9、nts. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice. 57 Once it was possible to define male and female roles easily by the division of labor. Men worked outside the home and earned the income to support their families, while women cooked the meals

10、and took care of the home and the children. These roles were firmly fixed for most people, and there was not much opportunity for women to exchange their roles. But by the middle of this century, mens and womens roles were becoming less firmly fixed. In the 1950s, economic and social success was the

11、 goal of the typical American. But in the 1960s a new force developed called the counterculture. The people involved in this movement did not value the middle-class American goals. The counterculture presented men and women with new role choices. Taking more interest in childcare, men began to share

12、 child-raising tasks with their wives. In fact, some young men and women moved to communal homes or farms where the economic and childcare responsibilities were shared equally by both sexes. In addition, many Americans did not value the traditional male role of soldier. Some young men refused to be

13、drafted as soldiers to fight in the war in Vietnam. In terms of numbers, the counterculture was not a very large group of people. But its influence spread to many parts of American society. Working men of all classes began to change their economic and social patterns. Industrial workers and business

14、 executives alike cut down on “overtime“ work so that they could spend more leisure time with their families. Some doctors, lawyers, and teachers turned away from high paying situations to practice their professions in poorer neighborhoods. In the 1970s, the feminist movement, or womens liberation,

15、produced additional economic and social changes. Women of all ages and at all levels of society were entering the work force in greater numbers. Most of them still took traditional womens jobs as public school teaching, nursing, and secretarial work. But some women began to enter traditionally male

16、occupations: police work, banking, dentistry, and construction work. Women were asking for equal work, and equal opportunities for promotion. Today the experts generally agree that important changes are taking place in the roles of men and women. Naturally, there are difficulties in adjusting to the

17、se transformations. 58 Which of the following best expresses the main idea of Paragraph 1? （ A） Women usually worked outside the home for wages. （ B） Men and womens roles were easily exchanged in the past. （ C） Mens roles at home were more firmly fixed than womens. （ D） Mens and womens roles were us

18、ually quite separated in the past. 59 Which sentence best expresses the main idea of Paragraph 2? （ A） The first sentence. （ B） The second and the third sentences. （ C） The fourth sentence. （ D） The last sentence. 60 In the passage the author proposes that the counterculture_. （ A） destroyed the Uni

19、ted States. （ B） transformed some American values. （ C） was not important in the United States. （ D） brought people more leisure time with their families. 61 It could be inferred from the passage that_. （ A） men and women will never share the same goals. （ B） some men will be willing to exchange the

20、ir traditional male roles. （ C） most men will be happy to share some of the household responsibilities with their wives. （ D） more American households are headed by women than ever before. 62 The best title for the passage may be_. （ A） Results of Feminist Movements （ B） New influence in American Li

21、fe （ C） Counterculture and Its Consequence （ D） Traditional Division of Male and Female Roles 62 A close analogy to a study design is the rough sketch made by an artist before he commits his vision to canvas(画布 ). The broad outlines are drawn, the proper perspective achieved, and the total impact of

22、 the picture-to-be can be partially appreciated in advance. So it is with the design of research: it specifies in advance the kinds of statements that can be made on the basis of its findings and fixes the perspectives against which these findings are to be evaluated. One major purpose of this study

23、 was to demonstrate whether or not the newer social research techniques could help in broadening and deepening knowledge concerning juvenile delinquency(少年犯罪 ). Construction of the design was guided by this goal of exploring new methods in the analysis of juvenile delinquency. However, research tech

24、nique developed in one content area can not be mechanically transferred to another. A new application of them requires substantial changes and it is these innovative modifications which this study offers as its contribution. Juvenile delinquency has been the subject of many previous studies using a

25、variety of research techniques. This study makes an additional contribution by using a design specially planned to permit a comparison of several approaches. The drawing up of the study design profited greatly from an extensive survey of previous re searches on crime, undertaken during the earliest

26、stage of the project. It was found that most studies could be classified as belonging to one or more of three broadly conceived types: social background study, family background study and personal motivation study. Each type has its characteristic design and mode of interpretation and each has produ

27、ced information of considerable importance. Yet not attempt was made in any of the studies to integrate one or more of these three design types. It became apparent that one of the major contributions a pilot study could make to both method and substantive findings would be to bring all three study t

28、ypes together in one design for the purpose of correlating(使相互关联 ) their findings and evaluating their relative importance in producing data of use to the practitioner. 63 In the first paragraph, the author draws an analogy between _. （ A） doing research and drawing a picture （ B） research finding a

29、nd pictures perspective （ C） designing a research and making a quick drawing （ D） a researcher and a painter 64 The word “project “(Line 2, Para. 4) refers to“ _“. （ A） a comprehensive study of juvenile delinquency （ B） a full exploration of research designs （ C） an extensive research on crime （ D）

30、a further investigation into new research techniques 65 The major contribution of this study is to _. （ A） develop a new research technique easily transferred from one area to another （ B） make a comprehensive analysis of juvenile delinquency （ C） demonstrate the successful application of new resear

31、ch techniques in a new area （ D） modify creatively the previous research finding of juvenile delinquency 66 According to the author, three design types of previous researches are _. （ A） interrelated to one another （ B） supplementary to one another （ C） to be modified considerably （ D） to be integra

32、ted into one design 67 The passage is mainly concerned with _. （ A） application of analogy in studying juvenile delinquency （ B） a research design concerning juvenile delinquency （ C） significance of juvenile delinquency （ D） an extensive survey of researches in juvenile delinquency 三、 Part V Cloze
