24、Edith Cavell was born in a little English village. She was a clever, hard-working girl and did well at school, especially in music and French. After she left school, her first job was to take care of the children of a rich family in Belgium(比利时). The language they spoke was French, so she found that her school studies were useful. She could understand them easily, at the same time she taught the children to speak English and play the piano.
After hearing that her father was seriously ill, Edith returned home to look after him. She then decided to become a nurse. Afterwards for five years she worked in an English hospital where she proved to be highly professional(专业的)at her job. A Belgian doctor was so impressed(印象深的)that he invited her to his country to organize a training school for nurses. The First World War (第一次世界大战) broke out in 1914 and Edith Cavell’s school of nursing became a hospital. She stayed there to look after the sick and wounded soldiers (伤员). Edith treated them with kindness. Between November 1914 and August 1915 she secretly helped about 200 wounded soldiers and prisoners (囚犯) escape from the Germans. Later the German army found out what Edith had done and they arrested her. Finally, the Germans killed her, but they could not kill her memory.

26、 Once while being prepared for a television interview, I was chatting with the host about stay-at-home fathers. Why are we seeing more stay-at-home dads? I thought maybe it’s because a man doesn’t make more money than his wife. Many families now take earning (赚钱) power into consideration when deciding which parent will stay home.
At that point, one of the members expressed his opinion, “It should be the better parent who stays at home”. A lot of guys say things like that. I was a stay-at-home father for eight years, so what he said made me excited. It showed that our family’s choice could only have been correct if I was a “better” parent than my wife.
I suppose an argument could have been made that when I began staying home my wife was the “better” parent: She had spent more tune with our son, could read him better and calm him more quickly. And if he had a choice, he’d have picked her over me. But as she was the more employable (有人雇佣的) one, my wife went out to work and I looked after our son.
Because of the increased time I spent with him, I soon knew him well, understood what he needed and could look after him more or less as my wife could. Actually, the experience helped me unlock one of the world’s great secrets: Women are good at looking after the children because they do it. It’s not because of a mother’s instinct (本能)—which I think is mostly learned anyway. It’s because they put in the time and attention required to become good at the job.
Women are able to give birth and nurse, but over the long term experience is more important. When I got the experience myself, I was good, too. As good? I don’t know. Who cares? Children are not made of glass. Other people are able to look after them besides Mom.
【1】Which of the following does the first paragraph (自然段) tell us?
A.Men are no longer given the chance to stay at home as they used to.
B.In some families the wives are earning more than their husbands.
C.The writer is telling the readers that he works in the TV station.
D.There are more stay-at-home fathers than stay-at-home mothers.
【2】According to the underlined sentence in the second paragraph, we can infer (推断) that________.
A.the writer thought he made more money than his wife
B.the writer didn’t think he could be a good parent
C.the writer thought he should go out for a job
D.the writer thought he could look after their son, too
【3】The writer decided to stay at home eight years ago because ________.
A.it was easier for his wife to find a job B.he thought he was the better father
C.their son liked him a little bit better D.he was earning more than his wife did
【4】Women are better than men at taking care of children because ________.
A.they spend more time doing it B.they love children and enjoy it
C.they were born with the ability D.they have learned it at school
【5】Which of the following is the writer’s conclusion at the end?
A.He is better than his wife at taking care of children.
B.He isn’t as good as his wife at taking care of children.
C.Either fathers or mothers can take care of children.
D.Both fathers and mothers cannot take care of children.
27、An invention in front of your eyes
What is the most important invention of all time? Is it the written word that helps us to record information? Is it the telephone that lets us talk to people from all over the world? Is it the car that lets us travel at great speeds to meet others? Umberto Eco, an Italian writer, thinks it is something quite different. He says the most important invention might be bright in front of your eyes. He is talking about a simple pair glasses.
Modern eye glasses were invented around 1000 years ago. They were more than just a convenient way to read. Before glasses, writers, scientists or teachers who could not see properly had to memorize everything. After about ten years of poor eyesight, they could not remember well enough and could not work. Glasses meant that people could work in their old age.
People who wanted to remember some information could write it down and read it. Eye glasses are one of the world’s greatest inventions and were probably worn by the people who designed the first telephones and cars.
