    The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society—a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.
    “My grandmother didn’t do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.
    While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers (生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents’ way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.
    If you take into consideration feminism (女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable (必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple (紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.
    “The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn’t go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.
    “The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “We’re a ladies’ play group. It couldn’t be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.
    【小题1】. The unlined word “chapter” in Paragraph 2 means ___.

    A．one branch of an organizationB．a written agreement of a club
    C．one part of a collection of poemsD．a period in a society’s history
    【小题2】. From the text, we know that the “baby boomers” are a group of people who ___.
    A．have gradually become more noticeableB．are worried about getting old too quickly
    C．are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend
    D．tried living a different life from their parents when they were young
    【小题3】. It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are ___.
    A．interested in raising money for social workB．programmers who can plan well for their future
    C．believers in equality between men and womenD．good at cooking big meals and taking care of others
    【小题4】.. Who set up the Red Hat Society?
    A．Emily CornetteB．Ellen CooperC．Jenny JosephD．Joe Heywood
    【小题5】.. Women join the Red Hat Society because ___.
    A．they want to stay youngB．they would like to appear more attractive
    C．they would like to have fun and live for themselvesD．they want to be more like their parents

    For a small town, Mantattan, Kansas has some big surprises. And one of them is the Holiday Inn Hotel, with rooms built around a swimming pool and a friendly atmosphere.

    The Holiday Inn is where Manhattan people often go for a special party, or a night out. A lot of them choose to eat in the bright‑lit restaurant near the pool, And many of them will be served by Ellen Logan, who has worked as a waitress here for more than two years.

    Ellen, like most of the waitresses, is also a student. She comes from Nebraska, but she’s planning one day to be a veterinary surgeon, and to care for small animals. But in order to support herself at college, she works twenty hours a week at the Holiday Inn.

    Ellen soon learned what every waitress finds out. Your best friend has a good pair of shoes. She paid forty‑five dollars for hers, much more than she would usually spend. She’s discovered something else too. You don’t have to know much about food to be a good waitress, but you do have to know a lot about people.

    “A lot of business people always stay here when they come to Manhattan”, she explains. “They like you to recognize them and remember their favorite dishes. But some couples come for a night out together. They just want to be left alone. Then there are people who can’t make up their minds. They look down the menu and say,‘What do you suggest?’So I ask them how hungry they are. If they say,‘Not very.’I suggest the salad bar, with soup, salad, bread, and a fruit plate. But if they say they’re very hungry, I suggest a Kansas Strip Steak, with potatoes or rice. You get salad and bread as well. It’s very nice. Real good value”.

    Ellen may get tired sometimes, but at least she’s learning too much about people. She’s learning too much about people. She’ll probably make a good animal doctor, but if she finds she doesn’t like it after all, she can become a psychiatrist(心理医生)instead.

    1.What does the underlined phrase “a veterinary surgeon” mean?

    A、An animal doctor    B、A hotel manager    C、A food expert    D、A restaurant waitress

    2.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

    A、Businessmen like to be suggested what to eat.

    B、Many couples often want you to recognize them.

    C、Why people like to eat in the hotel is that it is full of a friendly atmosphere.

    D、If you know a lot about people,you’ll be a good veterinary surgeon.

    3.From the passage we can infer that       .

    A、waitresses in the Holiday Inn are all students.

    B、waitresses are required to buy a good pair of shoes before they go to work.

    C、waitresses should be familiar with the food there.

    D、it is more important for the waitresses to know much about people than food.

    4.Choose the best title for the passage.

    A、How to Deal with People        B、A Special Holiday Inn Hotel in Manhattan

    C、American Holiday Inn          D、Ellen Logan at the Holiday Inn
