Once in a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay – at – home athers. I made the point that one reason why we’re seeing more stay – at – homw dads may be hat it’s no longer definite that a man makes more money than his wife. Many families now ake earning power into account when deciding which parent will stay home.

At that point, one of the male crew members pointed out, almost to himself but loud nough for my benefit, “It should be the better parent who stays home.” A lot of guys say hings like that. Usually it’s a code for “My wife, or any woman is the better parent.”

I was a stay – at – home father for 8 years, so his words made me excited. It implied that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a “better” parent than my wife.

I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better” parent if she spent more time with Jack. She would be able to read him wetter and calm him more quickly. But as the more employable one, my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.

because of the increased time I spent with Jack. I soon knew him well, understood that he needed and could look after him more or less as well as my wife could. Actually, he experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets; Women are good at booking after children because they do it. It is not because of any innate (先天的) female talent. It is because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.

Jean's father was a farm plane pilot in the little farming community in Northern California where she was raised, and _36_Jean was totallyattracted by airplanes and flying.
In her senior year of high school, her English teacher was Mrs. Dorothy Slaton. Mrs. Slaton was a _37_, demanding teacher with high standards and a low _38_ for excuses. She refused to treat her students like _39_, instead expecting them to behave like the _40_ adults they would have to be to succeed in the real world after graduation. Jean was _41_ of her at first but grew to respect her firmness and fairness gradually.
One day Mrs. Slaton gave the class a written _42_. "What do you think you’ll be doing 10 years from now?” Jean’s dream was to be a pilot like her father, but as the years went by, she had been beaten down by the _43_ and negative words she got whenever she talked about her career, so she unwillingly gave it up and wrote something else. Mrs. Slaton collected the papers and nothing more was said. Two weekslater, the teacher handed back the assignments, _44_ the students to face it down on the desk, and asked this question: "If you had enough finances and unlimited _45_, what would you do? Please write it on the _46_ of your previous assignment paper.”
When the students stopped writing, the teacher asked, "How many of you wrote the same thing on _47_ sides of the paper?" Not one hand went up.
The next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean’s life. The teacher leaned forward _48_ her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you all. You do have _49_ abilities and talents. You do have access to the finest schools, and you can arrange plenty of finances if you want something _50_ enough. This is it! When you leave school, _51_ you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have _52_ you want if you want it enough.”
What her teacher said touched Jean so much! In the following years, she tried her best to realize her dream of becoming a pilot. Although it didn’t happen _53_, she finally became one of the first three female pilot trainees ever _54_ by United Airlines. Today, Jean Harper is a Boeing 737 captain.
It was the power of one well-placed _55_ word that gave that uncertain young girl the strength and faith to pursue her dream.

Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活) if the rain is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.     
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks.  The faces of the desert mountains are always changing--very, very slowly--as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.
【小题1】Many plants may survive in deserts when_______.

A.the rain falls only in a few weeks

【小题2】Sand dunes are formed when_______.
A.there is plenty of rain in a year
B.sand piles up gradually
C.the sea has dried up over the years
D.pieces of rock get smaller
【小题3】The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably  means that in a desert there is_______.
A.too much sandB.more sand than before
C.nothing except sandD.something else besides sand
【小题4】It can be learned from the text that in a desert_______.
A.there is no rainfall throughout the year
B.life exists in rough conditions
C.all sand dunes are a few feet high
D.rocks are worn away only by wind and heat
【小题5】What’ the best title of this passage?
