Women in business were unheard of. No respectable woman would dream of entering what was strictly a “man's world”. Even if she would, what could she do? Men were sure that no woman could do a job well outside her home. This was a widely-accepted idea. When the famous Bronte sisters began writing books in 1846, they had to resort to using men's names as aliases.Teaching was the first profession opened to women, soon after 1800. But even that was not easy for women to take because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to take in women.Nursing was regarded as a respectable profession for women only after Florence Nightingale won high credit for her nursing career and became famous. Miss Nightingale opened the first training school for nursing in 1860 in England.The invention of typewriters in 1867 helped to bring women out of their homes to join the business world. Because women are careful and have nimble fingers, businessmen found that they were well suited to this kind of work.By 1890, tens of thousands of women were working in schools, hospitals, shops, offices, and factories both in England and the States. Some even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea of women working in business and other circles was accepted.（1）Oberlin College was the first college in America ________.A.where teaching was a profession only open to womenB.where girls could get advanced educationC.to train women to be teachers and nursesD.to accept women only as professors and students（2）It can be inferred from the text that besides nursing, Florence Nightingale was also ________.A.a doctorB.a lawyerC.a teacherD.a businessman（3）Quite a lot of women entered the business world ________.A.soon after 1800B.when Nightingale became famousC.at the beginning of this centuryD.after the typewriter came into being（二）A few weeks ago, I sat with a California farmer named Dave Ribeiro. I asked him what he wished to know about farmers. He smiled and said, "That we walk among you. We look like you and talk like you. We have advanced degrees and hobbies, just like you."Take Dave for example: He's a young man with a music degree. And if you walked past him on the street, you'd never think, "There goes a farmer."Is someone like Dave who you picture when you think of a farmer? Probably not. I think that most people would picture a man in his overalls(工作服). I can tell you, that does not represent Dave or any of the many other farmers I have gotten to know.Not only do we have to throw out our previous impression of farmers, but farming as a whole doesn't look much like it used to either. We recently sent a team out to see what modern farming looks like, and they found farmers to be completely different from our usual ideas about them and also came across them in some unexpected places.In a parking lot in a neighborhood of Brooklyn, they met a new crop of young farmers who were trying to bring fresh greens closer to eaters in the city by growing them in high-tech indoor vertical(垂直的) farms. In a Florida field under the fight path of an airport, they discovered farmers with university degrees growing plants that might someday fuel our cars. And in a modern farm in California, they observed how farmers were using technology to take the best possible care of their animals.These farmers all spend their days in very different ways—none of them looks like the previous farmer we have in our mind—but they're all working on new ways to feed our planet. Not only do we need to change our idea of what farming looks like, but we also need to change our view of where solutions can come from. Feeding all of us is going to take all of us working together.（1）How does Dave describe today's farmers? （）A.They often walk on the street.B.They are leading a very busy life.C.They are similar to ordinary people.D.They have little time to make friends.（2）How does the author think most people see farmers? （）A.They usually wear overalls.B.They have interesting hobbies.C.They are skilled at growing crops.D.They know modern farming practices.（3）What was the purpose of the team? （）A.To deepen connections among farmers.B.To study different technologies in farming.C.To find the new developments of modern farming.D.To encourage farmers to use new farming method.（4）What do the farmers mentioned in Paragraph 5 have in common? （）A.They all work in the city.B.They all use high technology.C.They all do hard physical work.D.They all work with universities.四、任务型阅读（共5分）As spring comes to half the world, many people can enjoy the new growth that comes with warmer weather. This is a great time to get outside and get dirty! ________ This outdoor activity gives us beautiful plants, pleasant smelling flowers and fresh fruits and vegetables. Moreover, it also gives us many health benefits.Gardening reduces loneliness. It connects people. When you are gardening, you are outdoors.________ Gardeners usually enjoy showing people what they are growing. And most enjoy sharing advice and stories about their gardens.Gardening is a great activity to do with children. It gets them outdoors and off computers, televisions and other electronics. ________ Gardening can teach a child about where food comes from and healthy eating. It can also help them to understand the limits of natural resources.________ This means you are getting vitamin D which helps your bodies take in calcium(钙). That is necessary to keep bones strong. When you garden you must move around. All the different movements needed for gardening—bending, stretching and lifting—work small muscles in the body.Gardening may help your brain stay young. In one study, researchers found that gardening could lower the risk of future dementia(痴呆) by 36 percent. ________ A flower and herb garden can help feed bees and butterflies. Growing herbs and flowers connects you to nature are pleases all of your senses.A. Vitamin D also helps us fight diseases.B. Children can learn about nature and wildlife.C. Gardening is popular in many parts of the world.D. So it is a perfect time to communicate with your neighbors.E. Some people may not have the resources to have their own garden.F. When you are in your garden, you might feel the sunshine on your skin.G. Gardening can also give you the feeling that you have done something good.五、语法填空（共14分）1.To ________ satisfaction, both of us finally finished homework before the deadline.2.She ________ (comment) that it was a better play than usual, and I agreed with her opinion.3.It was obvious that Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen became the focus ________media attention.4.You can't satisfy everybody. If the majority ________（satisfy）your decision ,that's OK.5.—Do you regret ________(bring) up your opinion that every child should take part in service learning?—No. On the contrary, I think it is very necessary.6.My brother ________（prefer）singing ________ dancing while I would rather dance than sing.六、书面表达（共25分）请根据下面的内容，写一篇幽默故事。
