    根据下面资料,回答
    For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury; they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the choice has to do with economics. One husband said, "Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance. We couldn′t afford it." With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less.
    Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings.
    There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction.
    From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to work is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn′t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl′s eyes.
    What are the two major considerations in deciding whether women should out to work?

    A.The economic factor and their social status in their life.
    B.The social status and the family role they play in the family.
    C.The economic factor and the emotional needs of family members.
    D.The social status and the requirements of the society.

    答案:C
    解析:
    细节题。由第二段可知,经济是第一原因,但最重要的因素是家庭成员的情感需求。

  • 第5题:

    Text 2 Far from joining the labour force,women have been falling away at an alarming pace.The female employment rate in India,counting both the formal and informal economy,has tumbled from an already-low 35%in 2005 to just 26%now.Yet nearly 1Om fewer women are in jobs.A rise in female employment rates to the male level would provide India with an extra 235m workers,more than the EU has of either gender,and more than enough to fill all the factories in the rest ofAsia.Imagine the repercussions.Were India to rebalance its workforce in this way,the IMF estimates,the world's biggest democracy would be 27%richer.Its people would be well on their way to middle-income status.Beyond the obvious economic benelits are the incalculable human ones.Women who work are likelier to invest more in their children's upbringing,and to have more say over how they lead their lives.Social mores are startlingly conservative.A girl's first task is to persuade her own family that she should have a job.The in-laws she will typically move in with after marriage are even more likely to yank her out of the workforce and into social isolation.In a survey in 2012,84%of Indians agreed that men have more right to work than women when jobs are scarce.Men have taken 90%of the 36m additional jobs in industry India has created since 2005.And those who say that women themselves prefer not to work must contend with plenty of counter-evidence.Census data suggest that a third of stay-at-home women would WOfk ifjobs were available;govemment make-work schemes attract more women than men.What can be done?Many of the standard answers fall short.Promoting education,a time-tested development strategy,may not succeed.Figures show that the more schooling an Indian woman receives,the less likely she is to work,at least if she has anything less than a university degree.Likewise urbanization,another familiar way to alleviate poverty:city-dwelling women are half as likely as rural ones to have a job.An optimist might argue that more women are not working because India is still paying for the sins of the past,when so many of them were illiterate and high fertility rates bound them to the home.Most measures of female welfare are improving.India has many more girls in classrooms and fewer child brides than it once did.In fact,many fear that all that extra schooling was a parental ploy to improve a daughter's prospects not in the labour market but in the arranged-marriage market,part of the all-important quest to snag a suitable boy.A further push is needed to get Indian women what they really need:a suitable job.Better education may not function because_____

    A.higher educated women are reluctant to work
    B.higher education is not equal to higher possibility of work
    C.women living in rural are less likely to join work
    D.higher education failed to stand the test oftime

    答案:B
    解析:
    事实细节题。根据定位词定位到文章第四段。原文指出,促进教育——一个经过时间考验的发展战略,可能不会成功。数据显示,印度女性接受的教育程度越高,就越不可能去工作,至少如果她的学历低于大学学历的话,B项为其同义替换表达,故B项为正确选项。【干扰排除】原文并未提及愿不愿意工作,故A项排除;原文指出,居住在城市的女性找到工作的可能性只有农村女性的一半.C项错误;D项属于无中生有。

    New Changes in American Life
    Once it was possible to define male and female roles easily by the division of labor. Men
    worked outside the home and earned the income to support their families,while women cooked the
    meals and took care of the home and the children._______(46)But by the middle of this century,men's and women's roles were becoming less firmly fixed.
    In the 1950s,economic and social success was the goal of the typical American. But in the
    1960 s a new force developed called the counterculture._______(47)The counterculture presented men and women with new role choices. Taking more interest in childcare,men began to share
    child-raising tasks with their wives. In fact,some young men and women moved to communal
    homes or farms where the economic and childcare responsibilities were shared equally by both sexes._______(48)Some young men refused to be drafted as soldiers to fight in the war in Viet-nam。
    In terms of numbers,the counterculture was not a very large group of people._______(49)
    Working men of all classes began to change their economic and social patterns.Industrial workers and business executives alike cut down on“overtime”work so that they could spend more leisure time with their families .Some doctors,lawyers,and teachers turned away from high paying situations to practice their professions in poorer neighborhoods.
    In the 1970s,the feminist movement,or women's liberation,produced additional economic and social changes.Women of all ages and at all levels of society were entering the work force in greater numbers._______(50)But some women began to enter traditionally male occupations: police work,banking,dentistry,and construction work.Women were asking for equal work,and equal opportunities for promotion.
    Today the experts generally agree that important changes are taking place in the roles of men and women .Naturally,there are difficulties in adjusting to these transformations.

    _______(49)
    A: In addition,many Americans did not value the traditional male role of soldier.
    B:Most of them still took traditional women's jobs as public school teaching,nursing,and secretarial work.
    C: These roles were firmly fixed for most people,and there was not much opportunity for women to exchange their roles.
    D: But its influence spread to many parts of American society.
    E: The people involved in this movement did not value the middle-class American goals.
    F: A great many jobs that used to belong to men are now taken by women.

    答案:D
    解析:
    空格46后面的句子中出现了一个比较级“less firmly”,这说明空格中也应有这样一个副词。从句意上看,空格后面的句子以转折词but引导,说明该句与空格中的句子成转折关系。综合考虑,本题选C。


    空格47所在段落主要是在谈论20世纪50年代的“反文化”运动给传统意义下的美国男女作用对比带来的影响。选项中只有E项出现了“the movement”这个词组,所以大致圈定选项E。从上下文来看,选项E实际上是该段中所谈到的变化的总括,故选E。


    空格48后面的句子是在讲许多年轻人不愿服兵役参加越战,该句与段落中其他句子没有直接联系,这说明空格中的句子应该是承上启下的连接句。选项A中出现in addition连接上文,male role of soldier照应下文,这表明A项是合适的选项。


    空格所在的段落继续谈论“反文化”运动对美国社会的影响,但从上下文来看,该段已不仅仅在说对男女角色关系的影响,所以与上段之间缺少一个连接句来照应。选项 D的意思是“它影响到美国社会的很多方面”,符合题意,故选D。


    本段主要是说美国女权运动所带来的影响,妇女们大量加入劳动力大军。空格50 后面的句子以but引导,这说明两句话之间是对比关系。后者是说明妇女从事了一些以前本属于男人的工作,那么空格所在的句子也就应该是说妇女从事一些传统的工作,这就是选项B的意思,故选B。

  • 第16题:

    根据下面资料,回答题
    Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer′s background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook.
    Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people′s impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person′s education, background, or interests.
    People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits, including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or drink_ Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
    In the workplace, men have long had well-defined precedents and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine" and "feminine" attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming--shorter hair, moderate use of make-up, and plain tailored clothing. As one male administrator confessed, "An attractive woman is definitely going to get a longer interview, but she won′t get a job."

    The clothes a person wears may convey all of the following information EXCEPT ___________.查看材料

    A.the wearer' s temperament
    B.the wearer' s social status
    C.the wearer' s home address
    D.the wearer' s mood

    答案:C
    解析:
    细节题。根据第一段的第二句话“They tell us a good deal about the wearer’s background,personality,status,mood,and social outlook."可知,一个人的衣着可以体现他的背景、性格、地位、心情和社会观。A、B、D项均包括在内,C项不能体现,故选C。

  • 第17题:

    资料:In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the battle of the sexes.
    If the process goes too far and man's role is regarded as less important- and that has happened in some cases-we are as badly of as before, only in reverse. It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of momism,-but we don't want to exchange it for neo-popism. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals.
    There are signs that psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit-nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze men's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.
    The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.
    Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is connected not only with a healthy democracy, but also with a healthy family.

    From the passage we know that the author is very concerned with the role that______.

    A.men play in a family
    B.women play in a family
    C.parents play in bringing up their children
    D.equality plays in a family

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】the author; concerned with the role
    【主题句】第3自然段There are signs that psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit-nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze men's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. 有迹象表明,心理学家、社会工作者和家庭问题专家越来越意识到男性在家庭中扮演的角色,他们认为女性不应受到所有的赞扬和责备。我们几乎已经放弃了女人的位置就是家的说法。然而,我们开始分析男人在家庭中的地位,并坚持认为男人在家庭中占有一席之地。
    【解析】本题的问题是“从文章中我们知道作者非常关心____”。 A选项“男性在家庭中扮演的角色”;B选项“女性在家庭中扮演的角色”;C选项“父母在抚养孩子中扮演的角色”;D选项“平等在家庭中扮演的角色”。根据主题句可知,作者非常关心的是男性在家庭中扮演的角色,故选A。

    录音首句便指出“目前为止,美国国土安全部(the U.S. Department of Homeland Security)已经拨给美国各州超过400万美元以对video security systems(视频安全系统)进行投资”,因此选项B为正确答案。
    【录音原文】
    So far, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has given American states more than $40 million to invest in video security systems. But in March, the Washington metropolitan police department admitted that the dozens of cameras it has had in place since 9/11 have so far netted zero arrests. What the surveillance cameras can do is help investigators piece together the details of plots after they are attempted, gather forensic evidence and identify suspects—all of which deepens their understanding of how terrorist networks operate.
