There was a time when,if a lady got into a crowded bus or train,a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer his seat.But now,things are different.Today a gentleman will probably look out of the window or if he feels a bit shy,hide behind his newspaper.Either way,the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.
You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners,though.Gone are the days when women could be referred to as weakers without causing trouble.A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men,not just equality in jobs or education,but in social life.Hold a door open for some women and you are likely to get an angry lecture on treating women as weakers unable to open doors for themselves.Take a girl out for meal and she’ll probably insist on paying her share of the bill.On second thoughts,that is perhaps not a bad idea.
It’s no wonder,then that men have given up some ways of politeness and consideration which they used to show towards women.On the other hand,the man’s active politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs and feelings of women,so that men can see women as equal human beings,rather than as weakers or something that can be used to please men.
Maybe it is worth women’s while to stand in the bus or train.
46.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Gentlemen are considered impolite nowadays if they do not offer their seats to a standing woman.
B.A gentleman who doesn’t give his seat to a standing woman should be blamed.
C.Today women do not enjoy the politeness shown actively to her by man but they considered it pleasant in the past.
D.In order to be equal with men,women have to stand in a bus or train.
47.A woman may get angry if a man holds a door open for her because________.
A.she doesn’t like him to wait on her hand and foot
B.women enjoy opening the door themselves
C.she feels herself treated as a weaker
D.she thinks it impolite for a man to do so
48.If a man takes a girl out for a meal,she insists on paying her share of the bill.That means________.
A.she wants to be equal with him
B.she likes him,so she doesn’t want to use his money
C.it’s impolite to have a free meal
D.she has agreed to marry him
49.What do women really need today?
A.Men’s active politeness and consideration.
B.Men’s true consideration for the needs and feelings of women.
C.Trying to win men’s favour.
D.Men’s good manners such as offering their seats and opening the door,etc.
50.The writer most probably is________.
A.a man who thinks the changes are reasonable
B.a woman who wants equality
C.a man who doesn’t agree with the changes today
D.a woman who doesn’t agree with the changes today

We would probably all be amazed if we watched a videotape of ourselves performing basically unconscious acts as we go about the business of the day. These unconscious acts consist of all the little personal habits that we don’t even think about, but definitely should. These are some of the things that present an image of who we are to others, and if we are careless in performing them, this image may well be other than we would like it to be.
Parents who insist that their children practice good manners and habits at home are doing them a great service, for these habits then become lifelong and the natural way they do things. It proves true that their unconscious actions will reflect a well-mannered person.
People who, for example, eat with both arms on the table at home will likely do so when out. Those who are lazy and slow in private will certainly be so in public. Children who are permitted to be disrespectful to their parents will follow suit with other adults, and will, most likely, become adults who are disrespectful of others. This is an area where the saying “practice makes perfect” may be applied.
There is an article about the actress, Audrey Hepburn, known for her beautiful carriage and posture. According to her biographer, her grandmother tied her neck to the back of her chair, at table, so that she would not drop down suddenly over her food, but rather would learn to put only small amounts of food on her spoon or fork and bring them to her mouth. This is a rather extreme “at home” method for the development of erect (直立的) posture, but it does illustrate the effectiveness of practicing good habits so that, when in public, they are instinctive.

Afraid that her son would be too tired, Ms. Wendy would sometimes tell the boy to skip school, but each time, Fabian would insist on going to school.
“I don’t like it because when I return to school, I don’t know what’s going on,” the 12-year-old boy explained. He suffers for SMA-a neuromuscular(神经肌肉的)disease that leads to weakness in muscles-and gets around in a wheelchair.
Fabian’s determination to excel in his studies was evident when he was disappointed that he got a total score of 236 yesterday in his Primary School Leaving Examination. He was hoping for a score of at least 240, but his mother was full of pride. “I am happy with his results. He’s very motivated,” said Ms. Wendy.
When Fabian was two months old, he was diagnosed with SMA. Ms. Wendy, who used to go to other homes to teach piano lessons, started teaching lessons at home so she could take care of her son. Fabian proved to be a fighter. Ms. Wendy said, “ He would study every day on his own even though he was weak and his spine(脊柱)was already starting to curve quite badly.”
Fabian is also active in the Singapore Disability Sports Council, where he plays boccia(滚球), a ball sport for those who require a wheelchair due to physical disability.
At just 133cm tall and weighing 14kg, he knows that he will have to rely on others all his life. “I’m afraid that when my parents grow older, they will not be able to carry me and that there will be nobody to carry me,” said Fabian. “But for now, I feel lucky that I get to go out and do a lot of things that I thought I couldn’t.”
His dreams aren’t lofty(崇高的)either-all he want to be able to do is work and provide for his parents. “I just want to study hard so that I can be a businessman, like my dad.” He is planning to apply to study at Victoria School.
【小题1】The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.
A. going to school. B. being absent from school
C. studying hard. D. suffering from SMA.
【小题2】We can know from the text that Fabian ______.
A.got the disease at the age of 12. |
B.was proud of his exam results. |
C.has no interest in any sports. |
D.wants to be a businessman like his father. |
A.She insists that her son go to school. |
B.She used to be a piano teacher in a school. |
C.She is satisfied with her son’s performance at school. |
D.She fears that her son will be helpless when she is older. |
