26、icket, I want to stop them and ask if they know just where their money is going. The lottery money is supposed to go to charity-but it makes me angry to see some of the so called “good causes“ its being used to support. Also, Camelot, the organizers, have made a profit of 10.8 million in five months

27、. We hear now that a lot of that money is boosting the pay packets of the companys bosses. For the past 10 years Ive been helping to raise funds for a cancer research charity called Tenovus. My husband, Sam, died from cancer 11 years ago he was only 51. Theres been a long line of deaths in our famil

28、y through cancer and its been devastating. Ive also lost two sisters-in-law, my brother, Michael, my father-in-law and my father. Thats apart from several close friends. The charity is 50 years old now and raises money mainly for breast cancer research. It also runs a support line for the families o

29、f cancer sufferers. Our local group raises money through dances, sales and coffee mornings, and all the funds go directly to cancer research. In 1993 Tenovus raised 3 million and half of that money came from sales of our own lottery tickets at supermarkets. But our income has dropped by half since t

30、he National Lottery was introduced. Im not against people playing the National Lottery, but they should think about what theyre doing. The chances of winning the jackpot (赌注 )are so small; they might as well throw their money away. The Government tells us that the proceeds(收入 ) are going to things l

31、ike the arts and sport, but what about the National Health Service? They should give some cash to that, too. How can they justify spending ridiculous amounts of cash on so called works of art like displays of potatoes or buying up Winston Churchills papers at a cost of 12 million? So who really are

32、the winners in the National Lottery? When I think of all that money people could be donating to cancer research, I could weep. Its time people realized how charities across the country are suffering because of the National Lottery. Its disheartening and so infuriating(令人发怒的 ). 46 The writer seems to

33、 hope that _. （ A） people will spend more money on the National Lottery （ B） people will give more money to charity （ C） most of the lottery money will go to charity （ D） most of the lottery money will be used for cancer research 47 The reason why the writer raises funds for cancer research is that.

36、 up to assist the National Lottery 50 From the text we can conclude that _. （ A） the writer is enthusiastically supporting the National Lottery （ B） the writer has objections to the National Lottery （ C） the writer believes that the lottery money should be used for cancer research （ D） the writer is

37、 just expressing her feelings about collecting money for charity 51 The cohesiveness (内聚力 )of a family seems to rely on members sharing certain routine practices and events. For a growing share of the American labor force, however, working shifts beyond the normal daylight hours what we here call “s

38、hift work“ makes the lives of families difficult. Existing research shows that both male and female shift workers express high levels of stress and a sense of conflict between the demands of work and family life. But shift work couples still maintain a traditional attitude about the meaning of marri

39、age and the individual roles of husband and wife. They expressed a willingness to do “whatever it takes“ to approximate their view of a propel marriage, including sacrificing sleep and doing conventional things at unconventional hours. For the majority of couples interviewed, even when wives worked

40、outside their homes a proper marriage is. characterized by a very clear-division of roles: husbands are “providers“ whose major responsibility is to support the family; wives are “homemakers“ who clean, cook, and care for husbands and children. The womens definitions of a “good husband“ are typified

41、 by the following wifes response: I expect him to be a good provider, and be there when I need him, loyal about the same things as he would expect out of me, expect that I expect him to dominate over me. But in a manner of speaking when its time to be a man I expect him to stand up instead of sittin

42、g back expecting me to do everything. To husbands, a good wife is someone who is: Understanding of what I feel go through at work. I need that respect at work, I hope I get it at work. I want my wife to realize what I expect at work. I dont want her to give me a lot of shit when I come home from wor

43、k because I don t know if this makes much sense. These views seemed critical to maintain the families of the shift workers. 51 Despite _ , shift work couples still hoped to maintain a stable life. （ A） traditional beliefs about marriage （ B） lack of control over time （ C） a very clear division of ro

44、les （ D） the demands of work 52 From the selection, we can conclude that female shift workers were NOT satisfied with _. （ A） their work （ B） their children （ C） their husbands inability to protect the family and provide companionship （ D） leisure activities 53 What is implied by the author? （ A） Sh

48、at everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that youre “hot“. Thats true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it come

49、s in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, Peter! Youll be late for work again!“ The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family ha
