The differences between men and women's friendships

Betty and Harold have been married for years. But one thing still puzzles (困扰) old Harold. How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and they're still sitting on the sofa and talking?

What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that women have so much to share.

Betty shrugs. Talk? We're friends.

Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men. Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to a female friend.

"In general," writes Rubin in her new book, "women's friendships with each other lie on shared emotions and support, but men's relationships are marked by shared activities.”

“ Men keep their innermost(内心深处的) feelings to themselves. " Rubin writes, " Whereas(然而) a woman's closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage. However, a man by society doesn’t complain about his marriage trouble. it wasn't unusual to hear a man say he didn't know his friend's marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa. "

1.What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that ________.

2.Rubin's study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to _________.

3.What do women's friendships with each other lie on in general?

4.According to the last paragraph, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?

5.What is the article about? ________.

Vingo sat in front of three men and three women. One of the women sat beside him and introduced herself. “We’re going to Florida,” she said brightly. “What some wine?” He smiled and thanked her.

“Are you married”

“I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?” She said.

“Well, when I was in prison I wrote to my wife,” he said. “I told her that I was going to be away for a long time, and that if she couldn’t stand it, if the kids kept asking questions, or if it hurt her too much, well, she could forget me. Get a new guy, I said—she’s a wonderful woman. I told her she didn’t have to write to me. And she didn’t. Not for three and a half years.”

“And you’re going home now?”

“Yeah,” he said shyly. “Well, last week, I wrote to her again. We used to live in Brunswick, and there’s an oak tree(橡树) just as you come into town. I told her that if she didn’t have a new guy and if she’d take me back, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the tree, and I ‘d get off and come home. If she didn’t want me, forget it ---no handkerchief, and I’d go on through.”

Now Brunswick was 20 miles, 10 miles, and then five. Then, suddenly, all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances of joy—they saw the oak tree covered with yellow handkerchiefs—20 of them, 30 of them, maybe hundreds, a tree that stood like a flag of welcome billowing (飘扬) in the wind.

1.Where did the conservation between Vingo and the woman probably happen?

A. On a bus   B. In a coffee shop.  C. On a plane.   D. In a prison.

2.How long hadn’t Vingo and his wife live together?

A. Only one year. B. About ten years.  C. About seven years  D. Nearly four years

3.When Vingo was in prison, his wife ___________.

A. often wrote to him        B. married another man

C. still loved him as before    D. taught the kids at home

4.According to the young people, the handkerchiefs on the oak tree were ______.

A. flags of honesty  B. flags of happiness  C. a sign of freedom  D. a sign of wisdom

Friendship can deeply affect the physical and mental health of both men and women. Studies show that people who have no friends or who are lonely, are more likely to die earlier, get sick more often and suffer greater physical wear and tear(折磨）than those who have a support system of friends.

Sometimes, family members may be more likely to give you advice or tell you what you don't want to hear. It may not be as good as a friend who will listen to you and guide you, but support your decisions anyway. The most important elements about friendship are those who suffer support and do not judge your decisions based on society.

One reason for the link between social support and good health practice seems to be that people who feel cared for by others are less stress-out and protected against the symptoms(症状）of depression and loneliness.

Generally, women benefit most because of how they deal with stress. Women are more social in how they deal with stress than men while men are more likely to have a "fight or flight” reaction. Women also tend to have larger, denser social network, in which more people know each other and help each other, while men typically have smaller groups of friends and will rely on their wives or other important people for more support. While all these affect people psychologically (心理上）_, friendship brings comfort that reduces the ill effects of stress, and the sex difference also contributes to the differ­ence in the length of one's life time.

1.In the author's opinion, a real friend should________ .

A．tell you what to do even if you refuse to hear it

B．try to persuade you to change your mind quickly

C．judge your decision according to his, her experience

D．give you advice but respect your own decision

2.Women benefit more from friendship than men because________.

A．women are always cared for by more people than men

B．women are usually less stress-out when staying with others

C．women are more likely to solve problems with friends’ help

D．women can always keep more long-life friendship than men

3.According to the passage we can infer that ________.

A．it's good for women to tell men what they should do or not

B．friends are always more important than family members

C．men don't want to share their problems with many people

D．the trend that women can live longer makes them more relaxed

4.This passage mainly talks about________.

A．why people should develop friendship

B．when friendship affects people's health

C．people’s different attitudes towards friendship

D．the friendship which can make people live longer

The law says women should have the chance of doing the same jobs as men and earn the same as them. The reality is very different. Women lose because, 25 years after the Equal Pay Act, many of them still get paid less than men. They lose because they do lower－paid jobs which men just won’t consider. And they lose because they are the ones who interrupt a career to have children. All this is reported in an independent study ordered by the Government’s women’s unit. The biggest problem isn’t equal pay in workplaces such as factories. It is the sort of work women do.

Make a list of low－paid－jobs,  then consider who does them. Try nurses, secretaries, cleaners, clerks, teachers in primary schools, dinner ladies and child－care helpers. Not a lot of men among that group, are there? Yet some of those jobs are really important. Surely no one would deny that about nurses and teachers, for a start. So why do we reward the people who do them so poorly? There can be only one answer—because they are women. This is not going to be put right overnight. But the government, which employs a lot of them, and other bosses have to make a start.

It is disgraceful（可耻的） that we have gone into the 21st century still treating women like second－class citizens.

1.

Women should have the chance of doing the same jobs and getting the same pay as men_________.

．We can learn from the text that what really matters in this problem is_________.

A．that women interrupt a career to have children

B．what sort of work women do

C．because they are women

D．what unfair pay women get in workplaces

3.

．Which of the following best describe the writer’s idea?

A．Women and men should get equal pay for equal work.

B．Women should strengthen themselves.

C．The government ought to protect women against getting paid less than men.

D．Some of the jobs that women do are of great importance.

4.

Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?

A．Work to give women a fair pay deal     B．The equal pay act

C．The sort of work women do            D．The biggest problem about women

高二英语阅读理解简单题查看答案及解析

After successfully serving their term for 4 years, military service men and women are given the choice to stay in the military or return to civilian（平民）life.

For some, having to readjust to civilian life is one of the most challenging assignments our returning soldiers and marines（水兵）will ever have to undertake. While people may think readjusting should be simple, they must take into consideration all the physical and mental stress our servicemen went through.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder（创伤后应急障碍）,　or PTSD, is a mental disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat（打仗）.

Most survivors of trauma return to normal given a little time. In the military, the marines are given a two-week course on how to return to civilian life.

Unfortunately, some will have stress reactions that do not go away on their own, or may even get worse over time. These individuals may develop PTSD.

People who suffer from PTSD have difficulty sleeping because they are often reliving the experience through nightmares（梦魇）and flashbacks, and feel deserted or often stand off, and these symptoms can be severe enough and last long enough to significantly damage the person’s daily life.

Fullerton College, like most colleges, has its own Veteran’s（老兵）Office. Ray Bustos has been running the office for 3 years. Bustos acts as a liaison（联络） for the school and the veteran students. He makes sure the veterans returning to school get the right benefits. There are various types of financial aid for soldiers and marines. He strongly encourages the use of the Veterans Affairs website.

The website is very informative and extremely helpful for veterans as well as for friends and relatives of veterans who want to learn more.
