She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself. “What I mean is, explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a “Of course I have a job, said Emily. “Im a mother.“We dont list mother as an occupation housewife covers it, said the recorder. One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation? she asked. The words simply popped out. “Im a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair. I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire. “Might I ask, said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesnt), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.There was an increasing note of respect in the clerks voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out. As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (受鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants-ages 13, 7, and 3. Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern. I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.MotherhoodWhat a glorious career! Especially when theres a title on the door. 41. What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?A. The recorder was impatient and rude. B.

Because the author cared little about rewards. B. Because she thought the author did admirable work.C. Because she admired the authors research work in the lab. D. Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of. 44. What is the authors purpose of writing the passage?A. To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it. B. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect. C. To show that the author had a greater job than Emily. D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not sure to what degree people's memories are affected.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions, said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “This could relieve a lot of that suffering.But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people's memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.49. The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. a new research on the pillC. a way of wiping out painful memoriesD. an argument about the research on the pill50. The drug tested on people can .A. cause the brain to fix memoriesB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effects of memories51. We can infer from the passage that .A. experts are not sure about the effects of the pillsB. the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memoriesC. taking the pill will do harm to people's physical healthD. the pill has already been produced and used by the American public 52. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with in the last paragraph?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories. D No satisfactory way exists to explain how to form a good idea. You think about a problem until you're tired, forget it, maybe sleep on it, and then flash! When you aren't thinking about it, suddenly the answer arrives as a gift from the gods. Of course, all ideas don't occur like that but so many do, particularly the most important ones. They burst into the mind, glowing with the heat of creation. How they do it is a mystery b
