People like to say:“The hand that rocks(搖動(dòng))the cradle(搖籃)rules the world.”O(jiān)r theysay:“Behind every successful man,there is a woman.”
Now some women still like making their husbands and sons successful.But some women want more for themselves.They want to be successful as men.
Today the best jobs are still given to men.Even when women do the same work,they are often paid less than men.Some women want these things changed.They want to stand beside the men,with the same chances for success.
Now many American women are earning money outside their homes.More than half of the women at the age of eighteen to sixty-five have good jobs.In general,working women have more education than those who stay at home.
Among women with jobs,eight out of ten drive a car to work,and most of them often spend their holidays away from home.They like traveling by air.Women’s work has made several changes in women’s lives and in men’s lives,too.
But things are quite different from those in the Middle East countries.
In the Middle East countries,women have to stay at home.They look after their families and do all the housework.They can’t find work outside.When they go out in public.they cover their faces with something and walk behind their husbands.
For the past few years the women’s life has been changing in those countries.Many women want to play an active role in the society.Though working gives them few chances of getting married,many men still want to marry them in the old ways.

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut." Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me," said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which."
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds. "In fact, parents are first on the list." said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years." Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."
Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
小題1:"The door to his room is always shut" suggests that the son_______.
A.is always busy with his studies
B.doesn't want to be disturbed
C.keeps himself away from his parents
D.begins to dislike his parents
小題2:What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _______.
A.their daughter isn't as lovely as before
B.they can't read their daughter's mind exactly
C.they don't know what to say to their daughter
D.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
小題3:which of the following best explains "the wall of silence" in the last paragraph?
A.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.
B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
C.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.
D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.
小題4:What can be learned from the passage?
A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.
C.Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
