21、 A Chinese saying goes:Women can hold up half of the sky. Similarly,a large number of women in Western European countries wish that they were born men.The number is said as high as 60% in Germany.
“Women often wish that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it is still men’s world,” said Dr James Holden, one of the scientists who did the study.
Anne Harper has a very good job for an international oil company.She also believes in “Women’s Liberation(解放)”.
“I don’t wish that I were a man,” she says.“And I don’t think many women do.But I do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women.At work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less.There are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones and open only to men.If you’re a man, you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life.How many women pilots are there...or engineers or scientists?”

22、Why Are Plane Seats Always Blue?
Planes are an engineering masterpiece. Since they were invented, they have made the world a better place. Like never before, we can travel to almost every corner of the world within hours.
【1】 The only time they land is when they need to get passengers on board or go through regular checks. This means the crew doesn’t have much time to clean up the plane. 【2】 Airlines are likely to go with dark blue fabric (布料)—it’s much more of a bother to clear up a red wine spill on white fabric than on blue.
Blue is also a color that can make passengers less anxious. If you are an 18-year-old teenager, you are probably not afraid of flying. But the aviation (航空) industry isn’t that old. 【3】 In fact, even today in the 21st century, 5% of the world’s population has ever flown on an airplane, which is extremely low. But that also means, most people are afraid of flying. Some statistics show that around 80 percent of people are scared to fly. 【4】 Compared to other means of transport such as cars, it’s a much safer option.
Anyway, people are afraid of heights. That’s why planes are purposefully designed in such a way to make you feel safe. For example, the color red is associated with objects to remind people of danger or to warn people that they need to stop. Green is used to make people aware of the presence of an emergency exit. 【5】
A.The airline business is expensive.
B.Unlike cars, planes are made to fly all the time.
C.Many airlines redesign or change their seats often.
D.Of course, it doesn’t make sense to be afraid of boarding a plane.
E.As recent as the 2000s, not many people had the opportunity to fly.
F.That’s why the seats must be designed in a way to look clean all the time.
G.But blue is a calm color associated with the positive qualities of trust and peace.

Paris in the springtime was, is and always will be something rather special. Why not experience it for yourself with this excellent break for four days? This attractive city has something to offer everyone and with prices at just £129, it's great value too.
Your break begins with executive coach transfer from regional pickup points and travel to Paris is via cross-channel ferry, arriving at your hotel in the evening. The hotel is an excellent quality one with private facilities in all rooms: satellite TV, radio, telephone and alarm clock.

The tour ends mid-afternoon back in Paris where you will have the remainder of the day at your leisure. In the evening there is a "Paris By Night" tour showing you the beautiful buildings with bright lights.
Day three takes you to Montmartre, perhaps the most picturesque of Paris and home of the Saere Coeur and the Moulin Rouge. In the afternoon you are free to explore this beautiful city as you wish, perhaps a pleasure voyage on the River Seine, wander around the picturesque gardens or look through among the antique shops.

24、Some of the best advice I ever heard was: “Get 3 hobbies, one to keep you physically active, one to express yourself creatively, and one to make you social.” I don’t know if that’s a famous quote but it really inspires me.
Set some physical goals for yourself. Maybe it’s running a marathon, maybe it’s lifting your own body weight, maybe it’s riding a unicycle to work every morning. 【1】 Just having a goal that’s not immediately obtainable but gives you something to work towards will help give you some direction.
【2】 Maybe buy a recorder and learn to play Disney songs, or grab some paints and follow along with a famous painter, or write plays about your dreams, or build tiny furniture. Just something that requires your imagination and creation. Perhaps you’ll never learn how to play that instrument or how to paint. It’s unimportant. 【3】
Finding a hobby is probably the hardest one right now. I would recommend some goal-oriented video games with voice chat. I started playing VR paintball last month, which was incredibly helpful for me. You might also want to look into joining an online Dungeons & Dragons game. 【4】 Chatrooms and forums are fine, but you should make sure you’re using your voice, and hearing other people’s voices.
If you get these hobbies started and set personal goals for yourself in each hobby, you’ll soon start feeling more fulfilled. 【5】 If after about a month you don’t like one, then try switching to a different hobby in the same category. Eventually, you’ll discover something you like.
A.Find a way to be creative.
B.It doesn’t matter what it is.
C.Talk to your children about creation.
D.It is extremely important to have a clear goal.
E.Try to do each hobby for at least 30 minutes a day.
F.Just get started and move onto another if you have to.
G.You need to find something that requires you to actually talk with others.
