Som
17、e people think this is the main reason women are so underrepresented in politics, trade unions and big businesses. Others feel it is simply that they are much too busy doing other things. The old saying “a woman“s place is in home“ may seem out of date to most people, but the old, fixed image of a w
18、oman as a supporting wife and caring mother is certainly still usualone only has to watch a few television ads. In 1975 the law did not allow women to be paid less than men doing the same work. Certainly it is usually the case nowadays that women doing the same jobs as men get the same money, but ge
19、nerally women do not do the same job: they do different ones that offer lower salaries. The areas women work in are almost all those of “service“: teaching, nursing, catering and cleaning, jobs that can be seen as an extension of the mothering role. Apart from looking “after people during the day at
20、 work, women often have to take care of family at home too, which may mean they have less energy to complete in the race for professional development. In almost every field, top positions are more likely to be filled by men. While most teachers are women, for example, most headmasters are not. Schoo

25、 happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it“s pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Pa
26、lm Beach Gardens. It“s a library built with love. A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely availa
27、ble, she announced to her family of four, “That“s what we“re going to do for our spring break!“ Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn“t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply co
28、mpany modified a small wooden house that he“d built years earlier for daughter Abbie“s toy horses, and made a door of glass. After adding the library“s final touches (装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,“ and making the Henriksen library, n
29、ow one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County. They stocked it with 20 or so books they“d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids“ favorites, “I told them, keep in mind that you
30、 might not see it again,“ said Janey, a stay-at-home morn. Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day. The project“s best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had
31、no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.“（分数：10.00）(1).In what way is the library “pedestrian-friendly“?（分数：2.00）A.It owns a yellow roof.B.It stands near a sidewalk.C.It protects book lovers from the sun.D.It uses palm-tree stickers as decorations.(2).Janey got the idea to build a libra
32、ry from _.（分数：2.00）A.a visit to Brian WilliamsB.a spring break with her familyC.a book sent by one of her neighborsD.a report on a Wisconsin-based organization(3).The library was built _.（分数：2.00）A.by a ship supply companyB.on the basis of toy horsesC.like a mailboxD.with glass(4).What can we infer

Working people spend money on transportation to and from work and on various expenses throughout
35、 the day. Americans enjoy shopping and buy many things that they need and want. They spend a lot of money on entertainment. They buy sports equipment to do sporting events and do many things that cost money. However, many Americans don“t pay cash or write cheeks for these things. More and more, they
36、 pay for things with credit cards. Credit cards are small, rectangular plastic cards. Banks give these cards to their customers. When the customer buys something at a store, he shows his card at the store. This authorizes(委托) the store to charge the bank account for the customer“s purchase. The bank
37、 collects all the charges for each customer. Then once a month the bank requires the customer to pay all the charges for that month. The bank does not force the customer to pay the full amount. It asks the customer to pay for charges in several payments over a period of time. However, the bank requi
38、res the customer to pay interest on the unpaid of the charges. In this way the bank allows customers to buy things they cannot afford at one time. People can use the card to buy what they want and pay for it over a period of time. They also do not need to carry a lot of money.（分数：10.00）(1).How do Am

Are you
43、lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone. The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It sense
44、s how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection. The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don“t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you“re brushing long enough. “It“s kind of like having a dentist actually w
45、atch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,“ says Thomas Serval, the French inventor. The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your tee
46、th. “We try to make it smart but also fun,“ Serval says. Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,“ but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that real
47、ly told him how well his children brushed. The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, depending on features. The U. S. is the first target market. Serval says that one day, it“ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a came
48、ra. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.（分数：10.00）(1).Which is one of the features of the Kolibree toothbrush?（分数：2.00）A.It can sense how users brush their teeth.B.It can track users“ school performance.C.It can detect users“ fear of seeing a dentist.D.It can help users f
49、ind their phones.(2).What can we learn from Serval“s words in Paragraph 3?（分数：2.00）A.You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist.B.You should see your dentist on a day-to-day basis.C.You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist.D.You“d like a dentist to watch you brush your teeth every day.(3).Which of the following might make the Kolibree toothbrush fun?（分数：2.00）A.It can be used to update mobile phones.B.It can be used to play mobile
