第四部分．阅读理解 （共20 小题 满分40 分）
A
As late as 1800, women’s only place was in the home. The idea of woman in the business world was unthinkable. Men were certain that no woman could do a good job outside her home. This was such a widely accepted idea that when the well-known Bronte sisters began writing books in 1864, they had to sign their books with men’s names instead.
Teaching was the first profession (职业) open to women soon after 1800. But even that was not an easy profession for women to enter because most schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to accept women.
Hospital nursing became respectable (值得尊敬的) work for women only after Nightingale became famous. Seeing that she was not only a nurse but also a rich and well-educated woman, people began to believe it was possible for women to nurse the sick and still be “ladies”. Miss Nightingale opened England’s first training school for nurse in 1860.
The invention of the typewriter(打字机) in 1867 helped to bring women out of the home and into the business world. By 1900,thousands of women were working at real jobs in schools, hospitals and offices in both England and America. Some women even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea that women could work in the business world had been accepted.

The eastern Indonesian island of Komodo is proving a hit with adventurous tourists eager to catch a glance of the world’s largest lizard species. The island is the home of the huge lizard called the Komodo dragon.
A later species of the Jurassic period dinosaurs 130 million years ago, the Komodo dragon is in danger and has been placed under protection by the Indonesian government.
The huge lizard is called “Buaya Darat”by the local people who show great respect for the species. Tales handed down over generations of islanders speak of the dragon warning people of getting close to crocodiles.
The animal can reach a length of three meters when fully grown, gain a weight of about 135 kilograms and may live to an age of about 100 years. It digs a hole in the ground as deep as 9 meters and lay eggs---up to 30 at a time---that hatch in April or May. The newly hatched lizards, about 45 centimeters long, live in trees for several months.
Komodo dragons have been known to eat smaller members of the species and sometimes even other grown-ups. The Komodo dragon was first discovered in 1912 by a group of fishermen who protected themselves from a storm in the Banda Sea on the island.
Various species of the Komodo dragons are also found in Asia, Australia and Africa, but it is only on Komodo and the western tip of the neighboring island of Flores that they grow up to three meters long.

Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburb （郊区）. But people in the Australian outback can’t get to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call him on a two-way radio. This special doctor is called the “flying doctor”. He visits sick people by plane.
When someone is very sick, the doctor has to fly to the person’s home. His plane lands on a flat piece of ground near the person’s house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn’t very sick, and the doctor doesn’t have to visit. He can give advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine from a special medicine chest (箱子). There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube （管子） and packet （包） in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this,“take two tablets （药片） from bottle 5 every four hours.”

54. If the person isn’t very sick, the doctor only _________.
A. tells him to have a rest B. tells him what food to eat
C. gives him some advice D. gives him some medicine
55. From the passage we know that_________.

B. every family in the outback has a special medicine chest
C. a “flying doctor”is a man who flies people to hospital
D. there are very few hospitals in Australia
D
In recent years advances in medical technology have made it possible for people to live longer than in the past. New medicines and machines are being developed every day to extend life. However, some people, including some doctors, are not in favor of (不赞成) these life extending measures, and they argue that people should have the right to die when they want. They say that the quality (质量) of life is as important as life itself and that people should not be forced to go on living when conditions of life have become unbearable. They saw that people should be allowed to die with dignity (尊严) and to decide when they want to die. Others argue that life under any conditions is better than death and the duty of doctors is always to extend life as long as possible. And so the battle goes on and on without a definite (明确) answer.
56. The best title for this passage is ___________.
A. The Right to Live B. The Right to Die

How Parents Can Help
Unfortunately, learning does not simply happen. As a mother and ex-teacher, I believe that good education involves not only the pupil and the teacher but also the parents. What, then, is the parents" role?
The atmosphere at home is bound to influence a child"s attitude toward schoolwork. Parents should be positive and notice what their children do well, rewarding success with praise and occasional treats. Under no circumstances should children be made to look foolish for their efforts. Tell a child often enough that he is lazy or stupid and he is likely to become an adult without self-respect. Listening is also vital. Children need to be taken seriously, no matter how unimportant their ideas may appear. It lets them know that their opinions and feelings matter. We must be observant: able to detect physical signs of unhappiness. A child who keeps on complaining of headaches or sickness may well be crying out for help. He may not be up to the work demanded of him. On the other hand, it could be an indication of boredom. On no account should a child feel unable to approach his parents. The lines of communication must be kept open.
At the same time, we can help our children to become more independent, and consequently better learners, by giving them a few regular domestic chores that they can carry out successfully. In their free time, active rather than passive pleasures should be encouraged. In other words, reading is preferable to watching television. Above all, we must set an example. Children, in the end, will do as we do, not as we say. If we take an interest in hobbies, so will our children.
As they grow older, homework must be their responsibility. We can be of most use not by doing it for them (even if we are able to) but by discussing the problem and helping them to approach it in the correct way. In addition, we must insure that the necessary space and equipment are provided. Teenagers need a quiet, well-lit area in which to study, with access to dictionaries and reference books. At this difficult age, although they may not show it, they also need to know that we care.
