A
You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams (1860-1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Rachel Carson (1907-1964)
If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness(意识) of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans. Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)
When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and in 1981, the first woman to join the U. S. Supreme Court(最高法院). O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court. Rosa Parks (1913-2005)
On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott(抵制). It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.
21. What is Jane Addams famous for in history? A. Her social work.
B. Her teaching skills. D. Her community background.
C. Her efforts to win a prize.

C. Sandra Day O’Connor.

Dear Students,
I am honored to be your guest.
I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seen famine, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.
In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.
Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake. In one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins. Her son was missing and rescuer workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.
Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had had twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.
In life, we need role models that we can admire（赞美） and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people. 25. The underlined word “ famine ” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A. pleasure B. joy C. luck D. hunger 26. What can we learn about Rosa?
A. She’s a rich lady and she likes to help the homeless children.
B. She’s a kind-hearted woman and provides houses for the homeless children. C. She’s a great mother and she looks after the homeless children. D. She’s a good teacher and she teaches the homeless children. 27. The speaker is giving a speech to students in __________.
A. China B. Canada C. Turkey D. India 28. For what does the speaker admire the Turkish woman and the Chinese boy? A. Their bravery. B. Their strong mind. C. Their age. D. Their luck.
C
What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice cream taster?
Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers(制造商) to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career（事业） Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream ---- as well as for developing over 75 flavors（口味）.
Some people think that it would be easy to do this job; after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No —there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field.
In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses（评定） 60 ice cream samples（样品）. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12 °F. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir（搅拌） it, creating ice-cream soup.”
While the ice cream warms up, Harrison look over the samples and grades（打分）each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste!
Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy--- working at one cool job.
