It is a different story for mothers.Becoming a parent added about 21 hours a week to a mother's work.Most of this was looking after her baby.New fathers did not do more work because they did not realize the mother was doing so much more.Another reason is that after a baby is born,fathers follow the “traditional” roles.That is,the mother looks after the baby and the father works outside.This happens even when the mother is working the same number of hours in her job.

In the past,falling oil prices have given a boost to the world economy,but recent forecasts for global growth have been toned down(不容乐观),even as oil prices sink lower and lower.Does that mean the link between lower oil prices and growth has weakened? Some experts say there are still good reasons to believe cheap oil should heat up the world economy.Consumers have more money in their pockets when they're paying less at the pump.They spend that money on other things,which stimulates the economy. The biggest gains go to countries that import most of their oil like China,Japan,and India,But doesn't the extra money in the pockets of those countries' consumers mean an equal loss in oil producing countries,cancelling out the gains?Not necessarily,says economic researcher Sara Johnson."Many oil producers built up huge reserve funds when prices were high,so when prices fall they will draw on their reserves to support government spending,and subsidies(补贴) for their consumers." But not al!oil producers have big reserves.In Venezuela,collapsing oil prices have sent its economy into free-fall. Economist Carl Weinberg believes the negative effects of plunging oil prices are overwhelming(压跨)the positive effects of cheaper oil.The implication(牵连)is a sharp decline in global trade,which has plunged(暴跌)partly because oil-producing nations can't afford to import as much as they used to. Sara Johnson acknowledges that the global economic benefit from a fall in oil prices today is likely lower than it was in the past.One reason is that more countries are big oil producers now,so the nations suffering from the price drop account for a larger share of the global economy. Consumers,in America at least,are acting cautiously with the savings they're getting at the gas pump,as the memory of the recent great recession(经济衰退)is still fresh in their mind.And a number of oil-producing countries are trimming their gasoline subsidies and raising taxes,so the net savings for global consumers is not as big as the oil price plunge might suggest.51.What does the author mainly discuss in the passage? ____ A.The reasons behind the plunge of oil prices.B.Possible ways to stimulate the global economy.C.The effect of falling oil prices on consumer spending.D.The impact of cheap oil on global economic growth.52.Why do some experts believe cheap oil will stimulate the global economy? ____ A.Manufacturers can produce consumer goods at a much lower cost.B.Consumers will spend their saving from cheap oil on other commodities.C.Lower oil prices have always given a big boost to the global economy.D.Oil prices may rise or fall but economic laws are not subject to change.53.What happens in many oil-exporting countries when oil prices go down? ____ A.They use their money reserves to back up consumption.B.They suspend import of necessities from overseas.C.They reduce production drastically to boost oi1 prices.D.They try to stop their economy from going into free-fall.54.How does Carl Weinberg view the current oil price plunge? ____ A.It is one that has seen no parallel in economic history.B.It still has a chance to give rise to a boom in the global economy.C.Its negative effects more than cancel out its positive effects.D.Its effects on the global economy go against existing economic laws.55.Why haven't falling oil prices stimulated the global economy as they did before? ____ A.People are not spending all the money they save on gas.B.The global economy is likely to undergo another recession.C.Oil importers account for a larger portion of the global economy.D.People the world over are afraid of a further plunge in oil prices.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
