英语与四级阅读练习

Reading Comprehension. Directions: In this part, you will read four passages. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked by a), b), c) and d). You should decide on the best choice.

Which of the following is true according to the passage? a) Many women’s places are still in the home. b) Women’s places are no longer in the home. c) Many women’s jobs have something to do with TV. d) Women’s jobs are less important than before. 2.
