It’s official. Denmark---as well as being the world’s best country to live in for women with the second-happiest people and one of the best healthcare systems in Europe---has the most contented babies. Or, at least, the ones who cry the least. According to research published in the Journal of Pediatrics, Danish, German and Japanese babies cry the least, while British, Canadian and Italian babies cry the most.
“I’m not surprised,” Danish parenting expert and co-author of The Danish Way of Parenting Jessica Alexander tells me. “The first year of a child’s life is considered so important in Denmark. Danish parents are much less stressed because they get good maternity and paternity leave (孕产假). The atmosphere is much calmer and, if mothers are getting more time off, that goes hand in hand with less stress, more contact, more routines and less crying.” She pauses before throwing in a final tip: “Oh, and Danish babies sleep outdoors a lot.”
In Denmark, a woman is given four weeks pregnancy leave followed by 52 weeks of paid leave that can be shared between parents. And Alexander thinks there is another important reason why Danish babies cry less: breastfeeding. “It’s just the done thing in Denmark,” she says of a country that has the world’s highest breastfeeding rates. “In other countries, there are continual discussions about whether you should or shouldn’t breastfeed. In Denmark, breastfeeding has never gone out of style. And everyone does it for a year.”
For Iben Sandahl, Alexander’s co-author, it comes down to the Danish attitude to life in general. “We are an honest and pure people,” she tells me. “We are surrounded by social support and are less likely to become angry, sad or annoyed when our babies are crying. And we are good at embracing (拥抱) all kinds of feelings, so we aren’t scared. Instead, we try to connect with the babies when they cry. It’s how babies communicate and it’s about trying to understand it.”
1.Which of the following can make a baby cry less?
A. An effective healthcare system.
B. More company from a parent.
C. An energetic busy mother.
D. More chances to meet fellow babies.
2.It can be learned from the text that ________.
A. something in the milk from breastfeeding can keep babies happy.
B. Demark is second to none in protecting its females’ rights.
C. Danish parents’ attitudes to a baby’s first year vary considerably
D. breastfeeding is a common and accepted practice in Denmark
3.When babies cry, Danish parents will probably ________.
A. try to figure out what they want
B. put them outdoors for a good sleep
C. seek social support for guidance
D. wait a moment for them to calm down

Jennifer Lawrence, 25, is known for being down -to- earth and likable—she ordered McDonald’s on the red carpet at the Oscars.
And when she described her anger and disappointment at the fact that women are not equal to men in Hollywood, Lawrence “continued to make America fall in love with her”, said Business Insider.
Earlier this year, an E-mail from film company Sony Pictures showed that Lawrence and Amy Adams made less money for American Hustle(2013) than their male(男性) co-stars, even though both women played major roles in the movie.
In an article published in Lenny Letter, a popular e-mail newsletter, Lawrence wrote “I’m trying to find the ‘adorable(可爱的) way to state my opinion and still be likable’!”
Lawrence joins a long list of actresses, including Meryl Streep and Cate Blanchett, who have spoken up about Hollywood’s pay gap.
According to Forbes, the 10 highest paid movie actors in 2015, led by Robert Downey Jr, made ＄431 million.But the 10 highest paid movie actresses, led by Lawrence, only made about $218 million. The pay gap comes partly from the low number of actresses. According to a report in August, only 28.1 percent of characters in 2014’s 100 top grossing(高票房的) films were female(女性) and of them, only 21 percent had a female lead or co-lead character.
“People with more experience are paid more,” Nancy Dubue, the president CEO of A+E Networks, told Variety, “The problem is that the industry still gives too many men that experience.”
The pay gap is a problem that affects the whole US, The White House reported that women earn 78 cents to every dollar a man gets there.
“This is what made Lawrence’s piece powerful: it showed that women still experience pay inequality everywhere-whether you’re Hollywood’s top talent or you work in a retail store,” commented CNN.
As Lawrence points out, it’s not just about less payment for women; it’s also about women making sure that their pay shows their value.
1.According to Business Insider, Americans_____ Lawrence after she expressed her anger at Hollywood’s pay gap.
A. dislike. B. like
C. doubt D. forgive
2.From the passage we can infer that_____.
A. men earn more money for the same job than women because they are better than women
B. Lawrence is the leader of the 10 highest_ paid movie actresses
C. a great many actresses have spoken up about Hollywood’s pay gap
D. a White House report points out that men make twice as much money as women
3.The writer’s purpose of writing this passage is____.
A. to inform
B. to advise
C. to persuade
D. to argue
4.The best title of the passage can be____.
