答案解析
1. D寫(xie)作(zuo)意圖題。文(wen)章主要介紹貝利(li)的(de)成就：16歲開始打職業比(bi)賽，9奪國(guo)內冠(guan)(guan)軍，17歲身披國(guo)家隊戰(zhan)袍參加(jia)世(shi)界杯(bei)，在決(jue)賽中，攻入兩(liang)球(qiu)(qiu)，力助巴西隊首次在世(shi)界杯(bei)上(shang)奪冠(guan)(guan)。4次參加(jia)世(shi)界杯(bei)足球(qiu)(qiu)賽，3次奪冠(guan)(guan)，被譽(yu)為巴西國(guo)寶，后又(you)到北美踢球(qiu)(qiu)，推(tui)動(dong)(dong)了足球(qiu)(qiu)運動(dong)(dong)在北美的(de)普(pu)及等。
2. A詞義猜測題(ti)。第四(si)段說許(xu)多歐洲球隊(dui)出巨資(zi)想請貝利為他(ta)(ta)們國家(jia)效力，但巴西宣布他(ta)(ta)為“國寶”，以使他(ta)(ta)留在(zai)國內踢球。結合上下文可知treasure在(zai)此意為“倍受珍視的(de)人”。

Passage 2題材：社會生活(huo) 體裁：說明文 關(guan)鍵詞：homework詞數：232 閱(yue)讀時間：4分鐘
Having a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women，according to a new study.For men，getting married saves an hour of housework a week.“It's a well-known_pattern，”said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research.“Men usually work more outside the home，while women take on more of the housework.”
He points out that differences among households(家庭)exist.But in general，marriage means more housework for women and less for men.“And the situation gets worse for women when they have children，”Stafford said.
Overall，times are changing in the American home.In 1976，women busied themselves with 26 weekly hours of sweeping-and-dusting work，compared with 17 hours in 2005.Men are taking on more housework，more than doubling their housework hours from six in 1976 to 13 in 2005.
Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework，about 12 weekly hours，while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most-about 21 hours a week.
Men showed a somewhat different pattern，with older men picking up the broom more often than younger men.Single men worked the hardest around the house，more than that of all other age groups of married men.
Having children increases housework even further.With more than three children，for example，wives took on more of the extra work，clocking about 28 hours a week compared with husbands' 10 hours.
1．According to the “well-known pattern”in Paragraph 1，a married man______.
A．takes on heavier work
B．does more housework
C．is the main breadwinner
D．is the master of the house
2．How many hours of housework did men do every week in the 1970s?
A．About 28. B．About 26.
C．About 13. D．About 6.
3．What kind of man is doing most housework according to the text?
A．An unmarried man.
B．An older married man.
C．A younger married man.
D．A married man with children.
4．What can we conclude from Stafford's research?
A．Marriage gives men more freedom.
B．Marriage has effects on job choices.
C．Housework sharing changes over time.
D．Having children means doubled housework.
篇章導讀
本文列舉了各(ge)個時期(qi)男人和女人分擔家(jia)(jia)務活(huo)(huo)的多(duo)少，從而說明了隨著社(she)會的發展，男女分擔家(jia)(jia)務活(huo)(huo)的時間也發生變化。
1 C細節理解題。根據第(di)一段最(zui)后一句“Men usually work more outside the home，...”可知結婚的男人是主要的掙(zheng)錢養家的人。
2 D細(xi)節判斷題。根據第三段最后一句中的“Men are taking on more housework，more than doubling their homework hours from six in 1976...”可(ke)知在20世紀70年代男人每(mei)星期做家務的時間大約是六個小時。
3 A細節判斷題。由(you)第五段最后(hou)一句可知，單(dan)身(shen)男(nan)人做家務比其他各(ge)年齡段的已婚男(nan)人做的家務活都要多，故(gu)A項為正確選項。
4 C推(tui)理判斷(duan)題(ti)。根據(ju)短(duan)文中所(suo)列舉(ju)的各個時(shi)(shi)期男(nan)人(ren)和女人(ren)分擔(dan)家(jia)務活的多(duo)少不(bu)難(nan)看出，男(nan)人(ren)和女人(ren)分擔(dan)的家(jia)務勞動的時(shi)(shi)間是不(bu)時(shi)(shi)地變化的。

Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart(購物手(shou)推(tui)車)．They will，in a lifetime，push the chrome-plated_contraptions many miles.But few will know-or even think to ask-who it was that invented them.
