Modern society cannot well do without the contribution that women can make in the professions and other kinds of work. There is a serious shortage of nurses and teachers, to mention only two of the occupations followed by women. It is a waste to give years of training at public expense only to have the qualified teacher or nurse marry after a year or two and be lost forever to her profession. The training, it is true, will help her in her duties as a mother, but if she continued to work, her service would be more widely useful. Many factories and shops, too, are largely staffed by women, many of them married. While here the question of training is not so important, industry and trade would be seriously short of staff if married women did not work.
We can see then that there are good reasons for regarding it as desirable that married women should have some occupation outside the home. However, there are serious objections. Schools do not keep children occupied the whole day and school holidays are long. The mother’s working day will almost certainly end well after the school day and her holiday will not begin at the same time as her children’s. There will be therefore a period when children are not taken care of unless a substitute for the mother can be found, or unless it becomes more generally possible for women to work part-time. There seem to be some grounds for believing that there is more bad behavior among the children of working mothers than among those of mothers who stay at home, but more evidence is required before we can be certain of this. What we can be certain of, however, is that many more will continue to do so.
【小題1】According to the writer, women nurses and teachers ought to carry on their occupation after marriage because______.
| A．they are not allowed to give up their jobs |
| B．their training should not be wasted |
| C．they want to make a living by themselves |
| D．they must still improve themselves as mothers |
| A．schools keep children occupied the whole day |
| B．their mothers change their occupation |
| C．their mothers do not work full time |
| D．their mothers should stay at home |
| A．if someone takes over the mother’s occupation |
| B．if no mother works all day |
| C．if no one takes care of the children for the mother |
| D．if someone takes care of the children for the mother |
| A．possibly less than | B．a(chǎn)bout the same as |
| C．a(chǎn) little greater than | D．certainly more than |
You may know your mother, but how well do you really know Mother’s Day? Cards, flowers, sales, TV specials, and a day off for someone who really deserves it ---- those are what probably come to mind for many people when they think of Mother’s Day. But there’s more to the story.
The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations were held during spring in ancient Greece. The celebrations honored Rhea, the Mother of the gods. During the 1600’s, England celebrated a day called Mothering Sunday. On this day even servants were given the day off to spend with their families. A mothering cake was even served with the family meal.
In the US, Mother’s Day began in 1872 when Julia Ward Howe, who wrote the words to the famous song The Battle Hymn of the Republic, suggested it as a day devoted to peace. But it didn’t really become popular until 1907 when Anna Jarvis stared a campaign to honor mothers. She believed that mothers could help people get over the pain they experienced during the Civil
War. The US isn’t alone in devoting a day to mothers. Many other countries including Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, Japan, and Belgium also honor their mothers in May. Other countries honor their mothers at different times of the year.
Learning more about Mother’s Day and celebrating Mother’s Day are important, but probably not as important as understanding what your own mother, or grandmother, or aunt has really done for you. And that will certainly be appreciated more than one day in a year.
1.What is the passage mainly about?
A. The reason why people celebrate Mother’s Day. B. The ways people honor mothers.
C. The history of Mother’s Day. D. The great contribution of mothers.
2.Where was the earliest Mother’s Day celebrated?
A. In ancient Greece. B. In the US. C. In England. D. In Italy.
3.We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. Rhea is the mother of a king in ancient Greece
B. not all the countries celebrate Mother’s Day in May
C. only mothers were given a day off on Mothering Sunday
D. it was in 1872 that Mother’s Day really came into being
4.The last paragraph tells us that _____.
A. all the people should celebrate Mother’s Day
B. only mothers are honored on Mother’s Day
C. understanding mothers’ work is more important than just celebrating Mother’s Day
D. people should celebrate Mother’s Day every day
Mark Twain was a great writer. He was from the USA. He was born in 1835. He was also a famous speaker. He was famous for his sense of humour. Many people liked to listen to him talk because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time.
One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes(蚊子) in the town and told him that he’d better not go there. Mark Twain waved (搖動) his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. I don’t think they will come to visit me.”
After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. He went into his room, but when he was just about to have a rest, quite a few mosquitoes flew about him. The waiters felt very sorry about that. “I’m very sorry, Mr. Mark Twain. There are too many mosquitoes in our town.” One of them said to him.
