In China, if you are not married by the time you are 30, you are in for trouble: social blame and pressure from family and friends can get you down. And if you are a woman, it’s even worse.
Many young people get married simply to get other people off their backs (免受別人的指責) . This is a serious compromise. One ends up not marrying the ideal partner.
There are, however, a few young people who refuse to compromise: if they can’t find a good marriage partner, they say, they would rather not marry at all.
34-year-old Kate is a university lecturer in English. She said she would not describe herself as celibatarian (獨身主義者) but simply a woman who hasn’t come across the right man yet. She has sharp comments for the way in which the old generation looks at marriage.
“Many people think marriage is a duty---to your parents, family and society. Nobody cares if your marriage is happy or not, she said, I think this is very wrong and I intend to live and act according to my own will.”
Happily for her, her parents are open-minded and not lay stress on her. But the same does not apply to her friends. They are constantly trying to get her together with some young man or another. She always refuses politely.
1.The main idea of this passage is that _________.
A. marriage is a duty to society
B. people should get married before 30 years old
C. late marriage should be respected
D. women should get married earlier than men

A. she doesn’t think he is the right man she wants

3. In the first paragraph the underlined words “in for” refer to _________.
A. interested in B. satisfied with
C. worried about D. likely to suffer
4.Which is NOT TRUE according to this passage?
A. In China, one may face social blame and family pressure if one hasn’t got married by 30.
B. Miss Kate’s parents are always worried about her marriage.

The novelist Harriet Beecher Stowe, born 200 years ago, was a poor housewife with six children, who suffered from various illnesses. And yet, driven by a passionate hatred of slavery, she found time to write “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” which became the most influential novel in American history and aroused radical change both at home and abroad.
Today, however, the book has a different reputation, owing to the popular image of its character, Uncle Tom-whose name has become a saying for a cowardly black man who betrays his race.
But this view is wrong: The original Uncle Tom was physically and morally strong, an inspiration for blacks and other oppressed people worldwide.
Indeed, that’s why in the mid-19th century Southerners attacked “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” as a dangerously destructive book, while Northern reformers-especially blacks-often praised it.
The book was influential overseas, too.In Russia it inspired Vladimir Lenin, who recalled it as his favorite book in childhood. It was the first American novel to be translated and published in China, and it fueled antislavery causes in Cuba and Brazil.
The book’s progressive appeal was the character of Uncle Tom himself: a strong man who is notable because he does not betray his race; one reason he gave up escaping from his plantation is that he doesn’t want to put his fellow slaves in danger. And he is finally killed because he refuses to tell his master where two runaway slaves are hiding.
Unfortunately, these themes were lost in many of the stage versions of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”.
The play, seen by more people than those who read the book, remained popular up to the`1950s and still appears occasionally. But in the play Stowe’s revolutionary themes were drowned.
But it doesn’t have to be that way; indeed, during the civil rights era it was those who most closely resembled Uncle Tom-Stowe’s Tom, not the sheepish one of popular myth-who proved most effective in promoting progress. Both Stowe and Tom deserve our reconsideration and our respect.
1.Harriet Beecher Stowe managed to write “Uncle Tom’s Cabin because __________.
A.she wanted to earn money to support her family
B.she hated slavery from the bottom of her heart
C.she tried to set an example to her six children
D.she had the similar life experiences with Tom
2. As for the influence of the book, __________.
A.it was the first American novel to be translated into Russian
B.it was the most influential book for Vladimir Lenin in his life
C.it also gave rise to the causes of anti-slavery in the distant Africa
D.its character Tom inspired the blacks and other oppressed people in the world
3.What is true of the character Uncle Tom in the book?
A.He is a black man who betrays his race.
B.He manages to escape from the plantation.
C.He doesn’t put his fellow slaves in danger.
D.He kills himself instead of giving away the slaves.
4.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A.The theme on revolution and progress in the book were lost in the play.
B.The book “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” has more readers than the stage versions.
C.The play was very popular and nowadays it is still put on now and then.
D.It is the Uncle Tom in the book that promotes the progress of mankind.
