Ⅱ   阅读(共两节，满分50分)

第一节：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Parents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do，and home has become much less of a workshop. Clothes can be bought ready made; washing can go to the laundry; food can be bought; cooked，canned or preserved; bread is baked and delivered by the baker; milk arrives on the doorstep; meats can be had at the restaurant，the work’s canteen，and the school dining-room.

It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home，and his children rarely，if ever，see him at his place of work. Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation，and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns good money，and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence. In textile areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work，but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a child’s home life，the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages accrue，but children lose something of great value if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school.

26. The writer mentions home as workshop because______.

A. fathers often pursue employment at home

B. parents had to make food and necessity themselves for their daily-life

28. The word“accrue”in the sentence“When mother...accrue，”is closest in meaning to

__________________.

A. change                            B. dwindle                    C. double                     D. increase

29. The chief reason that boys are seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation is ___________________.

A. that children nowadays rarely see their fathers at their place of work

B. that fathers do not like to pursue employment at home any more

C. that there is a wide choice of employment for children

D. that children also like to have jobs outside

30. What makes father no longer the only dominant person in a family?

A. With their earning，mother and children do not need to depend on father for their life.

B. There are many choice of employment for mothers and children.

C. Father does much less for his children today than he used to.
