21、ne of my adult-education classes. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home， not once， but twice. The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter. He and his wife thought they couldnt bear that first loss； but， as he said， “Ten months later， God gave us another little girl and she died in
22、five days.” This double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “I couldnt take it， ” this father told us， “I couldnt sleep， eat， rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone. ”At last he went to doctors； one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip， but nei
23、ther helped. He said， “My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice (大钳子 )， and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” The tension of grief (悲伤 )if you have ever been paralyzed ( 使瘫痪 ) by sorrow， you know what he meant. “But thank God， I had one child lefta four -year-old son.
24、 He gave me the solution to my problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself， he asked，Daddy， will you build a boat for me？ I was in no mood to build a boat； in fact， I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent little fellow！ I had to give in. Building that toy boat
25、 took me about three hours. By the time it was finished， I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months！ I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinkin
26、g. In my case，building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.” “The following night， I made a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired. Amazingly， I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. During the last two years I hav
27、e completed most of them. I am busy so that I have no time for worry.” No time for worry！ That is exactly what Winston Church ill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities， he said， “I am too busy. I have n

32、wever， the archaeologists working on the excavation(挖掘 )have found that they still have a great deal to do. The sun, the wind and tourists have left their mark on the village, originally discovered by Bernard Bruyhre in 1935 “From our modern perspective， it is upsetting to see how the village was fi
33、rst excavated and then left to be destroyed. Passers-by have used the huts as rubbish dumps and restrooms,”says Jaana ToivariViitala, a teacher at the University of Helsinki.“Fortunately, while we still have some surface cleaning to do, conservation are off to a good start.” The hut village offers r
34、are insight into everyday life in ancient Egypt. “In the early twentieth century， archaeologists were only interested in the tombs of kings. The workmens huts they discovered were seen as a neces sary evil in the quest for the real treasures.” “Now several international research groups on different
35、excavations are examining everyday life and work in the Valley of the Kings. This seems to be a trend in archaeology right now.” Toivari-Viitala says Her research group wants to find out why the hut village was built on the slope of a mountain， halfway between the construction site and Deir-el-Medin
36、a. They are also interested in how many workers lived in the village at a time, when they lived there, and what their role was in the construction work. “Comparing the names found in the village and in Deir-el-Medina provides useful information Judging from the construction methods， settlement in th
37、e village can be divided into two separate periods: the initial settlement and a later one.” For the time being， much is up to guessing, but Toivari-Viitala believes that the coming four field seasons, three months each, will see results. “The working conditions are not nearly as difficult as I thou
38、ght they would be. The cool winds in the mountains nicely alleviate the heat.” The research group working on the “Workmens huts in the Theban mountains” project is planning to return to the Valley of the Kings in October. 【小题 1】 .

There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what its like to
43、work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes. At 19, when I began studying astrophysics(天体物理学 ), it d
44、id not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as 3 post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievementjobs, research papers, awards was viewed through the lens of gender (性别 ) politics. So were my fa
45、ilures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相对于 ) right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育 ), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind. Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any a
46、nd all provocations: I dont talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didnt want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist After all, I dont study sociology or politica
47、l theory. Today I research and teach at Barnard, a womens college in New York City. Recently, someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women. You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer: 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific re
48、search and a desire for children. And I dont dismiss those concerns. Still, I dont tell them war stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And thats a sight worth talking about. 【小题 1】 . From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would attribute(归因于 ) the authors failures to_. A the very fact that she is a woman B her involve
