4、er women are out of the workplace,the harder it is to enter it.Women need to realize and accept that you do not want to be dependent on anyone for basic food,clothes and shelter.

5、our careers.And some days Im jealous of the moms who get to stay home or at least work part time.Im the only one that supports the family,so there will never be an option for me.I 2have the career and title Ive always wanted but now I cant help but think its at the expense of precious time with my f

9、rs.Just like any barber, Dasharath Kumar,28, combs the hair and meticulously runs the flame of the candle on the ends,giving it a unique finish.Thecutting-edge technique has made him the most demanded barber in his small village in Gulbarga in Karnataka in southern India.While Dasharath joined his f

10、amily business when he was 15,the unique idea only clicked him five years ago.He says: “Electricity cut was common in our village and we were used to working in dark.But one evening while I was cutting the hair of a customer, power went off and I had to use the light from a candle to finish the hair

11、cut. But the flames of the candle that night inspired me to think of using a new technique for trimming(修剪)hair.“3“I had bunch of regular customers so when I told them about the experiment,they happily said they trusted me and my skills and gave a nod for the new technique.Surprisingly, it came out

12、very well.Since then there was no looking back.“Started with only 20 pence,customers now happily pay him1 for his novel way of haircut.One of his daring customers Yusuf Khan,who waited for nearly two hours for his turn, said:“Every barber gives a haircut using scissors but the fun of getting a hairc

13、ut with a candle flame is unbeatable.Initially,I was not prepared for it but once I saw the magic of his hands, I never went back to a regular barber.”4.The best title for the passage is probably_.A.

16、25 bus in London,or the A train in New York,the change might not be noticeable.But public transport is becoming less busy in those places,and passenger numbers are flat or falling in almost every American city.That is despite healthy growth in urban populations and employment.Although transport agen

17、cies blame their unpopularity on things like roadworks and broken signals,it seems more likely that they are being outcompeted.App-based taxi services like Uber and Lyft are more comfortable and 4convenient than trains or buses.Cycling is nicer than it was,and rental bikes are more widely available.

18、Cars are cheap to buy, thanks to cut-rate loans, and ever cheaper to run.Online shopping,home working and office-sharing mean more people can avoid travelling altogether.The competition is only likely to grow.More than one laboratory is developing new transport technologies and applications.Silicon

20、re app-based services or to try to push them off the streets.That is understandable, given the rules-are-for-losers attitude of firms like Uber.But it is an error.It is doubtful that most people make hard distinctions between public and private transport.They just want to get somewhere,and there is

21、a cost in time,money and comfort.

25、 technology firmsDFor children, eating with their families is not only about preventing bad outcomes-it is also about developing good ones.Several studies have looked at the long-term effects eating with families has on children.Experts say that these studies do not seem to prove a cause-and-effect

26、relationship.However,they do suggest a strong tie.

27、ess likely to skip school.Children who eat a main meal with their families are also less likely to be badly-behaved.That is a finding of a study by The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia University in New York.In the CASA report,titled “The Importance of Family Dinne
