ASK LASKAS
YOU’VE GOT QUESTIONS. SHE'S GOT ANSWERS
My children go to a primary school where they are not allowed to play football in the playground for fear that a child might be hurt. Besides, now the school says there must be no homework because the local secondary school can't keep up with the amount of homework given in the primary school. Can the school do this?   Puzzled Dad
It can't if enough parents do something about it. It is not just schools. We live in a society which wishes to get rid of risk. However, schools should have a little common sense and courage. Children need risk if they arc to grow up self-sufficient and confident. They need homework, too, if they are to fulfill their academic potential. Complain, loudly.
I have a beautiful teenage daughter who spends an hour making up her face in front of the mirror every day. I tell her to go easy. She just gets mad or bursts into tears. How can I make her understand she's beautiful the way she is.      Plain Mom
You can't. Your daughter is at the age when she's trying to look beautiful, trying on new masks. And if her friends all dress up as she does, you're in for an extra hard time. Support her and tell her she's beautiful — even if she looks ridiculous for now. Then invite her to join you for a day at a spa. Let her try various looks until she's comfortable in her own skin.
【小題1】Why are the children not allowed to play football in the playground?

A.The school is afraid that children might be injured.
B.The school is not sensible and confident.
C.The children don't have enough time to do homework.
D.The children may fail to fulfill their academic potential.
【小題2】What disturbs Plain Mom is that her daughter______.
A.becomes mad B.cries a lot
C.spends much time before the mirrorD.is not beautiful enough
【小題3】The solution to Plain Mom's problem is to______.
A.make her daughter look less ridiculousB.let her daughter dress up like her friends
C.make her daughter go to a spa every weekD.let her daughter feel herself what beauty is
【小題4】What does the underlined word spa mean?
A.a(chǎn) place where water with minerals in itB.a(chǎn) place where people can relax
C.a(chǎn) beauty salonD.a(chǎn) swimming pool

Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman

Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's most famous work, might be updated, 200 years on.

Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters. Here's my own suggestion. . .

It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.

" My dear husband," said his hopeful wife one day, " have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?"

Her dull and indifferent (漠不關(guān)心的) husband replied that he had not. "But it is, it is," she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-Husband made no reply.

"Don't you want to know her plans?" she cried with some impatience.

"Well, clearly you think it matters to your silly little head. .. so I'd better listen. "

"Well, my dear, the rumour (傳言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me. She will move in herself next month. " "What is her name?" "Bingley. "

"Is she married or single?"

"What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. " "How so? How can it possibly affect them? "

"My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "

" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. "

" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. "

" Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "

And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company.

... It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more "female" dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀談) with influential figures.

1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Austen was born 200 years ago.

B.Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.

C.Austen's success lies in her wisdom.

D.Austen's updated work gains popularity.

2.The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ____.

A.had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley

B.felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley

C.was extremely anxious to meet Bingley

D.had a great curiosity about Bingley

3.In the eyes of Mrs Bennet, Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ____.

A.get married to                          B.work for her

C.help her move in                        D.take over her store

4.What does the writer intend to tell us?

A.Women with brains can also be as successful as men.

B.Women have to pay a high price for success.

C.A judgment must be made free from prejudice.

D.Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.
