The Fat Problem That Men Face
It is a pleasure to see men of a certain age worrying about their weight. Listening to them is not such a pleasure. Because the men are new at the game， they don"t hesitate to discuss the fat problem incessantly. However， women of the same age do not discuss the fat problem， especially not in mixed company. They prefer to face the problem with quiet dignity. Discussing the problem might only draw attention to some stray body part that may be successfully tucked away under an article of clothing.
The age at which a man begins to explore the fat problem can vary. The actual problem can manifest itself in the early 30"s， but broad-range discussion usually starts later. There are early nonverbal symptoms. I"ve watched the rugged journalist who shares my apartment sneak by with a Diet Coke. His shirts are no longer neatly tucked in to display a trim waist. Recently he has begun to verbalize his anxiety. He tells me， with a sheepish grin， that he is taking his suits to Chinatown to have them "ailored."
Still-older men have lost their dignity and rattle on unabashedly. Often， wives and children play important roles in their fat-inspection rituals. Take my oldest brother， a former college football player， as an example. His daughter says that several times a day he will stand at attention and call out， "Fat， medium or thin？" She knows the correct answer: medium. Thin would be an obvious stretch， and fat may not get her that new video. According to his wife， he stands in front of the mirror in the morning （before the day"s meals take their toll）， puts his hands behind his head and lurches into a side bend， then clutches the roll that has developed and says， "Am I getting fatter？"
His wife is expected to answer， "You look like you may have lost a few pounds."
And then there are the ex-husbands， a pitiful group. They are extremely vocal. When I go to the movies with one， he confides that he is suffering from great hunger because he is dieting. He hasn"t eaten since the pancakes and sausages he wolfed down that morning. He pauses in his monologue while he buys his popcorn. After the movie， we sprint to a restaurant， where he again pauses to devour a basket of bread. Before he orders his chaste salad and soup， he grows plaintive. Do I think he"s fat？

Shaw Taylor shows pictures of paintings, jewellery (珠宝) and other things which thieves stole during the week. Sometimes he shows the car that the thieves escaped in. When people see men or
things on the television programme which they may remember, they can tell the police where they saw them. With their help the police may catch more criminals.
Sometimes the police find a car or some money. Shaw Taylor shows them on television. The owners sometimes see them. Then they can telephone the police and say, "Thank you very much-- that's mine!"

A．it is on for five times every seven days
B．it lasts five minutes a week
C．it begins at five in the afternoon
D．it is a programme about five policemen
Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
For one thing, tightness in the job market seems to have given men an additional incentive to take jobs where they can find them. Although female-dominated office and service jobs for the most part rank lower in pay and stores, "they're still there," says June O'Neill, director of program and policy research at the institute. Traditionally male blue-collar jobs, meanwhile, "aren't increasing at all."
At the same time, she says, "The outlooks of young people are different." Younger men with less rigid views on what constitutes male or female work "may not feel there's such a stigma (耻辱) to work in a female-dominated field."
Although views have softened, men who cross the sexual segregation line in the job market may still face discrimination and ridicule. David Anderson, a 36-year-old former high school teacher, says he found secretarial work "a way out of teaching and into the business world." He had applied for work at 23 employment agencies for "management training jobs that didn't exist," and he discovered that "the best skill I had was being able to type 70 words a minute."
He took a job as a secretary to the marketing director of a New York publishing company. But he says he could feel a lot of people wondering "what I was doing there and if something was wrong with me". Mr. Anderson's boss was a woman. When she asked him to fetch coffee, he says, "the other secretaries' eyebrows went up." Sales executives who came in to see his boss, he says, "I couldn't quite believe that I could and would type, take dictation, and answer the phones."
Males sometimes find themselves mistaken for higher-status professionals. Anthony Shee, a flight attendant with US Air Inc., has been mistakes for a pilot. Mr. Anderson, the secretary, says he found himself being "treated in executive tones whenever I wore a suit."
In fact, the men in fractional female jobs often move up the ladder fast Mr. Anderson actually worked only seven months as a secretary. Then he got a higher-level, better-paying job as a placement counselor at an employment agency. "I got a lot of encouragement to advance," he says, "including job tips from male executives who couldn't quite see me staying a secretary."
Experts say, for example, that while men make up only a small fraction of elementary school teachers, a disproportionate number of elementary principals are men Barbara Bergmann, an economist at the University of Maryland who has studied sex segregation at work, believes that's partly because of sexism in the occupational structure" and partly because men have been raised to assert themselves and to assume responsibility. Men may also feel more compelled than women to advance, she suspects.
According to the passage, which statement is NOT line？
A．Men have taken jobs in female-dominated careers because these jobs were available.
B．Physical labor jobs were not increasing.
C．Men have taken jobs in female-dominated careers because these jobs pay more.
D．Although the jobs in female-dominated careers pay lower, men still take them.

The man who buys a television set departs from the world of living men and enters another word of shadows. I do not blame my friend. The real world, I suppose, is just too much for him as it is for millions of others.
My friend does not realize, of course, that he is in full retreat from actuality. He supposes, on the contrary, that he is boldly advancing into the fierce current of these times by bringing the world, with all its events and human figures, into his living room. That is the great current illusion. The shadows are mistaken for things.
Now, television is a wonderful invention. I have no word to say against it, so long as it is confined to other people's houses where, in my weaker moments, I may see it occasionally free. But it brings no one closer to life. It merely inter- poses a gaudy curtain between lift and the spectator. It is only the latest gadget contrived by thoughtful men to make sure that nobody does any real thinking for himself.
My friend will answer that he will now receive the best thoughts of the ablest minds in the world and see their faces as they deliver them. He will see events as they unfold at first hand, with a time lag of half a second or less.
Of course, he will. But he won't understand anything better. He will understand less than ever. For the grim, inescap- able fact of human understanding is that it must be private, must come from within and cannot be plastered on like stucco from the outside. A man may secure knowledge from others. He will never secure understanding. Though it is presented in a million different versions, the paramount problem of modern man is to find a satisfactory participation in modern life. And it is there that he is most obviously failing.
He can turn a screw on the assembly line, but as the finished automobile comes off at the end, he has no satisfaction in its creation. Or if he works in a white collar he can add up all the figures of business on an adding machine without once touching the realities a life as the country storekeeper touches them. He swarms in his multitudes to watch hockey game but he does not play hockey.
In other words, for the essential purposes of life, modern man is becoming a spectator, not a participant, a customer not a creator, a consumer in the main and only incidentally a producer. Thus by a law as old as Eden he becomes sick under a hectic outward flush. His physical diet is better than ever but he sickens by a secret malnutrition of the soul.
According to the author, his friend has bought a television in order to_____.
A．know the current events
B．entertain himself at leisure time
C．escape from the reality
D．kill time
A.commemorate
B.memorize
C.remember
D.memorial
