【题目】One evening last summer, when I asked my 14-year-old son, Ray, for help with dinner, his response shocked me. "What’s a colander(漏勺)? " he asked.

I could only blame myself. In the family, nobody else’s hands went in the sauce except my own. But that night, as I explained with a touch of panic that a colander is the thing with holes in it, I wondered what else I hadn’t prepared Ray for.

As parents, while we focus on our sons’ confidence and character, we perhaps don’t always consider that we are also raising someone’s future roommates, boyfriends, husbands, or fathers. I wanted to know that I’d raised a boy who would never ask the woman in his life, "What’s for dinner?" So I came up with a plan: I would offer Ray a private home economics course. I was delighted to find that he didn’t say no. For two hours, three days a week, Ray was all mine. One day, as his tomato sauce reduced on the stove, he washed and seasoned a chicken for roasting. Then he rolled out the piecrust (馅饼皮) and filled it with apples, all while listening to my explanation on the importance of preheating an oven.

I knew that he would rather have been shooting hoops in the driveway than learning to mend socks with his mother—he tried to beg off sewing lessons, even though I insisted that one day, someone would find the sight of him fixing his own shirt very attractive— but it couldn’t be denied that he was learning, and more than just housekeeping. "I appreciate what you do as a mom," he told me one day. Ray now understands the finer points of cooking, and more importantly, he realizes there’s nothing masculine (男子气概的) about being helpless.

Now, not only can he make his own dinner, but also he can make a big meal for his family. That’s what I call a man. I’m glad that I prepared so great a present for my future daughter-in-law.

【1】Why was the author shocked at her son’s response?

A. Because he was not well behaved.

B. Because he refused to help with dinner.

C. Because he didn’t know the common kitchen tools.

D. Because he was very curious about kitchen tools.

【2】In the author’s opinion, some parents pay little attention to _______.

A. building up children’s confidence

B. telling kids what is right and wrong

C. preparing children for their future life

D. making children live a hard life

【3】 After learning to do housework, Ray _______.

A. fell in love with sewing

B. did other work in the house

C. began to be more hardworking

D. acknowledged his mother’s efforts

【4】 We can infer from the text that Ray _______.

A. made great progress in cooking.

B. always thought housework interesting.

C. preferred sewing to cooking.

D. was unwilling to learn cooking at first.

【5】What would be the best title for the text?

A. Useful education for boys

B. The importance of housework

C. Boys should be involved in housework.

D. Cooking and sewing make boys masculine.

【题目】Some of the most painful moments I spend as a vet (兽医 ) are those spent with my customers assisting my animal patients from this world to the next. Making this final decision is not easy, and I have often felt powerless to comfort the sorrowful owners.

That was before I met Shane.

I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog named Belker who had developed a serious health problem. The dog's owner—Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane—were hoping for a miracle (奇迹). But I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia (安乐死) for the old dog in their home. As we made the arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the euthanasia. They felt Shane could learn something from the experience.

The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him.

Shane seemed so calm, patting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.

A few minutes later, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's death without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a little while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.

Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up: "I know why."

Shocked, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next astonished me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.

He said, "Everybody is born so they can learn how to live a good life: like loving everybody and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."

【1】 Shane's parents wanted Shane to witness the euthanasia mainly because ____.

A. they hoped he could gain something from it

B. they knew he hated to part with Belker

C. they wanted him to remember Belker forever

D. they intended him to learn to carry out euthanasia

【2】 What can we learn from the third paragraph?

A. Belker got sick mainly because of lack of care.

B. There was no hope for Belker to recover but to suffer.

C. Shane didn't feel sad about Belker's death.

D. Belker didn't want to live any longer because of the pain.

【3】 We can infer from the underlined sentence that____.

A. words failed the vet when he tried to comfort Belker's family

B. the vet was familiar with the feelings of Belker's family

C. the vet would rather not perform the euthanasia

D. the vet's throat was uncomfortable with Belker's family around

【4】What would the author say about Shane?

A. He knew little about animal lives.

B. He felt unexpected about Belker's death.

C. He had a unique opinion about life.

D. He was an outgoing and warm-hearted boy.

【题目】Sex prejudices are based on and justified by the ideology(意识形态) that biology is destiny. According to this ideology, basic biological and psychological differences exist between the sexes. These differences require each sex to play a separate role in social life. Women are the weaker sex both physically and emotionally. Thus, they are naturally suited, much more so than men, to the performance of domestic(家庭的) duties. A woman’s place, under normal circumstances, is within the protective environment of the home. Nature has determined that women play caretaker roles, such as wife and mother and homemaker. On the other hand, men are best suited to go out into the competitive world of work and politics, where serious responsibilities must be taken on. Men are to be the providers; women and children are “dependents”.

The ideology also holds that women who wish to work outside the household should naturally fill these jobs that are in line with the special capabilities of their sex. It is appropriate for women, not men, to be employed as nurses, social workers, elementary school teachers, house-hold helpers, clerks and secretaries. These positions are simply an extension of women’s domestic role. Informal distinctions between “women’s work” and “men’s work” in the labor force, according to the ideology, are simply a functional reflection of the basic differences between the sexes.

Finally, the ideology suggests that nature has worked her will in another significant way. For the human species to survive over time, its members must regularly reproduce. Thus, women must, whether at home or in the labor force, make the most of their physical appearances.

So goes the ideology. It is, of course, not true that basic biological and psychological differences between the sexes require each to play sex-defined roles in social life. There is enough evidence that sex roles vary from society to society, and those role differences that do exist are largely learned.

But to the degree people actually believe that biology is destiny and that nature intended for men and women to make different contributions to society, sex-defined roles will be seen as totally acceptable.

【1】According to the biology-is-destiny ideology, women_______.

A.cannot compete with men in any field

B.are suited more to domestic jobs than men

C.are sensitive enough to be a good caretaker

D.are too weak to do any agricultural work at all

【2】Those who have prejudices against women think that_______.

A.women shouldn’t go out for work

B.women should earn money to add the family income

C.women going out for work should only do “women’s work”

D.women should take jobs to drill the special capabilities of the sex

【3】The author thinks that the positions women hold outside_______.

A.are determined by what they are better suited to

B.grow out of their household responsibilities

C.represent their breakthrough of sex discrimination

D.are physically and emotionally suitable to them

【4】What does the underlined sentence imply?

A.Sex roles are socially determined

B.Sex roles are emotionally and physically determined

C.Sex roles are biologically and psychologically determined

D.Sex roles are determined by education people take
