Some feel pride when they receive t
29、he 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 lo
30、oking 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, unf
31、ortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this reconciliation (协调) process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of fathers.It is argued by some writers that the change to the fathers role, although dif
32、ficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must take 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, even though we mentioned t
33、he 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：5.00）(1).From the passage, we learn that fatherhoodA. brings a feeling of excitement to most men.B. makes some men feel proud and others uneasy.C. has a dif
34、ferent meaning for men who have daughters.D. means a responsibility that men accept unwillingly.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What does the passage say about the shift from the role of husband to that of father?A. Numerous books have been written about it. B. Not enough attention has been paid to it.C. The s
35、hift is harder for men than for women. D. The shift is a difficult but incomplete one.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The passage indicates thatA. mothers get more attention and recognition from society.B. mothers are innovative and demanding according to some writers.C. mothers generally stay at home to take
36、care of the children.D. mothers should help fathers in their reconciliation process.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the following will the author most probably disagree with?A. Its as difficult to be a father as it is to be a mother.B. More books should focus on the role of fathers.C. The father is st
37、ill the breadwinner in the household.D. Fathers are as important to children as mothers.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The authors purpose in writing this passage is toA. explain why there are few books on the role of fathers.B. praise mothers for their great contributions to the home.C. criticize fathers for
38、 not taking enough responsibility in bringing up the children.D. complain about the lack of social programs to help fathers in their role shift.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十、TEXT B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Imagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion - a world in which human beings could feel on love or happine
39、ss, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefi
40、t from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection
41、among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Societys economic underpinndings (支柱) would be destroyed: since earning $ 10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind. For as we will see, incentvies
42、imply a capacity to enjoy them.In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our
43、 emotions. True, we consider the length, shape, size or texture, but an objects physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us - hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experiences with objects and evers comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are good and others are bad, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our soical life - from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear
