For every woman who feels like she's had to scale back her personal ambitions since becoming a mother, gold medal cyclist Kristin Armstrong has a message: Don't give up on your dreams.

She retired after winning gold in Beijing to start a family; son Lucas arrived in 2010, but then she decided to compete again in the London Olympics. She won a gold medal at last.

The decision to start training again wasn't easy. "I struggled with that a lot," she told a newspaper. “At the beginning I felt selfish, I felt like, ‘Well, I'm not supposed to be thinking of myself anymore. It's all supposed to be for my kid.’”

She faced physical challenges of getting back into competition shape after giving birth, as well. When she started racing in the spring of 2011, she was still breast-feeding; she would nurse her son, then race, then breast-feed again after the race. Her days revolved around Lucas and training.

"I feel like I'm able to do what I love to do and still manage a family and have that balance," Armstrong said. "That you have a family or a child doesn't mean that you have to stop going after what you dream of individually.”

Armstrong makes balance look easy, whether it's on her bike or as an athlete-mom. But she points out that you can't have it all without making some sacrifices. For example, don't expect a neat home—her husband, Joe Savola, who she describes as her support system and her "protector", says he's had to give up on trying to keep everything orderly at home and just accept that their living room has become Lucas's playroom. For Armstrong, she's sacrificed time with friends who had kids around the same age—there just wasn't time.

Now, she says, "That sounds like fun to me." As she heads home to Boise, Idaho, she's ready to do regular mom stuff.

1.After Kristin Armstrong retired, she ___.

A. lived an easy life

B. moved to a new house

C. still had a great interest in cycling

D. spent much time with her kid

2.It was difficult for Armstrong to make the decision to participate in the London Olympics because she_______ .

A. was too old to train racing

B. had to give her family much consideration

C. faced big physical challenges

D. could not get support from her family

3.In most days of 2011, Armstrong could be described as ____.

A. a housewife and a new mom

B. an athlete and a career woman

C. a parent and a sportswoman

D. a wife and a good mother

4.We can know from the passage that it ____ for Armstrong to keep a balance between her family and dream.

A. was quite easy B. made her feel tired

C. surprised herself D. was a hard job

Still, no one raised a hand, this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on goes forward at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute without least consideration; he does so with skill and polish(完美): “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may be the right size but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.

Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round". She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

1.According to the passage, a man’s shopping is based on _______.

A. his money B. his hobbies

C. his need D. his friends

2.Why does a lady welcome suggestions from anyone while buying a dress?

A. Because she wants to buy a dress that every one thinks suits her.

B. Because she doesn’t know how to buy a dress.

C. Because she doesn’t know whether to buy it or not.

D. Because she wants to show herself off in public.

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Most men have patience with trying it on while buying a jacket.

B. Most women have a poor sense of value when buying a dress.

C. A woman’s shopping is based on her need.

D. A man doesn’t pay much attention to the price of the clothes he wants to buy.
