The relations between man and wife are changing．A majority of working women remain in full charge of their home; they come back at night to the cleaning, washing, and cooking that constitute their second career．But more and more husbands are sharing the burden and willingly taking on chores that their fathers would rejected as unmanly, and as too mysteriously difficult anyway．In such cases, man and wife become equal partners, both working outside, both pushing the vacuum cleaner．Actually, the number of husbands who do help that way is much smaller than the number of those who accept the idea in theory．And when the equal partnership is a fact, it doesn’t always work well．The marriage can be destroyed when the wife is more successful in her profession than her husband in his, particularly when she earns more than he does．Sociologists see in this situation one of the main reasons for the increase in the divorce rate—another reason being the husband’s refusal to help with the housework or the care of the children．A third reason could be the growing awareness of the professional woman that she doesn’t have to remain married if she is too unhappy. 1.What is the housework like in the traditional husband’s eyes? A．It’s a mysterious job. B．It’s a little difficult C．It’s women’s job. D．It’s only men’s job. 2.The underlined sentence means________________. A．When man and wife share the housework, man can’t do it well. B．When man and wife share the housework, women can’t do it well. C．when man and wife become equal at home, it doesn’t mean a good marriage. D．when man and wife are equal partners, marriage doesn’t necessarily go well． 3.All of the following statements are true EXCEPT______________． A．more husbands act in helping housework than those agreeing it without action. B．more and more husbands are helping their wives to do housework. C．most of the working women take charge of their house. D．it is possible for the marriage to fail if women earn more money than husbands. 4.What may be the reason for the divorce according to the sociologist? A．The wife refuses to look after the child. B．The wife is more successful than her husband. C．The wife is aware of her unhappiness in marriage. D．Both A and B. 5.The best title of the passage is most likely to be___________. A．Equal Partnership Means Nothing in Modern Family. B．The Changing Relations between Man and Wife. C．Reasons for Increasing Divorce. D．The Relations between Husband and Wife.

It was the summer of 1965．DeLuca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend．Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for his future．“ I’m going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalled saying, “ Buck said, ‘You should open a sandwich shop’.” That afternoon, they agreed to be partners．And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years．After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $ 1,000．DeLuca rented a storefront （店面） in Connecticut, and when they couldn’t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1,000． But business didn’t go smoothly as they expected．DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didn’t know how badly, because we didn’t have any financial control.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs. DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time．Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York．They’d meet on Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running．“We convinced（使…相信） ourselves to open a second store．We figured we could tell the public, ‘We are so successful, we are opening a second store.’”And they did---in the spring of 1966．Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error. But the partners’ learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength．Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers．“It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn’t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca said. And having a goal was also important．“ There are so many problems that can get you down．You just have to keep working toward your goal,” DeLuca adds. DeLuca ended up founding Subway sandwich, the multimillion-dollar restaurant chain. 1.DeLuca opened the first sandwich shop in order to ________________. A．support his family B．pay for his college education C．help his partner expand business D．do some search 2.Which of the following is true of Buck? A．He put money into the sandwich business. B．He was a professor of business administration. C．He was studying at the University of Bridgeport. D．He rented a storefront for DeLuca. 3.What can we learn about their first shop? A．It stood at an unfavorable place. B．It lowered the prices to promote sales. C．It made no profits due to poor management. D．It lacked control over the quality of sandwiches. 4.They decided to open a second store because they____________. A．had enough money to do it. B．had succeeded in their business. C．wished to meet the increasing demand of customers. D．wanted to make people believe that they were successful. 5.What contributes most to their success according to the author? A．Learning by trial and error. B．Making friends with suppliers. C．Finding a good partner. D．Opening chain stores.

Handwriting reveals a great deal about how an individual thinks, since the brain dictate （发号施令） hand movements when a person writes．People who think quickly will write quickly, while people whose thinking is slow will write in the same way．Sometimes we see very elaborate （精致的） handwriting, particularly among public figures, such as actors or politicians, who want to draw attention to themselves．For them, handwriting is like a dress that enables them to stand out from the crowd. The handwriting of someone who is suited to a routine job will appear well organized, clear, and regular, without any special features drawing attention to it．If the job requires proven accuracy, like that of an accountant（会计）, the handwriting, especially the numbers, should be precise．On the other hand, someone in sales or public relations must be self-assured, know how to make a good impression, and be able to befriend people even when meeting them for the first time．The handwriting of such individuals will appear rather large, with elaborate capitals and on oversized signature．It will be quick, fluent, and not necessarily reasonable. Handwriting analysis can be used to find potential behavioral or personality problems．People who are impulsive, aggressive, or dishonest write differently than those who are socially well adapted．Warning signs include broken and strongly or sporadically （零散的） pressured handwriting; disorderly handwriting in which the words run over the lines on the paper, or extremely sharp handwriting．Generally, handwriting that is extreme in any aspect-too small, too weak or too pressured-is suspect. Evidence of medical problems also shows up in a person’s handwriting．Individuals in pain often stop in the middle of writing．Pauses will be visible in the handwriting of people who experience difficulty breathing, because they stop writing to take a breath. Handwriting expresses the mental and physical state of the individual, as well．Depressed people write slowly, with lines sloping （倾斜） down and heavy pressure exerted（施加） on the page．People who are excessively excited will write quickly, and their handwriting will be extremely disorganized and practically unreadable．People who are tired tend to write lines that descend down the page, and their handwriting will appear weak and slow．Healthy and vigorous individual will write energetically, and their handwriting will be quick, rhythmic and fluent. 1.The passage is mainly about _____________. A．what handwriting indicates B．handwriting and personalities C．the relationship between handwriting and the individual D．handwriting analysis and the problems it shows 2.Suppose you are a famous pop star, your handwriting will be in the style of being___________. A．well-organized B．oversized C．elaborate D．sharp 3.If a person writes with a rather large, elaborate capitals and an oversized signature, we can conclude that he is probably a （an） __________. A．famous person B．salesman C．doctor D．accountant 4.If you see disorderly handwriting, you will think that the person who writes it is _______. A．depressed B．vigorous C．slow in thinking D．dishonest 5.According to the passage, a person’s handwriting has something to do with（与……有关） all of the following EXCEPT his______. A．mind B．education C．health D．profession （职业）
