The cars are sitting in petrol stations while drivers pay for their fuel. The Automobile Association(A.A) has
discovered that cars are left unattended for an average three minutes and sometimes longer as drivers buy
drinks, sweets, cigarettes and other consumer items.With payment of credit cards becoming more and more
common, it is not unusual for a driver to be out of his car for as long as six minutes, providing the car theft
with a golden opportunity.
For more than ten years there has been a big rise in car crime than in most other types of crime. An average
of more than two cars a minute are broken into or stolen in the UK. Car crime accounts for almost a third of
all reported offenses with no signs that the trend is slowing down.
Although there are highly professional criminal involved in car theft, almost 90 percent of car theft is
committed by the opportunists. Amateur thieves are aided by our own carelessness. The A.A. recommends
locking up whenever you leave the car and for however short a period. A partially open sunroof or window is
a further come-on (诱惑) to thieves.
There are many other traps to avoid. The A.A. has fond little awareness among drivers about safe parking.
Most motorists questioned made no efforts to avoid parking in quiet spots-just the places thieves love. The A.A.
advises drives to park in places with people around because thieves don"t like audiences.
B. about 20% of all reported crimes involve cars
C. car crime is decreasing gradually
D. the A. A. didn"t pay much attention to car crimes
B. people who always steal or break into cars
C. highly skillful criminals
D. careless criminals who tend to fail in their crimes
B. keep the sunroof and windows open
C. avoid parking in crowded places
D. keep some people around to watch their cars
B. the opportunities for non-professional car thieves
C. the anti-theft tips
D. when to lock the car

newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news
from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading
a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives-the
big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the
same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It"s already happening in areas
that may directly affect our lives, like genetic (基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be
more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do-as we develop a better understanding
of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It"s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted (传送) electronically from
Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I"m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future.
You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the
things you want to read- sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media (媒体).
They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers,
but that hasn"t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound
lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it"s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.
B. The Changes of Media
C. Make Your Own Newspaper
D. The Future of Newspaper
B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer
C. newspapers will cover more scientific research
D. more and more people will watch TV
B. A menu of important news.
C. The most important news.
D. What you are interested in.
B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media
C. television will take the place of newspaper
D. the writer believe some media will die out
values-this can not be repeated too often-aren"t necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and
order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves
faced with a room with rotten food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone on bed, taking
no notice of the worms. But is it interrupting personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of
their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the
worms, think we"re in danger of carrying this idea of personal freedom to the point where serious risks (冒
险) are being taken with the health and safety of the old.
Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The old is like a car: it needs more mechanical repair as it
gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to provision of spare parts. But never forget that
such operations are painful experiences, however good the results are. And at what point should you stop
to treat the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of medicine
to excite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active, knowing that it is designed to die? You
cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical chances, they will
feel it necessary to give them a try, by the rule that while there"s life, there"s hope.
Talking to the old, however, you"re forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant
depends less on money or health than it does on your ability to have fun.
B. old people enjoy living alone so as to have more personal freedom
C. every old people enjoy living with their relatives
D. social services have nothing to do with very old people
B. one should not take risk dealing with old people
C. health and safety are more important than personal freedom
D. personal freedom is more important than health and safety
B. the conclusion you have come to
C. whether age is happy or unpleasant
D. you talk to the old people
B. the opinion that we should try every means possible to save old people is uncertain
C. old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich
D. medical decisions for old people should be left to the doctors
has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman"s life spent in caring for children. A woman
marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would
be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time
the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further
twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today
women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman"s youngest child will be fifteen when she
is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement
at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and
convenience food.
This important change in women"s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women"s
economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took
a full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the
school- leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry
younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many
more afterwards return to full-time or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage,
with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband
and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to their abilities and
interests of each of them.
B. was considered to be surprisingly long
C. was longer than in previous centuries
D. was shorter than in previous centuries
B. at about twenty-five
C. at any age from fifteen to forty-five
D. soon after they were fifteen
B. would expect to work until she died
C. was usually expected to die fairly soon
D. would be healthy enough to take up paid employment
B. need not worry about food for her children
C. is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselves
D. does not like children herself
Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and brings forth a different answer from every man who
bears these words. Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether
they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable
experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers
and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy
was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.
Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of
father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this
remobilization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently
has literature focused on the role of a father.
It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father"s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great
as the transition the wife must make to the mother"s role. The mother"s role seems to require complete
transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation; on the other hand, the father"s role is less
demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing number of women are
working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.
B. has a different meaning for those who have daughters
C. makes some men feel proud and others uneasy
D. means nothing but more responsibilities
B. make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation
C. stay at home to take care of the baby
D. help her husband in his remobilization process
B. have to make more difficult adaptations
C. have an easier job to do
D. can usually do a better job
sat down at the next table. I couldn"t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman
asked, " So, how have you been?" And the boy, who could not have been more than seven or eight years old,
replied, "Frankly, I"ve been a little depressed lately."
This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far
as I can remember, my friends and I didn"t find out we were "depressed" until we were in high school.
The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don"t seem childlike
anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used
to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no
longer exists, why?
Human development is based not only on innate (天生的) biological states, but also on patterns of access
to social knowledge. Movement from one social role (作用) to another usually involves learning the secrets of
the new status. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: we tell sixth graders
things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation (揭示) machine has been brought in 98 percent of
American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, indiscriminately (不
加区分地). Unable to resist the temptation, many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less
challenging, more vivid moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social
information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbol that must
be memorized and practiced. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
B. naturally and by biological instinct (本能)
C. gradually and under guidance
D. through exposure to social information
B. the poor arrangement of teaching content
C. the fast pace of human intellectual development
D. the constantly rising standard of living
B. It develops children"s interest in reading and writing.
C. It helps children to memorize and practice more.
D. It can control what children are to learn.
B. He thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note.
C. He considers it a positive development.
D. He seems to be upset about it.
