 different schools. There were sometimes 60 children in a class. If you were seen to be highly able, you sat at the front. Then there was the middle, then the back. I usually sat at the back. After the war, I worked as a black cab driver for 42 years, but always felt very conscious that I hadnt received an education. So I enrolled at Birkbeck, which specializes in evening classes. I soon realized that catching up on the education I had missed as a child wouldnt be easy. I didnt understand a word of my first lecture. With the support of my tutors, I began to study the subject. The tutors were able to guide me. When I had doubts three weeks into the course, my tutor told me, “You will get this BA, no matter what. Any problems, you come and see me. ”The other students also helped to carry me through. It hasnt been an easy journey, but I feel happy to have experienced student life. The day I found out Id passed my degree was full of emotion. You can never be sure that youre going to make itnot until youve made it through the last exam. Id planned to buy my cap and gown, so that when I go to New Zealand next year to visit my son I could wear them and have my photo taken with him. I nearly keeled over in shock when, three days before the graduation ceremony, I answered the front door to find my son standing there. He and his brother had secretly arranged for him to come over from New Zealand for the ceremony. The graduation ceremony last week was one of the proudest moments of my life. My wife, my two sons, my classmates and my tutors were all there to share the moment with me. When I heard my name read out and crossed the stage I
