A trend that has emerged recently is the sharing of childcare (31) __________ between husband and wife.
Young couples will try to arrange their work schedules so that they work opposite hours or shifts in order that
one parent is always home with the children. Since childcare is expensive, this saves money for the young
couple trying to establish themselves and provide a secure environment for the family. Husband and wife may
also share household chores. Some fathers are just as capable as mothers at cooking dinner, changing and
bathing the baby, and doing the laundry.
In some cases, the woman’s salary is for family (32)__________ and the father becomes the “househusband."
These cases are still fairly rare. One positive trend, however, is that fathers seem to be spending more time
with their children. In a recent survey, 41% of the children sampled said they spend equal time with their
mothers and fathers. “This is one of our most significant cultural changes,” says Dr. Leon Hoffman, who co-
directs the Parent Child Center at the New York Psychoanalytic Society. In practice, for over 30 years, Hoffman
has found "a very dramatic difference in the involvement of the father in everything from care-taking to
general decision (33)__________ around kids' lives.”
Another factor has recently been added to the childcare formula. The number of people who work from home
nearly full-time rose 23% from the last decade. The (34)_________ of technology - computers, faxes,
teleconferencing - has made it easier for at-home workers to be constantly in touch. Will this new flexibility in
the workforce bring a positive change for the (35)__________ of children? Only time will tell.

32.A. payment B. expenses C. fares D. fees
33.A. making B. creating C. holding D. giving
34.A. accessible B. accessibly C. access D. accessibility
35.A. far B. some C. even D. much
The most usual way to entertain friends at home is to invite them for a meal, either in the
evening of at lunch time on a Sunday. In smaller communities, for example a country village, people also
invite each other for a drink before a meal, for morning coffee or afternoon tea.
When guests are invited for a meal, they often sit and chat while they have a drink before the
meal, and coffee is usually served afterwards. Several friends are sometimes invited at once to make a
small party. These parties are almost always informal. Formal occasions, when written invitations are sent
out and people dress formally, rarely take place in people's homes, although they did in the past.
 Larger parties are arranged to celebrate a particular event. Children's birthdays are often
celebrated with a tea party for the child's friends. The meal will often be followed by party games. Parties
are held to celebrate a person's coming of age (formerly at 21 but now at 18), a couple's silver wedding
anniversary (after 25 years of marriage), a couple's engagement and New Year's Eve. In the USA a
person's 40th birthday is often marked with a special celebration. A housewarming party is sometimes held
to invite friends to one's new home.
In summer, if the weather is fine, people may hold a barbecue in the garden. A much grander,
more formal occasion is a garden party, held in the afternoon, when tea is served.
36.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. People don't hold any parties to celebrate a particular event.
B. People often sit and chat before a meal they are invited for.
C. People often hold garden parties on informal occasions.
D. People don't invite each other for a drink before a meal in a country village.
37.When are written invitations sent out?
A. On formal occasions B. On informal occasions C. On a Sunday evening D. On a Sunday morning
38.The word "grander" in paragraph 4 mostly means ____________.
A. more exciting B. more convenient C. more important D. more pleasant
39.What is the purpose of a housewarming party?
A. To invite friends to one's new home. B. To mark a person's 40th birthday.
C. To entertain the child's friends. D. To celebrate a couple's wedding anniversary

The concept of urban agriculture may conjure up images of rooftop, backyard or community gardens
scattered among downtown city streets and surrounding neighborhoods. But in the Seattle area, and within
and beyond the Puget Sound region, it means a great deal more. “Urban agriculture doesn’t necessarily
equate to production that occurs only in a metropolitan urban area,” says Jason Niebler, who directs the
Sustainable Agriculture Education (SAgE) Initiative at Seattle Central Community College. “It means we are
providing for growing population food needs from surrounding rural landscapes, as well as from the core
urban landscape.”
Picture a series of concentric circles, with an urban core that produces some food at varying
capacities, surrounded by a series of outlying rings of small farms that become increasingly more rural with
distance. The hope is that such land use planning, from the inner core to the outer rings, will encourage
local ecologically sound sustainable food production. This, in turn, will create local jobs and decrease
reliance on distant food products that originate from petroleum-intensive large scale farms.
That’s the idea behind SAgE, believed to be the nation’s first metropolitan-based community college
sustainable agriculture program that emphasizes farming practices across diverse landscape types from
urban
168centers to surrounding rural environs. “It’s small scale agriculture with an urban focus,” Niebler says.
“Any urban population, large or small, can practice sustainable agriculture, improve food security and
protect the environment, which ultimately results in resilient food systems and communities.”
SAgE is a part of the National Science Foundation’s Advanced Technological Education (ATE)
Program,
which is providing the project with $157,375 over two years. ATE’s goal is to support projects that
strengthen
the skills of technicians who work in industries regarded as vital to the nation’s prosperity and security. The
support largely goes to community colleges that work in partnership with universities, secondary
schools,
businesses and industries, as well as government agencies, which design and implement model workforce
initiatives.
The SAgE project focuses on the environmental, socioeconomic, political and cultural issues related
to sustainable food systems within Puget Sound watersheds through student and community education and
research, and technological innovation. The curriculum offers courses that cover such issues as agricultural
ecology, urban food systems, food politics and ethics, soil science, sustainable food production and
technology, the integration of food and forests, and career opportunities.
“We’ve created a curriculum that is fundamental in nature, addressing the principles of sustainable
agriculture and what a food system is – how it functions both locally and globally,” Niebler says. “These
courses are challenging, robust and inspirational. One of the really wonderful things about them is that we
offer service learning opportunities, where students volunteer a portion of their time to working with local
partner organizations. They can do a research project, or a service learning option. The ideal would be to
prompt students into careers that involve sustainable practices in an urban agriculture setting.”
