Should we say goodbye to chivalry (骑士精神) in the age of sex equality?

Chivalry began as a response to the violence of the Middle Ages. PierMassimo Forni, the founder of the Civility Institute, says chivalry “as a form of treatment inspired by the sense that there was something special about women and that they deserve added respect.”

Today “chivalry” is often used as a term for “gentlemanly” behavior, related to “fair sex”, honor, courage and loyalty.

But we can hardly see chivalry nowadays with many women demanding to be treated equally in the workplace.

According to a 2013 survey carried out by the British Daily Mail, only one in seven men will offer their seat to a woman on a bus or train; over three-quarters of men don’t offer to help carry a heavy bag or suitcase for women.

In many cases, it’s not because these men are being insensitive, but on the contrary, they say they are unwilling to help women because they are worried about making them embarrassed.

These men may worry too much. According to the same survey, only seven percent of women view acts like holding open doors as unpleasant.

“Men seem confused by the modern ‘sex equality’ message”, psychologist and relationship expert Donna Dawson told the Daily Mail.

“This message was meant for the workplace and was never meant to replace good manners. Men will always be the stronger sex physically, so it is natural for them to show consideration for women.”

So, should the acts of chivalry be brought back? US writer Emily Smith says chivalry is what we should all long for. Many people are predicting the death of chivalry, but chivalry is not dead yet. Slowly but surely, chivalry is making a come-back.

1. The question at the very beginning of the passage is used to _____.

A. express the author’s curiosity

3.Some men are not willing to help women because _____.

C. they are afraid of women

D. they had no good manners

The pickle jar（泡菜坛）, as I can remember, sat beside the dresser in my parents’ bedroom. When ready for bed, Dad would toss any coins in his pockets into the jar. As they dropped, they landed with a merry jingle.

Whenever the jar was full, Dad would roll up the coins. Every time he slid the box of rolled coins across the counter at the bank toward the cashier, he would smile proudly and say,“All for my son’s college.”

We would always celebrate each deposit by stopping for an ice cream cone. Dad would show me the coins in his change, saying “When we get home, we’ll start filling the jar again.” He always let me drop the first coins into the empty jar. “You might have to get to college on loose change,” he said. “But you’ll get there.”

As years passed, I went to college, got married and took a job.

Once, while visiting my parents, I noticed the jar was gone. It had served its purpose. My dad was a man of few words and never lectured me on the values of determination, perseverance or faith. The jar had taught me those far better than the most flowery of words could have done.

Soon, my daughter Jessica was born. We spent Christmas that year with my parents. After dinner, Mom and Dad sat next to each other, taking turns holding their first grandchild. When Jessica began crying, my wife Susan took her from Dad’s arms to put her in my parents’ room.

Susan came back, tears in her eyes and led me into the room. “Look,” she said softly. To my amazement, there, next to the dresser, stood the old pickle jar, as if never removed, the bottom already covered with coins. I walked over to it, dug down into my pocket, and pulled out several coins. Choked by emotion, I dropped them into the jar.

Dad had slipped quietly into the room when I looked up. Our eyes locked, but neither of us spoke, because we knew nothing had to be said.

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. The author and his wife were grateful for what parents had done.

B. The jar again in the bedroom reminded themselves of the hard years.

C. The author felt disappointed when he found the jar gone.

D. The author felt embarrassed whenever his father mentioned the jar.

2.We can learn from the passage that 　　　　 .

A. any difficulty can be overcome with the family’s support.

B. parents teach much more through their action than their words.

C. saving is always a good habit to pass down to the next generation.

D. you need to reward yourself and celebrate regularly to keep up with your faith.

3.Which words best describe the author’s father?

A. Humorous and patient.　　　　　　　　　 B. Quiet but loving.

C. Generous and talkative.　　　　　　　　 D. Proud but strict.

4.The pickle jar in the article represents 　　　　 .

A. advice of parents.
