Ruth Bader Ginsburg spent her life fighting for women to be treated equally. In doing so, she became an inspiring role model for women and girls around the world.

Her passion for women’s rights began when she was young. She started off her adult life having trouble finding a job. Even though she was smart, determined, and capable of doing the job, she was passed over primarily because she was a woman. She felt like she was being treated unfairly, or discriminated against, only because she was a woman. She wanted to do something about it. But at the time there were no laws in the United States to protect her.

She decided to devote her career to being a lawyer and fighting for equal rights of women. Then, early in her legal career, when she was 29 years old, Ms. Ginsburg took a trip to Sweden to perform legal research. What she saw really focused her on fighting for women in the workplace. Seeing the progress women had made in Sweden convinced her even more that America was behind and wrong in its treatment of women.

Back in the USA, laws advocating for women’s rights were missing. She decided that she would help invent laws, write them, and defend them. Ginsburg would also become a professor to help other women to become lawyers so that they could do the same thing. And then, in 1993, after years’ practicing and teaching laws, she became only the 2nd female justice of the Supreme Court.

At only 5'1" tall and as a generally quiet person, Ms. Ginsburg’s power came from her focus, her determination, and her integrity (诚实正直). She went on to become an inspiring role model for girls and women around the world and one of the most respected justices in history. She changed the lives of many women and girls in the United States and beyond. 4．Why did Ruth fail to get a job?

A．She was not an adult.B．Women can not work by law.

C．She did something illegal.D．She was treated unfairly.

5．What did Ruth do to fight for equal rights of women?

A．She performed legal research in Sweden.B．She escaped from her motherland. C．She consulted lawyers of Sweden.D．She fought with the USA government. 6．Which one can be used to describe Ruth?

A．Optimistic.B．Selfless.C．Generous.D．Determined. 7．What is the best title for the text?

A．Sweden—A Birthplace of Famous Lawyers

B．Ruth—A Supreme Fighter of Women’s Rights

C．A Famous Justice—A Pioneer of Americans’ Rights

D．The USA—A Country Fighting with Discrimination

A culture's values can be mirrored by its humor.Humor has been evaluated by many great minds such as Thomas Hobbes,who,in"On Nature",disliked humor,"Laughter is nothing else but sudden glory arising from sudden thought of feeling far better than others."He thought humor to be a negative quality of human narrow-mindedness.

However,Mordechai Gordon,PhD of Education,insists,"Humor allows us to view the world from an angle that is amusing rather than serious."I agree with Gordon.Learning to look at the world through humor is important.

In the United States,every four years an election occurs.Without humor as a way to express their feelings,how would Americans be willing to support the election?Television shows like "The Daily Show" have become important parts of American culture.They are mothering the masses by unconsciously inputting politics into our mouths.They make politics fun.

Of course, politics is only one type of humor.Social humor helps people through the twists and turns of the human condition.American pop culture promotes an unhealthy self image.On the topic of self-image,Hari Kondabolu stands out.He has a joke about the popular musical group "The Pussycat Dolls",describing their hit song "Don't Cha" as a negative representation of women.He points out an obvious offence in American culture.

A study from Loyola University of Maryland has shown that humor is one determining factor for selecting a mating partner.Amongst other things,mates look for an outstanding funny bone in a potential partner.

Of course,humor is not always used for good purposes.Humor can be linked to vulgarity （粗俗）and racism,but, like everything else,it has potential to unite human beings by allowing us to laugh at ourselves,our failures and our connection with one another.

Though life may seem tough and depressing at times,all I have to do is look in the mirror at my increased wrinkles（皱纹）to know that there is a comedy out there that even Chaplin wasn't aware of.

With that in mind,remember to laugh with humanity and sometimes at humanity.

8．Hobbes believes that humor_______.

A．resulted in narrow-mindedness of human beings

B．was only a way to laugh at others to make oneself feel better

C．had the power to mirror personal glory and national values

D．was for people to view the world from another angle

9．What is the author's attitude towards political humor?

A．Worried B．Disappointed

C．Curious D．Appreciative

10．The fourth paragraph is developed mainly______.

A．by process B．by example

C．by comparison D．by classification

11．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A．Chaplin wasn't aware of being laughed at

B．The author feels helpless and sad about getting older

C．Never be the one who laughs at other people

D．The author is determined to face life with a sense of humor.

A study has found that a lifetime of regular exercise and activity can slow down the aging process (衰老过程). Researchers say that getting older should not necessarily mean becoming more weak or sick. Their research shows that a devotion to a life of movement and exercise may help us live not only longer, but also healthier.

For their study, the researchers looked at two groups. The first group was made up of 125 non-professional cyclists between the ages of 55 to 79. This group included 84 healthy men and 41 healthy women. We will call this group the “cyclists”.

Researchers then found 130 people to make up a second group. Within this group, 75 people were aged from 57 to 80. The other 55 were between the ages of 20 and 36. The people in this group were also healthy, but they did not exercise regularly. We will call this group the “non-exercisers”. Smokers, heavy drinkers of alcohol and people with other health issues were not included in the study.

Then, researchers gave both groups a series of tests. They tested their muscle mass (肌肉质量), muscular strength, percentage of body fat and the strength of their immune (免疫的) systems. Then the researchers compared the results of the two groups.

Results showed that the cyclists did not experience body changes usually regarded as a normal aging process. For example, they did not lose muscle mass or muscular strength. Also, their body fat did not increase with age.

The researchers also found something they had not expected. The study showed that the immune systems of the cyclists did not age either.

The researchers advise us all to find an exercise that we like in our lives.

12．How did the researchers carry out the study?

A．By comparing.B．By discussing.

C．By imagining.D．By reasoning.

13．Which of the following is a result of the research?

A．The cyclists kept a thin body shape.

B．The non-exercisers gained weight easily.

C．The cyclists’ muscles remained strong with age.

D．The non-exercisers usually had health problems.

14．Which is an unexpected result for the researchers?

A．The cyclists had normal aging process.

B．The cyclists’ immune systems didn’t age.

C．The cyclists lost nearly all their fat.

D．Everyone needed an exercise in their lives.

15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Healthy People Need More Exercise

B．Take an Exercise, the Harder, the Better

C．Cycling Is the Best Way to Prevent Aging

D．A Lifetime of Exercise Slows Aging Process
