24、neties, and moved towards the hundred mark. People complained, but there was no serious disaster.The death number in the U. S. Remained quite small, thanks largely to the air-conditioning units that had been fitted during previous years and months. Temperatures rose to the limit of human endurance t
25、hroughout the whole country and people were obliged to remain indoors for weeks on end. Occasionally air-conditioning units failed and it was then that fatalities occurred.Conditions were utterly desperate throughout the tropics(热带地区)as may be judged from the fact that 7943 species of plants and ani
26、mals became totally extinct. The survival ofMan himself was only possible because of the caves and cellars(地窖)he was able to dig. Nothing could be done to reduce the hot air temperature. More than seven hundred million persons are known to have lost their lives.Eventually the temperature of the surf
27、ace waters of the sea rose, not so fast as the air temperature it is true, but fast enough to produce a dangerous increase of humidity(湿度). It was indeed this increase that produced the disastrous conditions just remarked. Millions of people between the latitudes of Cairo and the Cape of Good Hope w
28、ere subjected to a choking atmosphere that grew damper and hotter from day to day. All human movement ceased. There was nothing to be done but to lie breathing quickly as a dog does in hot weather.By the fourth week of July conditions in the tropics lay balanced between life and total death. Then qu
29、ite suddenly rain clouds appeared over the whole globe. The temperature declined a little, due no doubt to the clouds reflecting more of the Suns radiation back into space, But conditions could not be said to have improved. Warm rain fell everywhere, even as far north as Iceland. The insect populati
30、on increased enormously, since the burning hot atmosphere was as favorable to them as it was unfavorable to Man many other animals.1.

34、 the rain clouds D. the damp atmosphereBIn a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equalit
35、y, and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the battle of the sexes.If the process goes too f
36、ar and mans role is regarded as less important - and that has happened in some cases-we are as badly of as before, only in reverse.It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of monism(母亲崇拜), - but we dont want to exchange it for a neo-popism(新父亲崇
37、拜).What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals.There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receiv
38、e all the credit(信任)-not all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a womans place is the home. We are beginning, however, o analyze mens place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a coop
39、erative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is connec
