Modern society cannot well do without the contribution that women can make in the professions and other kinds of work. There is a serious shortage of nurses and teachers, to mention only two of the occupations followed by women. It is a waste to give years of training at public expense only to have the qualified teacher or nurse marry after a year or two and be lost forever to her profession. The training, it is true, will help her in her duties as a mother, but if she continued to work, her service would be more widely useful. Many factories and shops, too, are largely staffed by women, many of them married. While here the question of training is not so important, industry and trade would be seriously short of staff if married women did not work.
We can see then that there are good reasons for regarding it as desirable that married women should have some occupation outside the home. However, there are serious objections. Schools do not keep children occupied the whole day and school holidays are long. The mother’s working day will almost certainly end well after the school day and her holiday will not begin at the same time as her children’s. There will be therefore a period when children are not taken care of unless a substitute for the mother can be found, or unless it becomes more generally possible for women to work part-time. There seem to be some grounds for believing that there is more bad behavior among the children of working mothers than among those of mothers who stay at home, but more evidence is required before we can be certain of this. What we can be certain of, however, is that many more will continue to do so.

| A．they are not allowed to give up their jobs |
| B．their training should not be wasted |
| C．they want to make a living by themselves |
| D．they must still improve themselves as mothers |
| A．schools keep children occupied the whole day |
| B．their mothers change their occupation |
| C．their mothers do not work full time |
| D．their mothers should stay at home |
| A．if someone takes over the mother’s occupation |
| B．if no mother works all day |
| C．if no one takes care of the children for the mother |
| D．if someone takes care of the children for the mother |
| A．possibly less than | B．about the same as |
| C．a little greater than | D．certainly more than |

Every human being, 36 what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is 37 dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the 38 problem — how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes 39 body heat, but the heat given off by such objects 40 light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well 41 no conventional fuel is needed 42 the campus’ six buildings comfortable.
Some parts of most modern buildings — theatres and offices 43 classrooms — are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned 44 in winter. The technique of 45 heat and redistributing it is 46 “heat recover”. A few modern buildings recover 47 , but the university’s system is the first to recover heat 48 some buildings and re-use it in 49 . Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The 50 a student studies, the more heat his body 51 . Male students emit more heat than 52 students, and the larger a student, the more heat he 53 . It is tempting to 54 that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a 55 , over-weight male genius.

“They not only make it 38 to sleep at night, but they are 39 damage to our houses and shops of historical interest,” said John Norris, one of the protesters.
“ 40 we must have these noisy trucks on the roads,” said Jean Lacey, a biology student，“why don’t they build a new road that goes 41 the town？Burlington isn’t much more than a 42 village．Its streets were never meant for heavy traffic．”

Whitman(惠特曼)was one of the most original and inspiring American poets, true to his art and to his role as a poet. He devoted himself to poetry praising the native American experience. As America’s first epic poem, Leaves of Grass(《草叶集》)ran nine editions with more than 400 poems all written in free verse(诗)form, that is, poetry without a fixed beat or regular rhyme scheme. The tide implies rebirth, renewal, or green life. As Whitman once said, “Leaves of Grass was the outcropping of my own emotional and other personal nature―an attempt, from first to last, to put a person, a human being freely, fully and truly on record.”
For Whitman, science, democracy[民主] and spirituality(灵性)were the three things that founded the base (构成……基础)of modern poetry. Whitman tried to mix the world of science, the philosophy of democracy and the spiritual feeling of life into one, to incorporate(合并)these into his poetry. For Whitman, the poetic form was to be organic, not limited(受限制的). Therefore, he threw aside the traditional ornaments(修饰)and prettiness of verse and had his own form. Both the form and content of his poems are revolutionary. With its frequent use of common language and everyday events, his poems represents a turning point in the history of American poetry―poetry fashioned out of specially American experience in a clearly American idiom. Whitman’s unique poetic creation has developed a very significant tradition in American poetry.
In his poems, he celebrated new

A．he thought the poetic form was not limited but organic

C．the readers didn’t like the traditional ornaments and prettiness of verse
D．he wanted to make his poems special
