Some feel proud

16、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 b

17、een planning and looking forward for 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 dif

18、ficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this re-socialization 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 fa

19、thers role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mothers role. The mothers role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation, on the other hand, the fathers role is less demanding and immediate. However

20、, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the author, being a father_.（分数：2.00）A.brings a feeling of excitement to some menB.has a different meanin

24、 life style in a highly innovative wayB.make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situationC.stay at home to take care of the babyD.help her husband in his re-socialization process(5).Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers,

25、_.（分数：2.00）A.have to shoulder more burdensB.have to make more difficult adaptationsC.have an easier job to doD.can usually do a better jobPeople, in different parts of the world have very different ideas about what is good to eat. Even when people in different countries eat the same food, they often

26、 prepare it very differently. If you were inGermany, you would find soup that is thick and heavy. If you were in China, you would find soup that is thin and clear. On holidays most of us eat special foods. Year after year, even if many other things change, the food is always the same. Sometimes hous

27、ewives begin weeks in advance to prepare the special foods that are traditionally served on certain holidays. People in different parts of the world also have different ideas about what is good to drink. Among the most popular hot drinks are coffee and tea. Coffee is very popular in northern Europe

28、and in theMiddle East. Some people put cream and sugar in their coffee. But in the United States, many people drink their coffee “black“ that is without cream or sugar. Tea is the national drink in China, Japan, and other Oriental(东方的)countries. In the Orient, people drink tea without sugar. But in

32、ountries Like Coffee MostD.Different Ideas about Foods and DrinksThere are many ways to learn about people of other lands. One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different parts of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big

33、 reasons for this. One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils(面纱)to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the

34、 materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man-made materials. Most people inChina wear cotton. The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone

35、 living in India can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs. World-wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim(帽檐)up. InChina, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from t

36、he sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.（分数：10.00）(1).If you want to learn about the differences about people in the world, you( ).（分数：2.00）A.should know the ways to study other landsB.should know the four big reasons given in the passageC.may study the different type
