The London Stock Exchange has always been famous as a place for men only,and women used to be strictly forbidden to enter.But the world is changing day by day,and even the Stock Exchange,which seemed to be a man’s castle,is gradually opening its door to the other sex.On 16th November 1971,a great decision was taken.The Stock Exchange Council(the body of men that administers the Stock Exchange)decided that women should be allowed on to the new trading floor when it opened in 1973.But the“castle”had not been completely conquered.The first girls to work in“The House”were not brokers or jobbers.They were neither allowed to become partners in stockbroking firms,not to be authorised dealers in stocks and shares.They were simply junior clerks and telephone operators.

Women have been trying to get into the Stock Exchange for many years.Several votes have been taken in“The House”to see whether the members would be willing to allow women to become members,but the answer has always been“No”.There have been three refusals of this kind since 1967.Now women are admitted,although in a very junior capacity.Two firms of jobbers made an application to the Stock Exchange Council to be allowed to employ girl clerks.Permission was finally given.A member of the Stock Exchange explained,after this news had been given,“The new floor is going to be different from the old one.All the jobbers will have their own stands,with space for a telephone and typewriters.Therefore there will have to be typists and telephone operators.So women must be allowed in.”This decision did not mean a very great victory in the war for equal rights for women.However,it was a step in the right direction.The Chairman of the Stock Exchange said:“I think that the opening of the new building will eventually lead to women being allowed to have full membership of the Stock Exchange.It is only a matter of time;it must happen.”

61.It was not until 16th November,1971 that_____.

A.the London Stock Exchange opened its doors to women

A child at five is friendly,competent and obedient,although he may be bossy with other children and is sometimes sufficiently independent to call his mother names.He is still dependent on adult approval and praise,and so orientated to the grown-up that he tells tales without seeing the other child’s point of view.There is no real discussion yet—fives talking together indulge in a“collective monologue”,quarrelling with words often begins towards the end of the year.Group play is often disrupted because everyone wants to be the mother or the bride or the captain of the fire brigade.Each child has an urgent need for constantly recurring contact with an adult in spite of all his efforts to be independent.(81)In his unsureness he may make statements about his own cleverness and beauty,hoping that the adult will praise him:this is not conceit but a cry for reassurance.He loves to say“Watch what I can do.”Reality and fantasy are still intermingled and this confusion may lead him to elaborate on facts.

By the time a child is five he is usually able to run lightly on his toes and is skillful at all sorts of stunts and activities which involve swinging,digging and sliding.He can skip on alternate feet and can stand still on one foot for eight or ten seconds,and he can even hop on one foot for two or three yards.When he hears music whose rhythm appeals to him,he may dance in time to the tune.He can grip strongly with either hand and may ride a tricycle so furiously that he terrifies onlookers—needlessly,for he is now such an expert that the procedure is far safer than it looks.

He can count the fingers of one hand with the index finger of the other,and may count ten or more separate objects correctly.His vocabulary now runs to some 2,000 words,so he can communicate quite freely and easily with adults or other children,and he frequently asks the meaning of words which he hears for the first time.He can name coins and usually knows about four colors whose names he can employ in describing pictures.

He may need help and supervision in washing and drying himself although capable of doing both.He can dress and undress himself quite quickly and is able to distinguish the back and front of his garment although he may put them on back-to-front or inside-out occasionally.Many five-year-olds are still unable to tie their shoelaces and have difficulty with their ties or with inaccessible buttons.Children of this age will often play very well together in pairs with real co-operation while previously they tended to play rather independently although in close proximity.The games which they play on the floor are often complicated and imaginative.

68.Play is often disrupted because _____.

A.there is no real discussion yet

B.five-year-olds need constant contact with adults

C.they enjoy quarrelling with words

D.everyone wants to be the most important character in the game

69.A monologue is _____.

C.they know the adults will praise them D.they are conceited

71.A child is usually skilful at all sorts of stunts _____.

A.well before his fifth birthday B.after his fifth birthday

C.on the day of his fifth birthday D.sometime before his fifth birthday

72.A five-year-old can ride a tricycle _____.

A.so fast that he terrifies people

B.in such a way that he makes onlookers furious

C.in a way that looks safe

D.by gripping strongly with either hand

73.He can communicate with adults because _____.

A.he can count ten or more separate objects correctly

B.he feels free and easy

C.he has a vocabulary of some two thousand words

D.adults frequently tell him the meaning of words he hears for the first time

74.He can wash and dry himself but _____.

A.may need help and guidance B.must have help

C.cannot undress himself D.does it too quickly

75.This passage tells the reader that five-year-olds are _____.

A.totally independent of their parents

B.reluctant to do things like tying their shoelaces

C.more capable than one might imagine

D.clever and beautiful

The“standard of living”of any country means the average person’s share of the goods and services which the country produces.A country’s standard of living,therefore,depends first and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth.“Wealth”in this sense is not money,for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy:“goods”such as food and clothing,and“services”such as transport and entertainment.

A country’s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors,most of which have an effect on one another.Wealth depends to great extent upon a country’s natural resources,such as coal,gold,and other minerals,water supply and so on.Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals,and have a fertile soil and a favorable climate;other regions possess none of them.The U.S.A is one of the wealthiest regions of the world because she has vast natural resources within her borders,her soil is fertile,and her climate is varied.The Sahara Dessert,on the other hand,is one of the least wealthy.

Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use.Sound and stable political conditions,and freedom from foreign invasion,enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily,and to produce more wealth than another country equally well served by nature but less well ordered.Another important factor is the technical efficiency of a country’s people.Old countries that have,through many centuries,trained up numerous skilled craftsmen and technicians are better placed to produce wealth than countries whose workers are largely unskilled.Wealth also produces wealth.As a country becomes wealthier,its people have a large margin for saving,and can put their savings into factories and machines which will help workers to turn out more goods in their working day.

A country’s standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its borders,but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade.For example,Britain’s wealth in foodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had to depend only on those grown at home.Trade makes it possible for her surplus manufactured goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products that would otherwise be lacking.(82)A country’s wealth is,therefore,much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,provided that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures..

To calculate the average standard of living of any country,one divides its“national income”by the number of people in it.Strictly,the term“national income”means the total of goods and services produced for consumption in that country a year;but such a total cannot be divided unless it is expressed in money.

76.A country’s wealth depends upon _____.

A.its standard of living

B.its money

C.its ability to provide goods and services

D.its ability to provide transport and entertainment

77.The main idea of the second paragraph is that _____.

A.the U.S.A.is one of the wealthiest countries in the world

B.the Sahara Dessert is a very poor region

C.a country’s wealth depends on many factors

D.natural resources are an important factor in the wealth or poverty of a country

78.The third paragraph is about _____.

A.how wealth produces wealth

B.peaceful development of a country’s natural resources

C.the importance of the technical efficiency of a country’s people

D.all of the above

79.The word“margin”in“…a large margin for(line 8,para 3)…”means _____.

A.the space at the side of the page

B.the edge

C.the amount earned but not needed for living

D.any money deposited in a savings account

80.Which of the following about Britain’s wealth is true according to the passage?

A.Britains’s wealth is entirely produced and consumed within its borders.

B.Britain manufactures more than it needs for home consumption.

C.Britain is more dependent upon trade than any other country in the world.
