18、 is responsible for the work in the garden. When they go out in the evening, they often ask me to look after their children.Judy s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, lived in another city.

19、 April Mr. Morris died. Now that Mrs. Morris was quite alone, I expected that Judy would want her to come and live with them. One day, Margaret told me grandma was coming to live with them and her daddy and mummy would want my room back. The news didn t surprise me and the next day I went to Judy an

20、d asked her about it. I said I couldn t think of living in their basement room any longer if it was needed for Mrs. Morris. Judy seemed surprised at first. Then she told me there was no need for me to move, for they hadn t yet come to any decision about her mother coming to live with them. “ Natural

21、ly I m worried about my mother. She has been in poor health. “ She smiled sadly and added. “To be honest, Andrew and my mother have never got on well. We 11 wait a bit and see what happens. Perhaps Mother will be all right living herself, or perhaps they will both change their minds. “That was six m

22、onths ago. During this time I ve heard that Mrs. Morris has had two illnesses and that her health has got worse. A nursing home was mentioned once but Mrs. Morris refused to go there.

27、?（A）Family Relationships inCanada（B） The Boarder（C） My Landlady（D）Nursing Homes and the Aged45 Overhead bridges are found in many parts of Beijing, especially in places where traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians to cross roads

28、 safely. Overhead bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more efficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traf

29、fic. However, when they cross a busy road usinga zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.The government ofBeijing has spent a large amount of money on building these bridges. For th

30、eir own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.Ov

31、erhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.46 What is the advantage of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage?（A）They are safer for pedestrians and can keep traffic movi

32、ng at the same time（B） Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city（C） Taller trucks can pass under them（D）They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians47 Why were overhead bridges built in Beijing?（A）Because they save money for the government（B） Because they provide an easy way fo

33、r the drivers to cross the road（C） Because they prevent traffic from being held up（D）Because they save time for the pedestrians48 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?（A）Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy（B） Overhead bridges are only found in th

34、e centre ofBeijing（C） Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities inChina（D）Overhead bridges are found in every part of Beijing49 The underlined part “a zebra crossing“ probably means_（A）a safe place across a road forolder people to rest in（B） a wild animal fromAfrica that looks like a ho

35、rse with broad dark brown and white stripes on its body（C） a safe place across a road for zebras to walk across the road（D）a safe place across a road for pedestrians to walk across the road50 What is the writer s attitude towards overhead bridges?（A）It is inconvenientfor older people to walk across

36、the road（B） To build overhead bridges is the business of the government（C） An overhead bridge is more beautiful than a zebra crossing（D）It is much safer for pedestrians though climbing up and down the steps may be a little difficult50 There was a time when, if a lady got onto a crowded bus or train,

37、 a gentleman would immediately stand up and offer her his seat. No more, though. Today, a gentleman will probably look out of the window, or, if he feels a bit guilty, hide behind his newspaper. Either way, the lady will have to stand until someone else gets off.You can t entirely blame men for this

38、 change in manners. The days are gone when women could be referred to as the weaker sex. A whole generation of women has grown up demanding equality with men: not just equality in jobs or education, but in social attitudes. Hold a door open for some women and youre likely to get an angry lecture on

39、treating women as inferiors(能力低下的人)unable to open door for themselves. Take a girl out for a meal and she 11 probably insist on paying her share of the bill: though on second thoughts perhaps that s not such a bad idea.It s no wonder, then, that men have given up some of the gestures of politeness a

40、nd consideration which they used to show towards women. On the other hand, automatic male(men)politeness is perhaps slowly being replaced by true consideration for the needs of women, so that men can see women as equal human beings.Maybe that s worth standing in the bus or train.51 Today, when a lad

41、y gets on a crowded bus or train, a gentleman would probably_.（A）stand up and offer her his seat（B） read his newspaper（C） look out of the window（D）not stand up and offer her his seat52 What men do towards women on a crowded bus or train is_ .（A）really bad（B） strange enough（C） not entirely wrong（D）en

42、tirely wrong53 The new generation of women wants to be _.（A）treated not as the weaker sex（B） treated as the weaker sex（C） cared for on buses and trains（D）better treated than before54 According to the passage, which of the following isNOT correct?（A）Some women may get angry if you open the door for t

43、hem.（B） Girls dont want you to pay for meal at all.（C） Some women may criticize you if you show too much politeness to them.（D）A girl may be unhappy if you insist on paying her share of the bill.55 Fromthis passage, we know that_.（A）women need true consideration of their needs and feelings（B） men ha

44、ve given up some politeness they used to show to women（C） women often get angry if you re polite to them（D）women should stand in the bus or train55 “Family“ is of course an elastic word. But when British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of “family“ in its narr

45、ow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together in their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life.For both the man and the wo

46、man, marriage means leaving one s parents and starting ones own life. The man s first duty will then be to his wife, and the wife s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibility a

47、nd theirs alone. Neither the wife s parents nor the husband s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles, have any right to interfere with them they are their own masters. Readers of novels like Jane Austen sPride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families was

48、arranged by the girl s parents, that is, it was the parents duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry(嫁妆). It is very different today. Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their
