Should you stay at home to look after your child，or return to work?
Maybe you don’t have the option.Combining work and motherhood is an issue faced by increasing numbers of women every day.
New research for the Institute for Economic and Social Research could solve this quandary once and for all.In short，it concludes that going back to work after the birth of a child can have a negative impact on the child’s development—unless you have lots of money.
“Growing up in a family in which the mother chooses to work appears to have some adverse consequences for children’s welfare，” the research says.However，it adds that extra money brought in by both parents can reduce the negative effect.The negative effect is also less apparent in children of bettereducated mothers.
The research by John Ermisch and Marco Francesconi is especially downbeat about welfare to work programmes，and especially，the prospects for the children of some single parents.
“It is hard to see anything but gloomy (阴暗的) prospects for the children of single parents (who are generally poor)，” the researchers said.This is because in a common family where both parents work，extra money brought in by the mother’s working would compensate for less time spent with the children.
In contrast，the researchers said the effects of paternal (父亲的) employment were far more modest，but this did not mean that fathers had no role in shaping their children’s welfare.Money brought in by the father would be a major resource for helping children develop.
The research says，however，that before parents get too carried away by worrying about working，there are more important issues facing a child’s development.Parents’ personalities and emotional stability，parenting practices，and the friends and networks that children experience while growing up will be much bigger factors than whether their mothers work.
小题1:The extra money brought in by both parents________.| A．plays different roles in shaping a child’s welfare | | B．can reduce the negative effect on a child | | C．has negative effect on a child’s development | | D．may damage the life of children |
小题2:The researchers would agree that________.| A．mothers should keep a balance between work and family life | | B．the more money mothers make，the worse their children will be | | C．mothers should make as much money as they can | | D．it would be better for mothers to be with children at home |
小题3:We can conclude from the passage that________.| A．it doesn’t matter how much money a father brings home | | B．education is the only factor in shaping a child’s welfare | | C．money made by mothers can also contribute to a child’s wellbeing | | D．mothers’ income can have a deeper effect on a child’s development |
小题4:What can we learn from the last paragraph?| A．Whether mothers work is not worth considering. | | B．The research shows family stability is important. | | C．Parents should stop worrying about working. | | D．More important factors are involved in a child’s development. |

When I was 12，all I wanted was a signet(图章) ring.They were the “in” thing and it seemed every girl except me had one.On my 13th birthday，my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it.I was in heaven.
What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn’t being “replaced”．We’d been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the “new” stuff(东西) we got was really just to replace what we’d lost.But not my ring.My ring was new.
Then，only one month later，I lost it.I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning.I was sad and searched everywhere for it.But it seemed to have disappeared.Eventually，I gave up and stopped looking for it.And two years later，we sold the house and moved away.
Years passed，and a couple of moves later，I was visiting my parents’ when Mum told me that she had something for me.It wasn’t my birthday，nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other giftgiving occasion.Mum noticed my questioning look.“You’ll recognize this one，” she said，smiling.
Then she handed me a small ring box.I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside.
The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations，which included replacing the carpets.When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom，they found the ring.As it had my initials carved into it，they realized who owned the ring.They’d had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother.
And it still fits me. (2013·福建，A)

Credit cards let people buy things now and pay for them over months or even years.But some people get deep into debt：Some banks have terms and charges that can make it harder for people to pay off that debt.In the United States，there are calls for stronger government supervision of the credit card industry.They_offer_economic_power_at_a_price.In 2004，Americans had about $800 billion in credit card debt.Now they own about $968 billion.
Critics say banks made it too easy to get credit cards.But that may be changing.The crisis in the housing and credit they call markets is beginning to affect the credit card industry.More payments are late.Charges for late payments are a growing source of profit for banks.But late payments can also signal bad debts.
The central bank，the Federal Reserve，says twothirds of American banks have recently reported tighter lending requirements.Many people report having their credit limits reduced without warning.
Some lawmakers are concerned that cardholders do not have enough protections from what abusive policies.These include actions like raising interest rates because of an unrelated event.Also，banks may raise the chances of a late payment by changing monthly payment dates for credit cards.
According to a survey,82% of Americans think credit cards provide a valuable service.But a majority,58%，say they do not trust credit card companies.And three out of four think the government should regulate the industry more closely.Three out of four people feel there is always some condition that makes a card less appealing than the company made in scared.And a little more than half say they have had a card that was not as good as they expected.But close to 80% say no one really reads the terms and conditions when they sign up for a credit card.
小题1:What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph probably mean?| A．We can enjoy more convenience using credit cards. | | B．Credit cards can improve our buying power. | | C．We can buy things at lower prices using credit cards. | | D．Credit cards bring more card debt as well as convenience. |
小题2:Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?| A．Banks are making it harder for people to get credit cards. | | B．Some people’s credit limits have been reduced. | | C．It is more difficult to borrow money from some banks. | | D．Banks are receiving more charges from late payments. |
小题3:What can we know from the text?| A．Banks actually prefer to see more late payment. | | B．People should be more careful when applying for a credit card. | | C．The US government provides better protection for cardholders. | | D．The majority of Americans don’t think much of credit cards. |

How many times have you got upset because someone wasn’t doing his job，because your child isn’t behaving？How many times have you been irritated (恼怒的) when you’ve planned something carefully and things didn’t go as you’d hoped?
This kind of anger and irritation happens to all of us—it’s part of the human experiences.
One thing that irritates me is when people talk during a movie，or cut me off in traffic.Actually，I have a lot of these little annoyances—don’t we all？And it isn’t always easy to find peace when you’ve become upset or irritated.
Let me tell you a little secret to finding peace of mind：see_the_glass_as_already_broken.
See，the cause of our stress，anger and irritation is that things don’t go the way we like，the way we expect them to.Think of how many times this has been true for you.And so the solution is simple：expect things to go wrong，expect things to be different than we hoped or planned，expect the unexpected to happen.And accept it.
One quick example：on our recent trip to Japan，I told my kids to expect things to go wrong—they always do on a trip.I told them，“See it as part of the adventure.”
And this worked like a charm.When we inevitably (不可避免地) took the wrong train on a foreignlanguage subway system，or when it rained on the day we went to Disney Sea，or when we took three trains and walked 10 blocks only to find the National Children’s Castle closed on Mondays...they said，“It’s part of the adventure！” And it was all OK—we didn’t get too bothered.
So when the nice glass you bought inevitably falls and breaks some day，you might get upset.But things will be different，if you see the glass as already broken，from the day you get it.You know it’ll break some day，so from the beginning，see it as already broken.Be a timetraveler，or someone with timetraveling vision，and see the future of this glass，from this moment until it inevitably breaks.And when it breaks，you won’t be upset or sad—because it was already broken，from the day you got it.And you’ll realize that every moment you have with it is precious.
小题1:The author would probably agree that________.| A．we should control our anger and irritation | | B．we must get well prepared for the future | | C．optimism can help us overcome our anger and irritation | | D．anger and irritation is a natural part of our life |
小题2:The purpose of the author is to________.| A．tell us his own experience in life | | B．advise us how to find peace of mind | | C．tell us a happy trip he took with his children | | D．ask us to see things from both sides |
小题3:By the underlined part (in Para.4)，the author tells us to________.| A．get ready for the worst result of things | | B．enjoy the process of things | | C．expect little from life | | D．find the relationship between cause and effect |
小题4:We can learn from the passage that the author________.| A．often gets angry in his life | | B．can adjust his state of mind accordingly | | C．always expects others to act in his way | | D．always suffers from his anger and irritation |
