【題目】閱讀下列材料,然后按要求完成材料后面的三個小題。
Dear Doctor,
My husband and I got married in 1990 and for the first ten years of our marriage, I was very happy to stay home and bring up our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work.
My husband agreed and helped me to make my decision. He said he thought I could be a great success in business. After several weeks of job hunting, I found my present job—working for a small public company. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, “My clever little wife can run that company.”
But as his joke was becoming true, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions (升職) and pay increases, and I can earn more money than he can. I can buy my own clothes and new car.
But things begin to change. My husband is not happy. My husband is very unkind to me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think our marriage may come to an end. I love my husband very much, and I don't want him to feel bad, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how. Can't you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?
Please help me.
Mary
(1)According to the passage, when was the letter most probably written?
The letter was written after.
(2)What does the phrase in paragraph two “job hunting” mean?
“Job hunting” means .
(3)What is the dilemma(兩難)of the working woman?
【答案】
(1)2004
(2)looking,for,jobs
(3)She can't decide to choose her husband or her career.
【解析】本文是一封求助信,講述作者婚后的工作收入比丈夫高,這使得丈夫的不舒服,因此他們的婚姻陷入困境,作者只好寫信尋求幫助,希望能夠解決既留住丈夫又能留住工作的難題。
(1)推理判斷。根據(jù)文章第一段My husband and I got married in 1990 and for the first ten years of our marriage, I was very happy to stay home and bring up our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work.可知,作者1990年結(jié)婚,結(jié)婚頭十年留在家里,養(yǎng)育三個孩子,四年前最小的孩子上學(xué)了,作者回去上班。所以這封信應(yīng)該是在2004年以后寫的。故填2004.
(2)詞義猜測。根據(jù)第二段第三句中I found my present job(我找到我目前的工作)可知,劃線詞的意思是“尋找工作”。故填looking for jobs.
(3)歸納概括。根據(jù)第四段最后一句Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?(我只能選擇其中之一嗎?或者我能同時留住我的丈夫并且繼續(xù)我新的職業(yè)生涯?)可知,作者作為一名職業(yè)女性兩頭為難,不知道是該選擇丈夫還是事業(yè),故填She can't decide to choose her husband or her career.

【題目】I like travelling very much. 【1】 They are wonderful adventures filled with new sights and experiences. And my wife and I have another trip in the planning stages.
We're home now and have settled back into our daily routine of life. 【2】 I find that when I am at home, particularly for a while when we have just returned from a trip, I feel very comfortable. Perhaps it is because everything around me is familiar and the daily routine is so much the same and I can move through it almost without thinking. 【3】 Perhaps it is because we can have meals at home instead of always being in restaurants, although it's nice to let someone else do the cooking, and because I can sleep in my own bed. There are times I think it would be nice to simply stop travelling and stay home.【4】
Yet I guess I am probably a restless soul because I know that after I have been home for a while I will start to think about other places we might go and other things we want to see. 【5】 We will travel again and we feel fortunate to be able to do so. Still, one of the best things about travelling for me is coming home. I'm very comfortable here at home even if it is difficult to say exactly why.
A. I enjoy local food while travelling.
B. I like being home,for whatever reason.
C. Perhaps it is because our friends are here.
D. And I enjoy my daily life at home so much.
E. It’s lucky that my wife and I both love travelling.
F. The world is filled with people who are travelholic.
G. I have been fortunate enough to make trips to many countries.
