Read the passage below, and choose the only one right answer from the four choices given. (20%)Passage 1During the twentieth century there has been a great change in the lives of women. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth 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 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 fortyfive and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until sixty.This important change in women's life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school and 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 marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is bom. Very many more afterwards return to full-or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life.1. We are told that in a family about 1900.A. seven or eight children lived to be more than tenB. few children died before they were fiveC. the youngest child would be fifteenD. four or five children died when they were fiveOne reason why the woman of today may take a job is that she.A. is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselvesB. does not like children herselfC. needn't worry about food for her childrenD. can be free from family duties when she reaches sixtyMany girls are now likely to.A. quit their jobs for good after they are marriedB. leave school as soon as they canC. be married so that they can get a jobD. continue working until they are going to have a babyAccording to the passage, it is now quite usual for women toA. stay at home after leaving schoolB. marry men younger than themselvesC. start working again later in lifeD. marry while still at schoolNow a husband probablyA. plays a greater role in looking after their childrenB. helps his wife by doing most of the houseworkC. feels dissatisfied with his role in the familyD. takes a part-time job so that he can help in the homePassage 2It's interesting that the arrival of snow has the effect on people in different countries. For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a catastrophe （灾害）or even a wonder.But there are countries between these two kinds that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply creates problems. Within hours of the first snowfalls, however light, roads are blocked; trains and buses have to stop in the middle of the way. Normal communications are affected as well: telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. And almost within hours there are alsocertain shortages-bread, vegetables and other things-not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go tout and store up with food and so on一"just for fear that something bad should happen”.But why does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, the Austrians and the Canadians don't have such problems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow-ploughs(扫雪机)and to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow-ploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education, helping the old, and so on.1. According to the writer, Britain is a country.A. which has regular snowB. which is not well prepared for snowfor which snow is a catastrophe D. for which snow is a wonder2. The arrival of snow in Britain affects all of the following exceptA. food suppliesB. communicationsC. trafficD. service qualityAfter a few hours' snowing there are often some shortages of food becauseA. shops have closedownB. people buy as muchas theycanC. farmers can produce no more D. people eat more vegetablesin winterThe first reason that the British do not buy snow-ploughs is that.A. spreading salt is good enough B. old people need more moneyC. snow-ploughs are not used often D. the hospital is more importantThe words “two kinds“ in Line4 mean the countries.A. which have snow either as yearly happening to celebrate or as rare weatherB. which either have heavy snow or light snowC. to which snow either causes problems or no problemsD. which either have snow-ploughs or no snow-ploughsV.
