Exercise 9.
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions.
For Catherine Lumby, deciding to take on the
role of breadwinner in her relationship
was not a difficult choice. When she discovered she was
pregnant with her first child, she
had just been offered a demanding new role as Director of
the Media and Communications department at the University of Sydney. But she didn't see this as an
obstacle, and was prepared to use childcare when the children were old enough. It came,
therefore, as a surprise to Lumby and her husband Derek that, after the birth of their
son, they couldn’t actually bear the thought of putting him into childcare tor nine hours a day. As she was the one with
the secure job, the role of primary care-giver fell to Derek, who was writing scripts
for television. This arrangement continued for the next four years, w ith Derek
working from home and caring for both of their sons. He returned to full-time
work earlier this year.
Whilst Lumby and her husband are by no means
the only Australians making such a role reversal,
research suggests that they are in the minority. In a government-funded survey in 2001, only 5.5
percent of couples in the 30-54 year age group saw the women working either
part- or full-time while the men were unemployed.
The situation is likely to change, according
to the CEO of Relationships Australia, Anne Hollonds. She suggests that this is
due to several reasons, including the number of highly educated women in the
workforce and changing social patterns and expectations. However, she warns
that for couples involved in role-switching, there are many potential
difficulties to be overcome. For men whose self-esteem is connected to their
jobs and the income it provides to the family, a major change of thinking is
required. It also requires women to reassess, particularly with regard to
domestic or child-rearing decisions, and they may have to learn to deal with
the guilt of not always being there at key times for their children. Being
aware of these issues can make operating in non-traditional roles a lot easier.
118. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Men being the
bread winners B. Traditional roles of women
C. Women being the
home makers D. Reversed roles between men and women
119. Catherine and her husband decided that Catherine
would be the primary earner
because ____.
A. she had a badly
paid job B. she
was not good at childcare
C. she had a reliable job D. she wanted her husband to stay at home
120. In paragraph 1, the word “him"
refers to ____.
A. their son B. her husband C. Derek D. her colleague
121. They decided that Derek would look after their son because they ____.
A. couldn’t afford to put their
child in care for long periods each day
B. didn’t want to put their
child in care for long periods each day
C. thought childcare was
not safe enough for their children
D. worried about
their son’s health problems
122. In paragraph 2, the word “reversal" is closest in meaning to ____.
A. stability B.
modification C. rehearsal D. switch
123. One reason tor a change in the number of
men staying home is ____.

the number of highly-educated women who are working
B. the fall in the
number of highly-educated women who are working

Exercise 10. Read the following passage and mark the
letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
In 1812 a young man called James Barry
finished his studies in medicine at Edinburgh University. After graduating he
moved to London where he studied surgery at Guy’s Hospital. After that the
popular young doctor joined the army and over the next forty years had a
brilliant career as an army medical officer, working in many far-off countries
and fighting successfully for improved conditions in hospitals. It was a remarkable career - made even more
remarkable by the discovery upon his death that he was in fact a she, James Barry was a woman.
No one was more surprised at this discovery
than her many friends and colleagues. It was true that throughout her life
people had remarked upon her small size, slight build and smooth pale face. One
officer had even objected to her
appointment as a medical assistant because he could not believe that Barry was
old enough to have graduated in medicine. But no one had ever seriously
suggested that Barry was anything other than a man.
By all accounts Barry was a pleasant and
good-humoured person with high cheekbones, reddish hair, a long nose and large
eyes. She was well-liked by her patients and had a reputation for great speed
in surgery - an important quality at a time when operations were performed
without anaesthetic. She was also quick tempered. When she was working in army
hospitals and prisons overseas, the terrible conditions often made her very angry. She fought hard against
injustice and cruelty and her temper sometimes got her into trouble with the
authority. After a long career overseas, she returned to London where she died
in 1865. While the undertaker’s assistant was preparing her body for burial, she discovered that James Barry was a
woman.
So why did James Barry deceive people for so
long? At that time a woman could not study medicine, work as a doctor or join the army.
Perhaps Barry had always wante to do
these things and pretending to be a man was the only way to make it possible.
Perhaps she was going to tell the truth one day, but didn’t because she was enjoying her life
as a man
too much. Whatever the reason, Barry's deception was successful. By the time it
was discovered
that she had been the first woman in Britain to qualify as a doctor, it was too late for the
authorities to do anything about it.
124. What is the main idea of the passage?
