21、sThe young wage-earner often earns good money，and soon acquires a feeling of economic independenceIn textile areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work，but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not unusual factor in a childs home life，the number

25、owadays rarely see their fathers at their place of workBthat fathers do not like to pursue employment at home any moreCthat there is a wide choice of employment for childrenDthat children also like to have jobs outsideBFoxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long
26、been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside,
27、 with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of
28、behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal（残酷的）, has risen s
29、harply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation（冲突）between hunters and hunt saboteurs（阻拦者）. Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the dogs f
30、ollow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labor Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is tryi
31、ng to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.44Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes .Afor recreation（娱乐） Bin the interests of the farmersCto
32、limit the fox population Dto show off their wealth45What is special about fox hunting in Britain?AIt involves the use of a deadly poison.BIt is a costly event which rarely occurs.CThe hunters have set rules to follow.DThe hunters have to go through strict training.46A new law may be passed by the Br
33、itish Parliament to .Aprohibit farmers from hunting foxes Bforbid hunting foxes with dogsCstop hunting wild animals in the countryside Dprevent large-scale fox hunting47It can be inferred from the passage that .Akilling foxes with poison is illegalBlimiting the fox population is unnecessaryChunting
34、foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violentDfox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the richC“A very disruptive（扰乱型的）six-year old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand，”said one teacher. “I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs，”said another. Many people have
35、 heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.Every child , regardless of the circumstances into which they are born，has the right to achieve their potential，regardless of their parents wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation，it is a long way
36、 to achieve this goal. But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter.Far too many children are behaving badly at school，even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough，but it is hard to be surprised since many chi
37、ldren are just mirroring the behavior of their parents. Too many are starting school unable to hold a knife and fork, unused to eating at a table，and unable to use the lavatory properly.We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place
38、to sleep，has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.Schools
39、 cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their childrens behavior and sticking to those boundaries when the
40、going gets tough. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources-time-so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.48In the opinion of the writer, what problem do people ignore?AThe school violence. BThe pressure of st
41、udents learningCThe right to achieve students potential. Dthe responsibilities of the students.49The writers attitude to the behaviors of parents may be that of .Adissatisfied Bunconcern Cunderstanding Dtolerance50The underlined part in Para 4 may means .Aparents and children live in their separate
42、roomsBparents care little about childrens life at homeCchildren dont live with their parents in the same roomDat home children live a different life from that of parents51From the last paragraph, we can infer that .Aschools cant correct the wrongs that society does to teachersBteachers have no respo
43、nsibility for playing the role of parentsCparents should spend time with children making them ready to learnDstudents are responsible for making themselves known in societyDAfter too long on the Net，even a phone call can be a shock. My boyfriends Liverpudlian accent suddenly becomes too difficult to
44、 understand after his clear words on screen; a secretarys tone seems more rejecting than Id imagined it would be. Time itself becomes fluid- hours becomes minutes， and alternately seconds stretch into days. Weekends， once a highlight of my week，are now just two ordinary days.For the last three years
45、，since I stopped working as a producer for Charlie Rose，I have done much of my work as a telecommuter. I submit articles and edit them by E-mail and communicate with colleagues on Internet mailing lists. My boyfriend lives in England, so much of our relationship is computer-mediated.If I desired，I c
46、ould stay inside for weeks without wanting anything. I can order food，and manage my money，love and work. In fact，at times I have spent as long as three weeks alone at home，going out only to get mail and buy newspapers and groceries. I watched most of the blizzard of 96 on TV.But after a while，life i
47、tself begins to feel unreal. I start to feel as though Ive merged（融合）with my machines，taking data in spitting them back out， just another node （波节）on the Net. Others on line report the same symptoms. We start to strongly dislike the outside forms of socializing. Its like attending an A. A. meeting i
48、n a bar with everyone holding a half-sipped drink. We have become the Net opponents worst nightmare. What first seemed like a luxury，crawling from bed to computer，not worrying about hair，and clothes and face，has become an avoidance，a lack of discipline. And once you start replacing real human contac
49、t with cyber-interaction，coming back out of the cave can be quite difficult.At times, I turn on the television and just leave it to chatter in the background, something that Id never done previously. The voices of the programs soothe（安慰）me, but then Im jarred（使感不快）by the commercials. I find myself s
50、ucked in by soap operas, or compulsively（强制性能地）needing to keep up with the latest news and the weather. Dateline, Frontline, Nightline, CNN, every possible angle of every story over and over and over, even when they are of no possible use to me. Work moves from foreground to background.52Compared to
51、 the clear words of her boyfriend on screen, his accent becomes .Aunreal Bunbearable Cmisleading Dnot understandable53What does the last paragraph mean ?AHaving worked on the computer for too long, she became a bit strange.BShe is so interested in TV programs that she often forgets her work.CShe wat
52、ches TV a lot in order to keep up with the latest news and the weather.DShe turns on TV now and then in order to get some comfort from TV program.54What is the authors attitude to the computer?AShe has become bored with it.BShe dislikes it because TV is more attractive.CShe dislikes it because it cu
53、ts off her relation with the outside world.DShe likes it because it is very convenient.55The underlined phrase “coming back out of the cave ”probably means .Agoing back to the dreaming world Bcoming back home from the outside worldCrestoring direct human contact Dgetting away from living a strange l
54、ifeEAlbert Einstein had a great effect on science and history. An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so onbut even ordinary man now
55、understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 young Einstein had been world-famous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and
56、 quiet life were broken by World War I.Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work. In the year following World War
57、 I honors were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well known for his humble（谦逊的）manners. He often said that his success would certainly have been achi
58、eved by others if he had never lived. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.56The main idea of the first paragraph is .Athe difficulty of Einsteins thought to othersBthe feeling of an American unive
