    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    　　Sociologists（社会学家）, working in western countries, have found that a large number of women wished they had been born men. The number is said to be as high as 60％ in Germany.

    　　"Women often wish they had the same chances as men have, and think it is still men's world. " said Dr. James Helen, one of the sociologists who did the study.

    　　Many men say that they have more duties than women. A man has to make money to support his family and to make the important decision, so it is right for men to be paid more. Some are even against their wives working at all. When wives go out to work, they say, the home and children cannot be taken good care of. If women take full-time jobs, they won't be able to do what they are best at doing: making a nice home and bringing up the children.

    　　Some women disagree. They say they want to get out of their homes and to have freedom to choose between work and home life. Women have the right of equal pay and equal chances.

    　　Anne Harper has a very good job. She also believes in "Women's Liberation", "I don't wish I were a man," she says, "and I don't think many women do. But I do wish people would stop treating us like second-class people. At work, for example, we usually do the work that men do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs only to men—usually they are the best ones. If you are a man, you have a much better chance of living a wonderful life. How many women scientists are there…or engineers?"

    Many men think ______.

    　　　　A. women can't do what men can

    　　　　B. men have to work much harder than women

    　　　　C. men can make money more easily than women

    　　　　D. women's duty is mainly to do housework at home

    　Some women have different ideas. They say that ______.

    　　　　A. women need chances to go out of the home more often

    　　　　B. women want more freedom in deciding the kind of life they want

    　　　　C. if women are given equal pay, they can do everything instead of men

    　　　　D. women are no longer interested in taking care of their homes

    　　　Anne Harper thought that ______.

    　　　　A. women should live a better life than men

    　　　　B. women should be really liberated

    　　　　C. women should be given better jobs than men

    　　　　D. women should live a more wonderful life than men

    　　Build the highway and watch the town grow.At first a few shops appear and maybe a restaurant.Then a hotel opens. Eventually new house are built. A village is born.

    　　This is also how the virtual world has developed. Think of the Internet as the road carrying information between two computers.Think of the World Wide Web as the village. At first it is just a place on the virtual road where travelers meet. More travelers come bringing new kinds of information. New travelers come bringing new kinds of information.New villages are started.

    　　Every willage has a founder.Tim Berners-Lee is the man who wrote the software programme that led to the foundation of the Word Wide Web.How did he get the idea? He tells us on his own web site. "One of the things computers were not able to do was store in formation from different sources. The dream behind the Web is of a common space in which we communicate by sharing information."

    　　In 1991 his programmmes were placed on to the Internet.Everyone was welcome to use them.

    　　Tim Berners-Lee could have followed the Microsoft route by forming a company to sell the programmes he invented. Or he could have joined another company. But in his view the Web is a language,not a pproduct. Charging a gee for using his programmes would have slowed the growth of the Web.And other companies would make similar products to compete. Instead of one World Wide Web there would be several smaller Webs. Each would use incompatible (不相容的) software. They Web is valuable because it uses a common computer language to reach people and share information. Competing webs would lose this value.Imagine if somebody sent you a bill every time you spoke a world of English.

    　　In 1994 Tim Berners-Lee formed the World Wide Web Consortium,or W3C.More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone, no matter what their equipment or solftware,can work equally on the Web.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    　　Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman．A man goes shopping because he needs something．His purpose is settled and decided in advance．He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration．All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want．If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once．All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction．

    　　For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop doesn't have what he wants．In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else．He offers the nearest he can to the article required．No good salesman brings out such a substitute impolitely; he does so with skill：“I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned．” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is． “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on．”

    　　Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way．Her shopping is not often based on need．She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round” ．She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her．She will try on any number of things．Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her．Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes．They are always on the look－out for the unexpected bargain．Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on．It is a laborious process, but apparently an enjoyable one．Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands．
