阅读短文,选择正确答案。     Have you ever noticed an advertisement which says "Learn a foreign language in six weeks, or your money
back! From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send …" and so on? Of course, it never
happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think how much
practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the
literature (文学) of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is what most people want. Every year many
millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and tapes; some
use radio or television programmes; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only two or three
times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school. A few people try to learn a
language fast by studying for six or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country
where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the
language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors mainly need to be able to read
books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work.
Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the students work for him. 1. In the advertisement it is possible for a person to learn a foreign language _______. [     ]
A. more than two month
B. half a year
C. six months
D. less than two month 2. Before the Second World War people learned a foreign language in order to ______. [     ]
A. speak to each other
B. listen to the radio

A. using the language six or more hours a day
B. learning the language at school
C. studying the language in the foreign country
D. reading the foreign stories as many as possible 4. Most people now learn a foreign language to ________.[     ]
A. read books and reports in a foreign language
B. talk to foreign friends
C. go to the other country to learn a language well
D. try their best to work better 5. The passage tells us that _______. [     ]
A. the more you spend, the quicker you"ll learn the language
B. it is possible for you to learn a foreign language in six weeks
C. it is not good for you to learn a foreign language by yourself
D. the quicker you learn a foreign language, the more you must pay for it

阅读短文,选择正确答案。     People like to say: "The hand that rocks (摇动) the cradle (摇篮) rules the world." Or they say: "Behind every
successful man, there is a woman". Now some women still like making their husbands and sons successful. But
some women want more for themselves. They want to be successful as men. Today the best jobs are still given
to men. Even when women do the same work, they are often paid less than men. Some women want these
things changed. They want to stand beside the men, with the same chances for success. Now many American
women are earning money outside their homes. More than half of the women at the age of eighteen to sixty-five
have good jobs. In general, working women have more education than those who stay at home. Among women
with jobs, eight out of ten drive a car to work, and most of them often spend their holidays away from home.
They like traveling by air. Women"s work had made several changes in women"s lives- and in men"s lives, too.
But things are quite different from those in the Middle East countries. In the Middle East countries, women have
to stay at home. Their duty is to look after their families and do all the housework. They can"t find work outside.
When they go out in public, they cover their faces with something and walk behind their husbands. For the past
few years the women"s life has been changing in those countries. Many women want to play an active role in the
society (社会). Though working gives them few chances of getting married, many men still want to marry them
in the old ways. 1. More and more women want to get jobs because ________.[     ]
A. they don"t want to stand behind their husbands in the street

A. because women want more money
B. because of the old ways of thinking

A. they can get better jobs easier
B. they don"t have to do any housework

A. the chance to receive more education than men
B. chances to play an important role in the society

根据短文内容,按要求答题。
    Television has now come to nearly every family. It has become a very important part in people"s life.
School children in some cities watch TV about twenty hours a week. 
     Some people believe that television is good for children because it helps them learn about their country
and the world. With the help of programmes of education, children do better in school.
     Other people feel that there are too many programmes about love and crime on TV, and that even
programmes of education don"t help children a lot. Children simply watch too much television, so they
don"t do a lot of other important things for their education.
     Children of three to six learn to speak their own language and talk with people. When they are watching
TV, they are only listening to the language, and they aren"t talking with anyone. When school children watch
TV, they read less. Because of this they don"t learn to read or write quickly at school. All children learn by
doing, and they need time to play in order to learn about the world. When they watch TV, they play less.
They also have less time to do with their parents and friends, and they have less time to have sports.
     Recently, a hundred and fifteen families in a middle school decided to stop watching for a month or more.
At first it was difficult, but there were soon a lot of good changes. The children read, played, and exercised
more and the family became full of joy. But at the end of the month all the families began to watch TV as
much as before. Not one family was able to give up television completely.
1. Why does television become a very important part for school children in some cities?
                                                                                                                                                         
2. According to this article, what good things do television programmes help children to learn about?
                                                                                                                                                         
3. Give the two reasons against children"s watching TV in Paragraph 3. 
                                                                                                                                                         
4. It is true that all children learn by doing. What do children need to do for their healthy personal growth?
                                                                                                                                                         
5. What is the best title for this passage (短文)?
