Passage 1、
There was once an ant that was very thirsty.
It ran here and there looking for some water but could not find any.
Then suddenly, when the ant was almost ready to die of thirst, a large drop of water fell on it.
The ant drank the water, which saved its life.
The water was actually a tear from a young girl who was crying. Because of her sadness, the tear had magical qualities and suddenly the ant could speak the
language of human beings.
The ant looked up and saw the young girl sitting in front of a huge pile of seeds.
"Why are you sad?" asked the ant.
"I'm the prisoner of a giant." the girl told the ant. "He won't let me go until I've made three separate heaps of grain, barley（大麦）and rye（黑麦）out of this huge pile of seeds in which they are all mixed together."
"That will take you a month!" the ant said, looking at the huge pile of seeds.
"I know," the girl cried, "and if I haven't finished by tomorrow, the giant will eat me for his supper!"
"Don't cry," the ant said, "my friends and I will help you."
Soon thousands of ants were at work, separating the three kinds of seeds.
The next morning, when the giant saw that the work had been done, he let the girl
go.
Thus it was one of her tears that saved her life.

问题16得2 分，满分2 分Passage 2、
The mass media influences all aspects of our lives, including the learning of gender roles. Newspapers and magazines, television, and film all have an influence
on how we view the roles of women and men and on how we think they should
behave.
Four decades ago, traditional women’s magazines such as Good Housekeeping and Family Circle talked to women as though they were children who needed to learn the basics of how to care for their families. Today, magazines do not do this.
However, they still tend to define the female role in terms of homemaking and
motherhood, and to offer beauty advice to help women attract men and please
husbands. There are now a few less traditional magazines such as Ms. that show
women in a range of roles and that cover a much wider range of topics.
Television commercials have also, until recently, presented women primarily as sex objects and as housewives. Young sexy women were shown admiring older men who smoked a particular cigarette brand. Housewives were shown smiling joyfully
about their clean bathrooms, or looking guilty for not using the right laundry soap to
wash their husband’s clothes. These days advertisers are more careful about the
way they present women, and they are presented in a variety of roles. However, it is
still quite common to see advertisements where beautiful young women are dressed
in sexy clothes to sell cars or other products. One study also found that the changes
are mainly on nighttime television, with daytime commercials still tending to portray
women doing household chores.
Prime-time television programs also often used to stereotype women. In past decades, women were usually portrayed as lovers, as mothers, or as weak, passive
girlfriends of powerf ul, effective men. Today’s TV programs are somewhat different.
Women are more likely to be presented as successful and able to support
themselves and their families, but the traditional stereotypes of women are still there.
Even when women are depicted as career women, the storylines suggest that they
should be sexy as well.

问题21得2 分，满分2 分Passage 3
Great changes have been made in family life because of science and industry.
In the past, when more Americans lived on farms, the typical family had many children. In a farm family, parents and their children often lived with grandparents.
Often, too, uncles and aunts lived nearby. But when industry became more important than agriculture in American life, families became smaller because industry requires
workers who are ready and able to move off the land and to move again whenever
necessary. And large families can not be moved from place to place as smaller
families can. So, at present people tend to have smaller families.
In the future, because of industrialization, a typical family will be required to move even more often than now, so families will be even smaller. The typical family may
remain childless and consists only of a man and a woman. A small number of
families may take child raising as their chief work. At the same time they may also
raise other people's children, leaving those families free to move from job to job.

问题26得2 分，满分2 分Passage 4、
When John and Victoria Falls arrived in New York City for one-year stay, they did not bring very many things with them. They had planned either to live in a
furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new
system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed,
tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America's fastest growing businesses.
What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them?
People who are international business or government officials, foreign students,
airline workers, young married couples — people whose job or business may force
them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the
cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they
reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap
furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough
money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better
quality furniture than they could afford to buy.
One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new
things. But usually people don't like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home
furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.
