FAMILY LIFE IN THE UNITED STATES

Family life in the United States is changing Fifty or sixty years ago, the wife was called a “housewife” She cleaned, cooked, and cared for the children The husband earned the money for the

family He was usually out working all day He came home tired in the evening, so he did not much housework And he did not see the children very much, except on weekends

These days, however, more and more women work outside the home They cannot stay with the children all day They, too, come home tired in the evening They not want to spend the evening cooking dinner and cleaning up They not have time to clean the house and the laundry So who is going to the housework now? Who is going to take care of the children? Many families solve the problem of housework by sharing it In these families, the husband and wife agree to different jobs around the house, or they take turns doing each job For example, the husband always cooks dinner and the wife always does the laundry Or the wife cooks dinner on some nights and the husband cooks dinner on other nights

help The help may be a babysitter or a day-care center The problem with this kind of help is the high cost It is possible only for couples with jobs that pay well

Parents may get another kind of help fromthe companies they work for Many companies now let people with children work part-time That way, parents can spend more time with their children Some husbands may even stop working for a while to stay with the children For these men there is a new word: they are called “househusbands” In the USA more and more men are becoming househusbands every year

These changes in the home mean changes in the family Fathers can learn to understand their children better, and the children can get to know their fathers better Husbands and wives may also find changes in their marriage They, too, may have a better understanding of each other

A couples with low-paid jobs can’t afford the cost of a babysitter or a day-care center B grandparents can help care the children in a regular way

C all couples with jobs can pay for help from a babysitter or a day-care center D in the past, grandparents did not help the couples with child care

Global emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning jumped by the largest amount on record in 2010 Emissions rose 5.9 percent in 2010, according to an analysis released on Sunday by the Global Carbon Project

it difficult, if not impossible, to stop severe climate change in coming decades

The burning of coal represented more than half of the growth in emissions, the analysis found In the United States, emissions dropped by a remarkable percent in the year of 2009, but rose by over percent in 2010, the new analysis shows

“Each year, emissions go up, and there’s another year of negotiations, another year of indecision,” said Glen P Peters, a researcher at the Center for International Climate and

Environmental Research “There’s no evidence that this path we’ve been following in the last 10 years is going to change.”

Scientists say the rapid growth of emissions is warming the Earth and putting human welfare at long-term risk But their increasingly urgent pleas that society find a way to limit emissions have met sharp political resistance in many countries because doing so would involve higher energy costs

The new figures show a continuation of a trend in which developing countries have surpassed the wealthy countries in their overall greenhouse emissions In 2010, the burning of fossil fuels and the production of cement sent more than nine billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, the new analysis found, with 57 percent of that coming from developing countries

On the surface, the figures of recent years suggest that wealthy countries have made headway in stabilizing their emissions But Dr Peters pointed out that, in a sense, the rich countries have simply exported some of them

The fast rise in developing countries has been caused to a large extent by the growth of energy-intensive manufacturing industries that make goods that rich countries import “All that has changed is the location in which the emissions are being produced,” Dr Peters said

Many countries, as part of their response to the economic crisis, invested billions in programs designed to make their energy systems greener While it is possible, the new numbers suggest they have had little effect so far

43 Many governments in the world resist limiting emissions because _. A it is not the best way to solve such problems

B they don’t realize the risks of carbon emissions

C it would probably harm human welfare in the long run D they are unwilling to accept higher energy costs

44 According to the passage, the report found that the burning coal accounts for _ of the increase in total emissions

A more than half B one-third C only about percent D over percent

45 According to Glen P Peters, we can learn that .

A the rapid growth of emissions contributes to potential risks for humans B rich countries actually take more responsibility for the growth of emissions C human beings will follow the same path of negotiations in the next 10 years

D some countries negotiate together yearly whether to reduce the amounts of emissions 46 The word “urgent” in the passage is closest in meaning to _.

A needful B pressing C related D unsolved

47 The word “go up ” in the passage is closest in meaning to _.

A decline B reduce C fluctuate D increase

48 Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

B Developing countries will produce less emissions with economic development. C There is a long way to go for many countries to limit the fast growth of emissions. D Over 50 percent of the growth in emissions resulted from the burning of fossil fuels. 49 The phrase “On the surface” in the seventh paragraph means most nearly the same as _

A Not thought about deeply or thoroughly B Just the tip of the iceberg

C Judging from what can be seen D To all intents and purposes

50 What is the main idea of this passage?
