推理判断题。根据题干信息定位到第二段第一二句话“Black or Hispanic women are four times as likely to be low-wage workers as are white men”“White women are more than three times as likely as white men to be low-wage workers”，由此可知，黑人女性或者西班牙裔女性成为低工资劳动者的可能性是具有同等技能和经验的白人男性的4倍，白人女性成为低工资劳动者的可能性比白人男性高3倍多，两种比较的参照标准都是白人男性，因此成为低工资劳动者可能性最高的人群是黑人或西班牙裔女性，而她们属于有色人种，故答案为A项。

第2题：
Text 2
Women are, on the whole, more verbal than men. They are good at language and verbal reasoning, while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual spatial abilities. In fact, along with aggression, these are the most commonly accepted differences between the sexes.
Words are tools for communicating with other people, especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology, it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain, males are specialists while women are generalists.
But no one knows what, if anything, this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both visual and spatial, and it' s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car, tasks that involve visual spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity. A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle, or computer as a useful tool, but not in itself fascinating.
26. According to the passage, women are usually good at ______.
A) body language
B) logical reasoning
C) tasks demanding for the use of words
D) both A and B

Careers for Women
It is only seventy years since British women got the right to vote.Some people think this is the main reason why women are so under-represented in politics,trade unions and big businesses.Others feel it is simply because that they are much too busy doing other things.The old saying"a woman's place is in the home"may seem out of date to most people,but the old,fixed image of a woman as a supporting wife and caring mother is certainly still usual一one only has to watch a few television ads.
In 1975 the law did not allow women to be paid less than men doing the same work.Certainly it is usually the case nowadays that women doing the same jobs as men get the same money for doing it. But generally women do not do the same jobs:they do different ones that offer lower salaries.
In the United States,there are two million women entering the workforce every year. The new workers include all ages and backgrounds:teenagers,college students,young housewives,and older women who have lost their husbands.Altogether,more than half of the eighty-four million women in
the United States are now employed or seeking employment.Most of them are still holding tightly to the womanly jobs such as nursing,teaching,catering and office work jobs that can be seen as an extension of the mothering role.
Although the areas women work in are almost all those of"service",a growing number of pioneers are venturing into other fields. They run business;they manage farms;they become astronauts, carpenters,lawyers,truck or taxi-drivers,coal miners,or politicians.They join the army or the navy.So far no woman has become president of the country;but that might happen,as indeed it has happened in other countries.
Apart from looking after people during the day at work,women often have to take care of a family at home too,which may mean they have less energy to compete in the race for professional development. In almost every field,top positions are more likely to be filled by men. While most teachers are women,for example,most head masters are not.School cooks are women,head cooks are men and even cleaners tend to be watched over and directed by male caretakers.The heads of schools are more likely to be men.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：文章第一段就指出“It is only seventy years since British women got the rightto vote"，七十年前英国妇女才获得了选举权，因此选B
文章并没有提到几十年前妇女是否因为太忙没有时间参加社会事务，所以选C。
该判断正确。文中第二段提到“Certainly it is usually the case nowadaysthat women doing the same jobs as men get the same money for doing it.”即通常和男人做同样工作的女人拿到的钱和男人一样多。
第三段最后一句说到很多妇女做的工作“can be seen as an extension of themothering role"，这些工作都可以被看作是看顾、照料型角色的扩展，mothering意思是“像母亲般照顾人的”而非“母亲”的意思，所以选B。
文章并没有提到美国是否在短期内就会产生一名女性总统，只是说“Sofar no woman has become president of the country; but that might happen"，即有可能产生女总统，所以选C。
文章最后一段表明一个事实，即女性在工作和家庭中都需要做照顾性的工作，而这也许意味着“they have less energy to compete in the race for professional development", 而不是在工作上天生不如男性精力旺盛，所以选B
文章最后一段倒数第二句提到“While most teachers are women ...most head masters are not"，即虽然大多数教师是女性，但学校的校长却不是女性。所以A正确。 -

第15题：
C
It is hardly surprising that clothing manufacturers （生产商）follow certain uniform. standards for various features（特征）of clothes. What seems strange , however, is that the standard adopted for women is the opposite of the one for men. Take a look at the way your clothes button. Men’s clothes tend to button from the right, and women’s form. the left. Considering most of the word’s population-men and women-are right-handed, the men’s standard would appear to make more sense for women. So why do women’s clothes button from the left?
History really seems to matter here. Button first appeared only on the clothes of the rich in the
17th century, when rich women were dressed by servants. For the mostly right-handed servants, having women’s shirts button from the left would be easier. On the other hang, having men’s shirts button form. the right made sense, too. Most men dressed themselves, and a sword drawn from the left with the right hang would be less likely to get caught in the shirt.
Today women are seldom dressed by servants, but buttoning form. the left is still the standard for them. Is it interesting? Actually, a standard , once set, resists change. At a time when all women’s shirts buttoned form. the left, it would have been risky for any single manufacture to offer women’s shirts that buttoned the right. After all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the left and would have to develop new habits and skills to switch. Besides from the right, since anyone who noticed that would believe they were wearing men’s shirts.
64. What is surprising about the standard of the clothing industry?
A. It has been followed by the industry for over 400 years.
B. It is different for men’s clothing and women’s.
C. It woks better with men than with women.
D. It fails to consider right-handed people.
