第1题
For years, I’ve been fighting against what feels natural to me because I felt pressure
to it. When I used to get dressed to go out I would put on a T-shirt and sneakers and feel great, but when I would walk into a bar and every girl around me was in heels and a mini dress, I often felt like the odd girl out. Anytime I was “dressed down” I would be told that I’d look better if I had makeup on, or was asked, “Is that really what you’re wearing?” So I learned to qualify it. “Oh, I didn’t bring anything nicer with me.” "Sorry I’m not really dressed. I came straight from work." The truth is that I feel comfortable in jeans and I don’t like to change before I go out. There's nothing wrong with that. Then why did I feel like there was? Part of it has to do with clothing options marketed to women and girls. What was available “for just us girls”? Usually it’s pink, frilly, or feminine. But I never felt those things were made for me or appealed to me. I decided to stop letting it get to me. In the past when I would get dressed for a date, I would try on multiple outfits. The first was what I wanted to wear on my date. The second was what my friends would tell me to wear. As I stood in front of the mirror, I would feel the frustration well up. I never want a guy that would want me in heels all the time. So I’d take off the dress that I had on — the one I thought I should wear — and put on what I was actually most comfortable wearing. And you know what? As soon as I did, I realized how great I looked. Girls who look unapologetically themselves are the best type of girls.

(1)What message does the author mainly convey?

A. Girls should wear like girls in a bar or a party.

B. Jeans and sweaters will be the new fashion for girls.

C. Girls in any type of clothes with confidence are the best.

D. Wearing pink and frilly clothes is odd and out of fashion.

(2)How did the author feel when she walked into a bar dressed down?

A. She felt herself quite different from other girls in the bar.

B. She felt at ease when other girls commented on her dress style.

C. She felt proud for not wearing high-heels like other girls.

D. She felt there was always discrimination around in the bar.

(3)What did the author use to do for a date?

A. She used to put on what she liked quickly.

B. She used to buy some girls’ dress to put on.

C. She used to try on multiple outfits.

D. She used to dress what others suggest her dressing.

(4)The followings are what the author qualifies for her casual dressing style. EXCEPT .

A. I didn’t bring anything nicer with me.

B. I came straight from work.

C. Sorry, I’m not really dressed.

D. I prefer jeans and sneakers.

(5)Which of the following adjectives can best describe the author’s attitude towards clothes options marketed for girls?

A. Ironic.

B. Uninterested.

C. Approving.

D. Objective.

根据下面材料,回答 26~30 题: Pretty in pink: adult women do not remember being so obse

根据下面材料,回答 26~30 题:

Pretty in pink: adult women do not remember being so obsessed with the colour, yet it is pervasive in our young girls’ lives. It is not that pink intrinsically bad, but it is a tiny slice of the rainbow and, though it may celebrate girlhood in one way, it also repeatedly and firmly fused girls’ identity to appearance. Then it presents that connection, even among two-year-olds, between girls as not only innocent but as evidence of innocence. Looking around, despaired at the singular lack of imagination about girls’ lives and interests.

Girls' attraction to pink may seem unavoidable, somehow encoded in their DNA, but according to Jo Paoletti, an associate professor of American Studies, it's not. Children were not colour-coded at all until the early 20th century: in the era before domestic washing machines all babies wore white as a practical matter, since the only way of getting clothes clean was to boil them. What's more, both boys and girls wore what were thought of as gender-neutral dresses. When nursery colours were introduced, pink was actually considered the more masculine colour, a pastel version of red, which was associated with strength. Blue, with its intimations of the Virgin Mary, constancy and faithfulness, symbolised femininity. It was not until the mid-1980s, when amplifying age and sex differences became a dominant children's marketing strategy, that pink fully came into its own, when it began to seem innately attractive to girls, part of what defined them as female, at least for the first few critical years.

I had not realised how profoundly marketing trends dictated our perception of what is natural to kids, including our core beliefs about their psychological development. Take the toddler. I assumed that phase was something experts developed after years of research into children's behaviour: wrong. Turns out, according to Daniel Cook, a historian of childhood consumerism, it was popularised as a marketing gimmick by clothing manufacturers in the 1930s.

Trade publications counseled department stores that, in order to increase sales, they should create a "third stepping stone" between infant wear and older kids' clothes. It was only after "toddler" became common shoppers' term that it evolved into a broadly accepted developmental stage. Splitting kids, or adults, into ever-tinier categories has proved a sure-fire way to boost profits. And one of the easiest ways to segment a market is to magnify gender differences – or invent them where they did not previously exist.

第 26 题 By saying "it is ... The rainbow"(line 3, Para 1), the author means pink _______.

[A]should not be the sole representation of girlhood

[B]should not be associated with girls' innocence

[C] cannot explain girls' lack of imagination

[D]cannot influence girls' lives and interests

In the 1900's, American townspeople usually washed and brushed their teeth and combed thei
r hair in the kitchen. Or they kept a water pitcher (大水罐) and a wash basin in their rooms and took care of these things there.

The bathtub was a wash tub (澡盆) filled with water from the stove. If you were small enough you could sit down by drawing your knees to your chest, Otherwise, you washed yourself standing up. Often all the women and girls in the family bathed together. Then the men and boys did. In most families this was Saturday-night because Sundays they went to church.

A small number of families did have running water. But that depended on Whether there was a water system where they lived and on whether they could afford the plumbing (水管实施 ). Some people had bathtubs in their homes as early as 1895. But many others did not have their first bath in a bathtub until 1910 or later when they were fifteen or sixteen years old.

In the first paragraph, "took care of" means ______.

A.kept

B.looked after

C.used

D.kept and used

Inthefallof1924ThomasWolfe,freshfromhiscoursesinplaywritingatHarvardjoinedtheeightortenofu

In the fall of 1924 Thomas Wolfe, fresh from his courses in play writing at Harvard joined the eight or

ten of us who were teaching English composition in New York University. I had never before seen a man

so tall as he, and so ugly. I pitied him and went out of my way to help him with his work and make him

feel at home.

His students soon let me know that he had no need of my protectiveness. They spoke of his ability to

explain a poem in such a manner as to have them shouting with laughter or struggling to keep back

their tears, of his readiness to quote in detail from any poet they could name.

Indeed, his students made so much of his power of observation that I decided to make a little test and

see for myself. My chance came one morning when the students were slowly gathering for nine o‘clock

classes.

Upon arriving at the university that day, I found Wolfe alone in the large room which served all the

English composition teachers as an office. He did not say anything when I asked him to come

with me out into the hall, and he only smiled when we reached a classroom door and I told him

to enter alone and look around.

He stepped in, remained no more than thirty seconds and then came out. “Tell me what you see.”

I said as I took his place in the room, leaving him in the hall with his back to the door. Without the

least hesitation and without a single error, he gave the number of seats in the room, pointed out

those which were taken by boys and those occupied by girls, named the colors each student was

wearing, pointed out the Latin verb written on the blackboard, spoke of the chalk marks which the

cleaner had failed to wash from the floor, and pictured in detail the view of Washington Square from

the window.

As I rejoined Wolfe, I was speechless with surprise. He, on the contrary, was wholly calm as he

said, “The worst thing about it is that I‘ll remember it all.”

What is the passage mainly discussing?

A. Thomas Wolfe‘s teaching work.

B. Thomas Wolfe‘s course in playwriting.

C. Thomas Wolfe‘s ability of explaining.

D. Thomas Wolfe‘s genius.

Charlene, a 16-year-old student at a high school, found herself faced with a maths test to
which she knew none of the answers.Rather than fail, she took the test out with her and filled in the answer swith the help of her friends. During a break, shegot back into the classroom without being seen, crumpled the test with her shoe, and left it lying on the floor. The teacherthought it hadbeen drop pedwhen the testswere collected; shecorrected it, and Charlene received a B.

Cheating is, of course, nothing new. But today,educators are finding that cheating on the part of students hasbecome more frequent than in the past. Whether it is copying a friend&39;s homework, using a preparedsheeton an exam, stealing advance copies of a final, writing down rules in one’s hand, or paying someone else to write a term paper, cheating appearsto have gained acceptance among agrowing number of studentsbetween 13 and 19.

In a 1978 study of cheating at twenty-two high schools in Georgia, it was found that cheating was common among good and poor students alike — although both boys and girls said they thought boys cheatedmore.

They point to facts showing increaseddamageof public thin gs and school stealing and think that reports, such as Watergate have disappointed youth about the honesty of people in higher positions.

Others think that today&39;s youth are far more practical than their forefathers. In the late sixties and e arly seventies, students were filled with imaginations about changing the world, but today&39;s students feel great stressto succeed.

第9题
During the twentieth century there has been a great change in the lives of women. A woman
marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the Youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which chance and health made it unusual for them to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman' s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and she can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until sixty.

This important change in women' s life has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school and took a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life.

We are told that in a family about 1900 ______.

A.few children died before they were five

B.seven or eight children lived to be more than five

C.the youngest child would be fifteen

D.four or five children died when they were five
