    I know how busy you are so thank you for taking the   29  to do this and I will post pictures of this   30  after I return.

    Today's parents miss the golden age that their own mothers enjoyed in the 1970s and 1980s, researchers found.
    Mothers have less time to themselves and feel under greater pressure to juggle work and family life than the previous generation. As a result, 88 per cent said they felt guilty about the lack of time they spent with their children.
    The survey of 1,000 mothers also found that more than a third said they had less time to themselves than their mothers did — just three hours a week or 26 minutes a day.
    And 64 percent said this was because they felt they 'had' to go out to work, while nearly a third (29 per cent) said they were under constant pressure to be the 'perfect mother', the report found.
    Other findings showed social network and parenting website were important in proving help and support among female communities
    Kate Fox, of the Social Issues Research Centre, which conducted the survey for Procter & Gamble, said: "With increasing pressure on mothers to work a 'double shift' — to be the perfect mother as well as a wage-earner — support networks are more important than ever."
    It comes as a separate report examining childcare in the leading industrialized nations found that working mothers in Britain spend just 81 minutes a day caring for their children as a "primary activity".
    Critics say the pressure on women to work long hours, and leave their children in the hands of nurseries or child minders, is putting the well-being of their children at risk.
    The study also reveals that, despite the fact that more and more modern mothers go out to work, the burden of childcare still falls on them — even if their husband is not in work.
    A father who is not in work tends to spend just 63 minutes a day looking after his child — 18 minutes less than a mother who goes out to work.
    Working fathers spare less than three quarters of an hour with their children.
    小题1:What is the main idea of the passage?  
    A．More and more modern mothers go out to work to support the families.
    B．Today's parents would rather leave their children in the hands of nurseries.
    C．Today's parents have less time to take care of their children.
    D．To keep the balance of work and family is not an easy thing.
    小题2:What does the underlined word "juggle" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?  
    A．keep objects in the air
    B．do many things at once
    C．change things
    D．organize spending
    小题3:According to Kate Fox,         .   
    A．people should learn to relax by using the network
    B．network plays an important role in society
    C．mothers should make use of the network to gain support
    D．it is impossible for woman to become the "double shift"
    小题4:Today's mothers lack the time to company their children mainly because         .   
    A．they have no choice but go to work
    B．they are under constant pressure
    C．they want to be "the perfect mother"
    D．they have less time to themselves
    小题5: Which of the following statements is True?    
    A．Mothers usually spend three hours looking after their children a day.
    B．Since more and more modern mothers go out to work, the burden of childcare falls on fathers.
    C．Child minders are good to the health of the children.
    D．Mothers spend more time with their children than fathers.

    Experts do not really know when people began keeping fish as pets. But they say that people have been interested in fish for thousands of years. Some say the ancient Sumerians were the first civilization to keep fish in ponds more than four thousand years ago. The Chinese kept and studied carp and goldfish more than one thousand years ago. The ancient Romans kept eels as pets. And the Greek philosopher Aristotle made what is believed to be the first known study of sea life, including sharks and dolphins.
    Keeping fish at home in small water tanks called aquariums is extremely popular today. And everyone seems to enjoy visiting huge public aquariums that have opened around the world.
    By the middle of the eighteen hundreds, science had shown that plants, fish and other sea creatures could survive together under water. So it was no longer necessary to change the water in a tank for the fish to live there. This led to the building of the first public aquariums.
    The first aquariums opened in London, England in 1853. in the next fifteen years, other aquariums opened in Europe and the United States. By 1928, there were about forty-five public aquariums.
    The Monterey Bay Aquarium has been recognized as the first aquarium in the United States and it shows visitors the underwater life in the bay. The Georgia Aquarium opening in 2005 says it is the largest in the world. It has more than one hundred thousand sea animals in thirty million liters of water including two whale sharks---the world’s largest fish.
    Another aquarium re-opened in 2005 in Camden, New Jersey. The Adventure Aquarium first opened in 1992. It spent about fifty million dollars expanding its building and improving its exhibits.
    Aquariums provide the public with many chances to experience life under the sea. They can be found in most areas of the world. People might even want to start an aquarium at home and join the millions of people around the world who keep fish as pets.
    小题1:Which aquarium opened again after its rebuilding ?
    A．The Monterey Bay Aquarium.B．The Adventure Aquarium.
    C．The Georgia Aquarium.D．The first aquarium in London.
    小题2:Which of the following is NOT mentioned to have kept fish as pets?
    A．The ancient Sumerians.B．The ancient Romans.C．The Chinese.D．The ancient Indians.
    小题3:Which of the following is correct?
    A．People were not interested in fish until the middle of the eighteen hundreds.
    B．The Moneterey Bay Aquarium is regarded as the best aquarium in America.
    C．Plants, fish and other sea creatures could not survive together under sea.
    D．People have to change the water in a tank frequently for the fish to live there.
    小题4: The passage is written mainly       .
    A．to tell people the importance of keeping fish as pets
    B．to explain why people want to visit aquariums
    C．to let people know the development of the aquariums
    D．to describe different aquariums
    小题5:What does the underlined word “aquariums” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
    A．Exhibition centres where people can watch and enjoy different species of fish.
    B．Small boxes made of glass, where people keep fish in, usually at home.
    C．Places which shows visitors the underwater life in the bay.
    D．Places which provides the public with many chances to experience life under the sea.

    My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to kill myself. Just for kids, I had to continue to live and work as small-town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.
    On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids: “I’m going to Afghanistan”. And a few weeks later, international Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care. In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs, we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule. Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose, and my depression went away.
    In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the tsunami, Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil warm and Iraq after more and more bombs. Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees, and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and food were also serious problems. “Adventures or not?” I often asked myself.
    When my wife passed away, I thought my life was done. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
    I think about the moment many times during my “adventures”. I didn’t know how predictive those words would be. But I know that she is still with me.
    小题1:Where has the doctor been in the past few years?
    A．Some countries where he could set up clinics.
    B．Some African countries where flu broke out.
    C．The places where the earthquakes happened.
    D．The places that the horrible disasters struck.
    小题2:How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?
    A．Tired and troublesome.
    B．Busy and risky.
    C．Meaningful and helpful
    D．Frightening and depressing.
    小题3:The underlined word “refugees” means people_______________.
    A．who are robbed, killed, or wounded
    B．who suffer from flu in movable clinics
    C．who like to take adventures
    D．who have lost homes because of disasters.
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．the doctor’s wife encouraged him to work in foreign countries.
    B．What the doctor said to his wife before her death became reality.
    C．The doctor’s adventures made him understand the love of his wife.
    D．With the true love of his wife, the doctor started to change his life.

    The Barbie doll first appeared at the toy fair in New York in 1959. Its creator was Ruth Handler, an American businesswoman. She and her husband Elliott along with Harold Matt Matson started the toy company Mattel. She based the design of the new doll on a German doll named Bild Lilli and named her after their daughter Barbara.
    The first Barbie wore a black and white swimsuit and had her hair in a ponytail(马尾辫). She looked very grown-up. But any concerns that parents would not want to buy it for little girls were soon proved wrong.
    Mattel sold 300,000 Barbie dolls in the first year at a price of three dollars. Today, a fifty-year-old Barbie in good condition might cost more than 27,000 dollars.
    Barbie dolls have represented 50 different nationalities and are sold in 150 countries. Mattel says 90% of girls in the United States between the ages of three and ten own at least one Barbie doll. It says girls between the ages of three and six own an average of about 12.
    Barbie also faced her share of critics. A well-known example was when women’s education groups objected to a talking Barbie doll that declared, among other things, “Math class is tough!” Mattel agreed to change it. Saudi Arabia has banned Barbie dolls. And a lawmaker in the American state of West Virginia would like to do the same. Last month, he proposed banning sales of Barbie and other dolls that influence girls to put too much importance on physical beauty.
    Some people say Barbie is an unhealthy role model for young girls. Robin Gerber disagrees. She wrote a book about Barbie. She points out dolls like scientist Barbie and race car driver Barbie. She says people who criticize Barbie should tell girls the story of the businesswoman who created her. She says Ruth Handler wanted the dolls to help girls think about what they wanted to do with their lives.
    小题1:The first Barbie doll might not be popular among little girls because _______.
    A．her hairstyle was out of fashion
    B．her appearance looked much too mature
    C．her way of dressing was against the tradition
    D．physical beauty wasn’t thought to be important
    小题2:From the passage we know that Mattel ________.
    A．is one of the world’s largest toy companies
    B．is the director of an American toy company
    C．was the woman who originally created Barbie
    D．was a salesman who was good at selling Barbie dolls
    小题3:Barbie dolls are criticized partly because they make girls ________.
    A．pay too much attention to their physical beauty
    B．neglect their schoolwork and inner beauty
    C．prefer physical beauty to inner beauty
    D．waste too much time and money on clothes
    小题4:It can be inferred from the last paragraph that in her book Robin Gerber ________.
    A．shows Barbie dolls have a negative influence on girls
    B．praises a successful person who sells Barbie dolls
    C．expresses her own favorable opinion about Barbie
    D．argues for banning the sales of Barbie dolls

    More and more often we heard of people talking about Karaoke (卡拉OK). But what on earth it is about still remains a question for many people. Karaoke is a sort of acoustic (听觉的) equipment which was invented in Japan around the middle of the 1970's. It means "a band without people" in Japanese. In fact, it is just a music tape without words. This equipment first appeared in some public houses and snack bars, and mainly for the customers to enjoy themselves. Most of the music in Karaoke was popular music. Therefore, at times, when anyone felt like it, he might sing songs to the accompaniment (陪伴) of the music that came from the equipment. Shortly after its invention, Karaoke was spread to the whole world. It was introduced to China and was welcomed by many people. Although you are not a good singer, or even sometimes you may sing out of tune, you can always enjoy yourself by singing Karaoke.
    小题1:In this passage "band" means "group of persons ________."
    A．who play games on the sports ground
    B．who play music together
    C．living in the same neighborhood
    D．doing things together under a leader and with a common purpose
