Is there a law that 1 don't know about that says women have to do their makeup in the car because the bathroom isn't good enough for them？ I don't know if anyone has ever informed women, but the mirror in the car is not a makeup mirror. The mirror is used for looking at other cars and pedestrians. So please do us all a favor and do your makeup before you leave the house.
The next order of business for the men should be to find out whose brilliant idea it was for women to have a phone in the car. This has disaster written all over it. Everyone knows that women can't even walk and chew gum at the same time, so how in the hell are they going to drive and talk on the phone？ Why is it that every time you are sitting at a red light the woman in front of you thinks this is a good time to make a phone call？ "HELLO LADY THE LIGHT IS GREEN, GET OFF THE PHONE AND GO!" I really think we need to outlaw women using their cell phones while they drive.
Another accident waiting to happen is when you get two women in the same car together. How many times have you seen two women just yakking away and the driver isn't paying attention to where she is axe talking and the driver doesn't see the stop sign in front of her, so she runs it. Two: The two women are talking and at the last minute the driver realizes there is her turn, so she stops really quick in front of you and you almost rear-end her. So women please pay more attention to your driving and, for the love of God, use your turn signals——they aren't there for decoration.
I know all women out there are yelling at me and saying, "Women are better drivers than guys." If women were better drivers than men, why do guys drive on dates？ Why don't women ever tell the guy, I will come pick you up？ Why are almost all truck drivers guys？ Why is it when a woman is going to move and she rents a U-Haul van, she always calls a guy to drive it for her？ When was the last time you watched a woman win the Indy 500 or Daytona 500？ All of these questions just go to prove why guys are the kings of the road.

Why do people marry？ People divorce often, it can be 【S1】______
seen by the rising divorce rate in the U.S. and elsewhere. But they
remarry soon enough after they divorce. Now many of them
divorce at a much younger age than before. That is also found 【S2】______
that the young have a big share of divorce. But what many
sociologists find difficult to understand is because they seem to 【S3】______
be eager to rush into marriage than get out of it. 【S4】______
In the old days, there was every reason to marry young—
specially among the working class. In Chinese communities, 【S5】______
unmarried men and women seemed to be disadvantaged in many
ways. Women were in a more difficult position than men since
in earlier time, girls were not allowed to be educated. They also 【S6】______
did not enjoy social freedom. In the past, women who were not
"married off" if they turned 30 were considered to be a problem 【S7】______
or a worry for the family. They might have to remain with their
families as they could not find jobs, and thus were able to support 【S8】______
themselves. For men, they often led an unpleasant and uncomfortable 【S9】______
life as they did not have a wife to do the sewing, cooking,
and cleaning and take care of the husband and children. In those 【S10】______
days, the family was the cornerstone of society. Both sexes needed
marriage far more than now.

Why So Many Children
In many of the developing countries in Africa and Asia， the population is growing fast. The reason for this is simple : Women in these countries have a high birth rate——from 3.0 to 7.0 children per woman. The majority of these women are poor， without the food or resources to care for their families. Why do they have so many children？ Why don"t they limit the size of their fami-lies？ The answer may be that they often have no choice. There are several reasons for this.
One reason is economic. In a traditional agricultural economy， large families are helpful. Having more children means having more workers in the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. In an industrial economy， the situation is different. Many children do not help a family; instead， they are an expense. Thus， industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate. This was the case in Italy， which was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. In the early part of the twentieth century， Italy was a poor， largely agricultural country with a high birth rate. After World War Ⅱ， Italy"s economy was rapidly modernized and industrialized. By the end of the century. the birth rate had dropped to 1.3 children per woman， the world"s lowest.
However， the economy is not the only important factor that influences birth rate. Saudi Ara-bia， for example， does not have an agriculture-based economy， and it has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. Nevertheless， it also has a very high birth rate （7.0）. Mexico and Indonesia， on the other hand， are poor countries， with largely agricultural economies， but they have recently reduced their population growth.
Clearly， other factors are involved. The most important of these is the condition of women. A high birth rate almost always goes together with lack of education and low status for women. This would explain the high birth rate of Saudi Arabia. There， the traditional culture gives women little education or independence and few possibilities outside the home. On the other hand， the improyed condition of women in Mexico， Thailand， and Indonesia explains the decline in birth rates in these countries. Their governments have taken measures to provide more education and oppor-tunities for women.
Another key factor in the birth rate is birth control. Women may want to limit their families but have no way to do so. In countries where governments have made birth control easily available and inexpensive， birth rates have gone down. This is the case in Singapore， Sri Lanka， and India， as well as in Indonesia， Thailand， Mexico， and Brazil. In these countries， women have also been provided with health care and help in planning their families.
These trends show that an effective program to reduce population growth does not have to depend on better economic conditions. It can be effective if it aims to help women and meet their needs. Only then， in fact， does it have any real chance of success.

What is the main point of view of this passage？ Why do so many women seem obsessed with their weight and body shape？ Are they really that unhappy and dissatisfied with themselves？ In today’s society, the expectations for women and their bodies are all too evident. Fashion, magazines, talk shows, and “lite” and fat-free food in stores and restaurants are all daily reminders of these expectations. For instance, the latest fashions for women reveal more and more skin: shorts have become shorter, to the point of being scarcely larger than a pair of underpants. These styles are only flattering on the slimmest of bodies, and many women who were previously happy with their bodies may emerge from the dressing room after a run-in with these styles and decide that it must be diet time again. It seems that this obsession with the perfect body and a woman’s appearance has grown to monumental heights. Now many people feel that this problem is disappearing. People have begun to assume that women want to be thin because they just want to be “healthy.” But it is ironic. What has happened is that the sickness slips in under the guise of wanting a “healthy” body…
A、Women should not be obsessed with their weight and body shape.
B、It’s the social expectations for women and their bodies that make them obsessed with their weight and body shape
C、Women are really unhappy and dissatisfied with themselves.
D、Now many people feel that the problem of women paying too much attention to their body shape is disappearing.
According to the majority of Americans, women are every bit as capable of being good political leaders as men. The same can be said of their ability to dominate the corporate boardroom. And according to a new Pew Research Center survey on women and leadership, most Americans find women indistinguishable from men on key leadership traits such as intelligence and capacity for innovation, with many saying they’re stronger than men in terms of being passionate and organized leaders. So why, then, are women in short supply at the top of government and business in the United States？ According to the public, at least, it’s not that they lack toughness, management talent or proper skill sets. It’s also not all about work-life balance.Although economic research and previous survey findings have shown that career interruptions related to motherhood may make it harder for women to advance in their careers and compete for top executive jobs, relatively few adults in the recent survey point to this as a key barrier for women seeking leadership roles. Only about one-in-five say women’s family responsibilities are a major reason why there aren’t more females in top leadership positions in business and politics. Instead, topping the list of reasons, about four-in-ten Americans point to a double standard for women seeking to climb to the highest levels of either politics or business, where they have to do more than their male counterparts to prove themselves. Similar shares say the electorate (选民) and corporate America are just not ready to put more women in top leadership positions. As a result, the public is divided about whether the imbalance in corporate America will change in the foreseeable future, even though women have made major advances in the workplace. While 53% believe men will continue to hold more top executive positions in business in the future, 44% say it’s only a matter of time before as many women are in top executive positions as men. Americans are less doubtful when it comes to politics: 73% expect to see a female president in their lifetime. （2019.6月四级真题） Q: What do we learn from previous survey findings about women seeking leadership roles？
A、They have unconquerable difficulties on their way to success.
B、They are lacking in confidence when competing with men.
C、Their failures may have something to do with family duties.
D、Relatively few are hindered in their career advancement.
