21、   On a recent night， while I was busy thinking about important social issues， like what to do over the week﹣end and who to do it with， I overheard my parents talking about my future． My dad was upset ﹣ not the usual stuff that he and Mom and， I guess， a lot of parents worry about like which college I' m going to， how far away it is from home． Instead， he was upset about the world his generation is turning over to mine， a world he fears has a dark and difficult future﹣﹣if it has a future at all．

"There will be a disease that kills millions， a disastrous energy crisis， a horrible worldwide depression and a nuclear explosion set off in anger．"

As I lay on the living room couch， listening to their conversation， starting to worry about the future my father was describing， I found myself looking at some old family photos．  There was a picture of my grandfather who was a member of the class of 1942， the war class．  Next to his picture were photos of my great﹣grandparents． Seeing those pictures made me feel a lot better． I believe tomorrow will be better than today ﹣﹣that the world my generation grows into is going Lo get better， not worse． Those pictures helped me understand why．

I considered some of the awful things my grandparents and great﹣grandparents had seen in their lifetimes： two world wars， killer flu， segregation（隔离） ， a nuclear bomb．  But they saw other things， too， better things： the end of two world wars， passage of the civil rights laws．

I believe that my generation will see better things， too﹣﹣that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated． I will see things as incredible to me today as the internet to my father when he was 16．

B. Though the world was full of terrible things， it would get better．

C. All those terrible things that worried the author actually didn't exist．

23、   Across Britain,burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers.But,according to a new study,we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.

Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work.Now,the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labours,they would earn as much as ￡172,000 a year.

The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do,as well as the hours they are working,to determine the figure.This would make their yearly income ￡30,000 more than the Prime Minister earns.

By analysing the numbers,it found the average mother works 119 hours a week,40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime.After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18,it found that,on most days,mums started their routine work at 7am and finished at around 11pm.

To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour,it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on,including housekeeper,part-time lawyer,personal trainer and entertainer.Being a part-time lawyer,at ￡48.98 an hour,would prove to be the most profitable of the“mum jobs”,with psychologist(心理学家)a close second.

It also asked mothers about the challenges they face,with 80 per cent making emotional(情感的)demand as the hardest thing about motherhood.

Over a third of mums felt they needed more training and around half said they missed going out with friends.

The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother’s Day.The emotional,physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending,but children are also sources of great joy and happiness.Investing(投入)in time for parenting and raising relationships is money well spent.

【1】How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?

A.￡30,000. B.￡142,000. C.￡172,000. D.￡202,000.

【2】The biggest challenge for most mothers is from______.

A.emotional demand B.low pay for work C.heavy workload D.lack of training

【3】What is stressed in the last paragraph?

A.Mothers’ importance shows in family all year long.

B.The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.

C.Mothers’ devotion to children can hardly be calculated.

D.Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.

24、The World Health Organization (WHO) said that processed meat may be carcipogenic(致癌). Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat Here are some comments on the website. 

Bill (Australia) I’d rather live a short, pleasant life than a long, unhappy one, denying(拒绝给予) myself tasty food just because some experts say it’s not healthy. We should all enjoy the one life we have ---if I had listened to every piece of health advice I would never go anywhere, eat anything or enjoy life in any way. So, I won’t change my habit. I am going to have bacon sandwich, glass of wine, burger, can of coke whenever I fell like it.

Tim (America) Is meat really as bad as smoking: I don’t think so. According to the WHO 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat. In 2012, 8.2 million people died of cancer worldwide. That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat. I’ll take the chance.

Helen (Switzerland) The WHO doesn’t say that just one bite of meat causes cancer, it is rather saying that people should vary their diet. People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits. They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.

Van (China) Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians ( 素食者). So for your health, the environment and future generations, it is not difficult; it just needs a change of attitude. There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.

【1】What if Bill has to change his habit?

A. He’ll feel unhappy.   B. He’ll live a pleasant life.

C. He’ll go on a diet.   D. He’ll become a vegetarian.

【2】What does Tim think about eating processed meat?

A. Too risky.   B. Fairly safe.

C. Popular worldwide.   D. Very unhealthy.

【3】What may be Helen a response to WHO’s warning?

A. Caring little about it.   B. Eating whatever she likes.

C. Varying the diet and doing exercise.   D. Taking a diet without meat.

【4】Who have the most similar viewpoints?

A. Bill and Tim.   B. Tim and Helen.

C. Helen and Van.   D. Bill and Van.
