When Women Were “Ladies”
As late as 1800, women’s only place was in the home. The idea of women in the business world was unthinkable. No “nice” woman would d 1 of entering what was strictly a “man’s world”. Even if she could, what would she do? Men were positive that no women could deal with a job outside her home. This was such a w 2 accepted idea that when the famous Bront? sisters began writing books in 1846, they disguised (伪装) themselves by signing their books w 3 men’s names.
Teaching was the first profession (职业) open to women soon after 1800. But even so, that was not an e 4 profession for women to enter because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to
a 5 women.
Hospital nursing became respectable work for women only after Florence Nightingale became f 6 . Because she was a wealthy and cultured woman, as well as a nurse, people began to believe it was possible for women to nurse the s 7 and still be “ladies”. Miss Nightingale opened England’s first training school for nurses in 1860.
The i 8 of the typewriter (打字机) in 1867 helped to bring women out of the home and into the business world. Because women had slender (纤细的), quick f 9 , they learned to operate typewriter quickly and well. Businessmen found that they had to hire women for this new kind of work.
By 1900, thousands of women were working at real jobs in schools, hospitals, and offices in both England and America. Some women even m 10 to become doctors or lawyers. The idea that “nice” women could work in the business world had been accepted.

五、任务型阅读
Everyone bathes in a different way. Most Americans never take a bath. They soap and rinse(冲洗) off under the shower. The English always take a bath. First, they sit in a bathtub full of warm water. Then they soap themselves, and finally they rinse off the soap, all in the same water. The Japanese on the other hand, first wash with soap in the shower. Then they go and sit in a bathtub full of warm water for twenty minutes or more. Later, others in the family use the same water to sit and relax in The Thai(秦国人) do not get into a shower or a bathtub.
They stand in a room or an area of a house where there is a big jar(罐子) full of water. With a bowl they pour water from the jar on themselves so that other people do not see their bodies. The Thai always wear a long piece of cloth called a pasin around their bodies. They wear this when they are bathing. '

Dear Sir/Madam,
I have recently saw a discussion activity in China Daily, whose topic is Change For a Better China, so I'm writing to tell you something about the change of my village.
My little village Hartwell, whose population is about 5 , 000 is titled one of "Australia's Nicest Towns". However, it was not so beautiful in the past , the local residents there used to cut down trees to make fires which caused air pollution. To improve the situation, the local government made laws to ban these harmful activities and encourage clean energy. From then on, the pollution had been decreased a lot and our small village had become more and more beautiful.
In my opinion, you should also take measures to encourage people to protect the environment. After all, a good environment and less pollution are beneficial to our health
Yours,
Jason Wu
