20、 days, women used to sit at home separated from the outside world. They used to manage the home and look after children. They were free of the responsibility of earning money to support the family, which was left to men.With the coming of industrialization (工业化) and technological development, the li
21、festyles of human beings started to change. The needs of human beings started to grow. In this process, women slowly started to move outside the home. Women received the same education as men. Gradually, women slowly started to think independently and participated equally with men in all fields of l
22、ife, including politics, sports and even military.With changing environments, the role of women has become more important in society. To match todays standard of living, it is necessary for both men and women to support the family.Today, women have been given bigger roles to play in society. They ar
23、e even taking more responsibility than men. At first, men disagreed with women pursuing (追求) their careers outside the home. However, with growing needs and a shortage of money, they had no other way but to accept the reality.The financial contributions from women to their families have increased, b
24、ut in some places, the home is still managed only by women as in the past. It is a challenging task for women to manage both. Women are bearing the stress and suffering mental difficulties with both managing the home and pursuing their careers.48. The best title for the passage would be _.A. Womens

Earlier in the old days, women used to do the following EXCEPT _.A. wash clothes B. prepare dinnersC. look after children D. make money for the family50. We can
26、infer from the last paragraph that _.A. women dont need to manage the home todayB. women are taking more responsibility than beforeC. men still disagree with women pursuing their careersD. men have begun to do more housework than womenBOne of the qualities that most people admire in others is the wi
27、llingness to admit ones mistakes. It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like “I was wrong about that，”and it is even harder to say，“I was wrong, and you were right about that.”I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He to
28、ld me he had been the manager of a certain grocery store in the neighborhood where I grew up，and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (箱子).Then he related（提到） an incident and I began to remember clearly the incident he was describing.I was about eight years old at the time，and I had gone into
29、 the store with my mother to do the weekly grocery shopping. On that day，I must have found my way to the dairy (乳品的) food department where the incident took place.There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there was an impressive display of eggs in dozen and halfdozen cartons. The
30、cartons were stacked(堆放) three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of a display to admire the stacks. Just then a woman came by pushing her grocery cart and knocked off the stacks of cartons. For some reason，I decided it was up to me to put the display back together，so I went to work.The
31、 manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared，I was on my knees examining some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken，but to him it looked as though I was the criminal（罪犯）.He severely scolded（责骂） me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I
32、 protested(抗议)my innocence and tried to explain，but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident，obviously the manager did not.51.The author was when he wrote this article.A. about 8B. about 18 C. about 23 D. about 1552.Who should have been blamed for knocking off the stacks o
33、f cartons？A. The author. B. The manager. C. The woman. D.

34、what he didnt doB. has forgiven the manager for what he did to him fifteen years agoC. would like to tell people never to be fooled by an egg saleD. expects the woman to say sorry to him for the mistake she madeCA new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows tha
35、t although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression（忧郁症）. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the
36、 connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”. According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic r
37、elationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that to their parents.Dr Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump
38、into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.Pa
39、rents should watch for signs of depression eating or mood changes and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity（成熟）g

41、ion?AYoung people who have a strong sense of selfishnessBYoung boys whose parents watch for their behaviorCYoung girls who always hide their feelings and opinionsDCareless parents whose children are deep in love57What can be inferred from the passage?ALacking love can lead young people to grow up mo
