| 第4、5、6、7、8题：The greatest recent social changes have been in the lives of women. During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman's life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods. This important change in women's life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job. However when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full- or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them. 36. It's probably now that women __________. A. marry men younger than themselves B. do not do housework C. do not want to give birth to children D. provide the money to the family like her husband 37. For women at the twentieth, the amount of time spent caring for children ______. A. was shorter than in previous centuries B. was longer than in previous centuries C. was considered to be surprisingly long D. accounted for a great part of their lives 38. We are told that, in an average family about 1900 _______. A. many children died before they were five B. seven or eight children lived to be more than five C. the youngest child would be fifteen D. four of five children died when they were five 39． When she was over fifty, the late nineteenth century mother ______. A. was unlikely to find a job even if she wanted one B. would not expect to work C. was very healthy and beautiful D. was considered to have a rest at home 40. One reason why the woman of today may take a job is that she _______. A. is younger when her children are still young B. does not like caring for children C. need not worry about food for her children D. is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselves |

| 第9、10、11、12、13题：The modern sailing ship was developed by a man who never went to sea. He was Prince Henry of Portugal,the younger son of the Partuguese king and an English princess. Prince Henry lived in the fifteenth century.As a boy he became devoted to the sea,and he dedicated himself to improving the design of ships and the methods of sailing them.In 1416,when he was twentytwo,Henry founded a school for mariners, to which he invited everyone who could help him—Jewish astronomers,Italian and Spanish sailors,and Arab mathematicians and map makers who knew to use the crude compass of the day and could improve it. Henry's goal was to design and equip vessels that would be capable of making long ocean voyages without having to hug the shore.The caravel carried more sail and was longer and slimmer than any ship then made,yet was tough enough to withstand gales at sea.He also developed the carrack,which was a slower ship,but one that was capable of carrying more cargo. To Prince Henry the world owes credit for development of craft that made oceanic exploration possible.He lives in history as Henry the Navigator. 36. Henry the Navigator was a member of the royal family of____. A.England B.Spain C.Italy D.Portugal 37. Prince Henry started his school for the purpose of____. A.helping mariners B.improving ship design and sailing methods C.studying astronomy and mathematics D.improving his own skill as a sailor 38.

Prince Henry's goal was to design vessels that could____. A.make long deepsea voyages B.travel faster than those in use at that time C.explore the coastline of Portugal D.carry larger crews and more cargo than existing one 40.
