    Many would consider it crazy, but what has caused the sudden popularity of the DINK (double income,no kid) lifestyle? Mr. Buchanan lists three factors that lead to the DINK lifestyle and help explain why today’s culture mocks the old idea that “the good tile for a woman means a husband and a houseful of kids.”

    The first factor is what is generally called“the greatest movement of the 20th century”.The movement of women from their homes to offices,which is similar to the 19th century migration (迁移)of men from the farm to the factory.

    The second factor is some women begin choosing to follow a career(职业) rather than raise a family.Modern industries offer well-paid jobs to able women,who can compete successfully with men. With more women working,families become wealthier and smaller.

    The third factor is the end of the“family wage”. Before 1964,employers paid a man a “family wage” enough to support a wife and family However, as women’s pay has greatly increased.men’s pay has dropped,and the traditional marriage and family have suffered Young women are now more likely to be financially(经济上)independent and more likely to delay their marriage,or just not marry at all Some choose to be DINKs.

   Though not necessarily the best,to be a DINK has become an increasingly popular lifestyle choice,one that has gained more and more recognition in our society.

 

57.The writer probably thinks the DINK lifestyle       

  A.perfect    B.acceptable    C.unreasonable    D.Crazy

58.According to Mr. Buchanan,         

  A.many men left the farm to work in the factory in the 19th century

  B.most women are less likely to get married and act as housewives

  C.modern industries now prefer talented women rather than men

  D.able women prefer to raise a family rather than follow a career

59.The underlined word“mocks” in the second paragraph most probably means       

  A.praises    B.follows    C.laughs at  D.learns from

60.The best title of the passage can be       

  A.DINK Lifestyle

  B.Follow a Career and Be a DINK

  C.Why Be a DINK

  D.Greatest Movement of 20th Century

Of the six-billion-plus people in the world,600 million live on islands.In other words,one in ten of the world’s population is an island dweller.This is not so hard to imagine when you consider that more than 200 million people live in Indonesia alone―and about 60 million more live on the island of Britain.

No island,or group of islands,is the same.Indonesia,for example,is a nation which consists entirely of islands,nearly 14,000 of them,of which 6,000 are inhabited.Britain is a small, crowded island,with a population density of 243 people per square kilometer,almost twice as much as China.Britain is also the only island in the world which is connected to a continent by a tunnel,the Channel Tunnel between southeast England and North France.

If you ignore Australia,which is an island-continent,the largest island in the world is Greenland,an unusual name for a place which is almost permanently covered in ice! On the other hand,Iceland,which is Greenland’s relatively near neighbor to the east,is much greener.

Why is this?Iceland is far enough north,like Greenland,to be entirely covered by ice,but more than one third of Iceland is volcanically active.Magma,which is molten volcanic rock below the surface of the ground,heats the terrain above it,keeping it green.The story goes that an early settler from Iceland gave Greenland its name in order to encourage more people to live there!

Even the smallest islands have a story to tell.The remotest inhabited island in the world is Tristan da Cunha,which is in the South Atlantic Ocean.Fewer than 250 people live there and they are all related to each other,with only seven surnames between them.The island capital has the romantic name of Edinburgh of the South Seas.

 

56.According to the text,islands contain     

A.one in ten of the world’s population

B.more than six billion people

C.a total of 200,000,000 people

D.much less than 10 percent of the world’s population

57.What does the text tell us by the expression“population density”in the second paragraph?

A.Britain is half as crowded as China.

B.China’s population is around 485 people per square kilometer in the country as a whole.

C.The population per square kilometer is much greater in Britain than in China because of the size of the IK.

D.Britain is twice as populated as China.

58.Where is Edinburgh of the South Seas?

A.On the smallest island in the South Atlantic Ocean.

B.On a romantic,uninhabited island.

C.On a distant,small island inhabited by few people.

D.On a Scottish island in the South Seas.

59.What is the topic of the text?

A.Indonesia Islands                                        B.Islands in the South Pacific.

C.Islands around the world.                          D.Ialand dwellers.
