22、 How do you get a man to do his share of the housework? If you are like most women, you’ve faced this question the hard way.
A man will enjoy a clean, orderly house, but he usually won’t make the effort to clean or organize it. This doesn’t mean that a woman has to do all the housework; she may have to manage many of the household duties, and request her partner’s participation. A woman can often say that men and women should take equal responsibility for housework.
Very few men are raised to be fully responsible for housework, and many men look on housework as women’s work. On the other hand, most men will readily work around the yard, make repairs and complete projects on weekends or evenings, and it’s important that you give your man appreciation for those things, too. Most men will take on a little housework around the house if asked politely. They are even more likely to do housework if they can choose what they want to do, and do it without being monitored.
Here’s the key: men want to feel that they are doing housework either because they want to do a task, or because they simply want to please their women. Men are much less likely to take on household tasks they consider uninteresting and unimportant. In other words, men are likely to do a household task just for the good of the house.
【1】According to the passage, a man __________.
A.is willing to do housework
B.likes to be told to do housework
C.is taught to be responsible for housework from childhood
D.likes a clean house but doesn’t make efforts to clean it
【2】In order to get men to do some housework, women should often __________.
A.order them to do their share B.ask them to do some housework politely
C.blame men’s laziness D.monitor men’s work
【3】According to the passage, which of the following would a husband most probably like to do?
A.Cleaning the table. B.Doing some washing.
C.Painting the fence. D.Asking his wife to work on the yard.
【4】According to the passage, the underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that men won’t __________.
A.work without any payment B.do unimportant household tasks
C.do housework without women’s praise D.please their wives

24、It was May 23, 2016. Arnot, the 32-year-old mountain guide, reached the top of Everest without the use of oxygen (O2) equipment. It was achieved after seven years, three previous attempts, and fourteen straight hours of climbing.
After 15 minutes at the top, Arnot began her descent (下坡). Eight hours later, she reached the camp at 7, 600 meters and became the first American woman—and only the seventh woman ever—to successfully reach Mount Everest without oxygen equipment.
Arnot didn’t start climbing until she was 19 years old. Money was tight in her family, and climbing mountains never occurred in her mind. After graduating from college, Arnot was invited by her friend to climb a mountain. “It totally changed my life”, says Arnot. “I always know that if you want something, you can achieve it, but knowing what you want is a whole different thing,” she says. “I am athletic but not competitive. After my first climbing, I knew immediately that mountains are what I want—as that is where I felt home for the first time in my life.”
After that first climb, she devoted herself to learning how to climb and move through mountain. It was during her second trip to Everest in 2009 that she first set her sights on a no-oxygen attempt. However, while hiking into Everest Base Camp that year, she hurt her leg and wasn’t able to climb without oxygen. In 2013 she nearly made it to the top, but was forced to take oxygen at 8,504 meters while helping another climber.
【1】On May 23, 2016. Arnot ________.
A.spent 8 straight hours climbing
B.stayed at the top for 50 minutes
C.made her first attempt to climb Everest
D.reached the top without oxygen equipment
【2】Arnot fell in love with climbing because _________.
A.money was no longer a problem to her
B.mountains gave her the feeling of comfort
C.she tried to be more athletic and competitive
D.she wanted to build up her body through climbing
【3】What do we know about Arnot’s climbing experience?
A.She took up climbing when she was 19 years old.
B.She has always been a good climber since her childhood.
C.She climbed Everest with her family during her first trip.
D.She hurt her leg badly while helping another climber in 2009.
【4】Which of the following can best describe Arnot?
A.Determined and brave.
B.Cautious and honest.
C.Caring and open-minded.
D.Confident and creative.
