A typical American woman may be single. She may also be divorced or married. She may be a homemaker, a doct
27、or, or a factory worker. It is very difficult to generalize about American women. However, one thing that many American women have in common is their attitudes about themselves and their roles in American life.Historically, American women have always been very independent. The first settlers to come
28、 to New England were ten young couples that had left behind their extended families. The women were alone in a new, undeveloped country with their husbands. This has two important effects. First of all, this was the uncivilized environment that demanded every person to share in developing it and in
29、survival. Women worked with their husbands and children to make themselves accepted in this new land. Second, because they were in a new land without the established influence of older members of society, women felt free to step into nontraditional roles.This role of women was strengthened in later
30、years as Americans move west again, leaving families behind and meeting a new environment. Even later, in the east, as new settlers arrived, women often found jobs more easily than men. Women became the supporters of the family.Within the established lifestyle of the industrialized twentieth century
31、, the strong role of women was not attractive as in the early days of the country. Some women stepped into the mens jobs as factory and business workers. After the war, some women stayed in these positions, and others left their jobs with a new sense of ability.56A typical American woman is .Asingle

45、fort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no on
46、e will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it.Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you cant, and if you can manage withou
47、t interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious, write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list - preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a
48、special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days.Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you do the n
49、ew words you read.Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meaning of words.If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited
50、 or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500,000 600,000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German.66When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do? AGuess its meaning.BAsk somebody.CLook it up in a dictionary.DAll of the above.67According to this passage, the best way to build a go

54、more likely to die at a younger age than their taller peers .Their study , published in the Journal of Epidemiology (流行病学) and Community Health , found that short bones have something to do with short life for more than 1,000 years . The conclusion was based on 490 sets of adult skeletal remains fro
55、m an archaeological site in northeastern England , YC dating from the 9th century to about 1850 .About 55% of men and 73% of women died before the age of 45, and 39% of men and 56% of women died before age 30. The risk of death before age 30 declined as bone length increased .“This study provides ev
56、idence from an archaeological sample that long bone length is connected with age at death-those with smaller bones tend to die younger,” according to Dr. D.J. Gunnell of the university of Bristol in the UK and colleagues .While it is not clear why short stature might be linked to earlier death , the
57、 researchers point out that height is an indicator of childhood nutrition, which may have long-lasting effect on health .“Mechanism (身体结构) for height-mortality associations in the past may differ from those today , for example , short stature may have increased the risk of death in childbirth and th
58、is may explain the higher risk of premature mortality in women,” Gunnell and colleagues write .“However , short bones , it would appear , have always been a marker of a short life,” the authors conclude .71The title of the passage should be .AShort people and their taller peers BShort stature and sh
