An old man went to live with his son, his daughter-in-law, and a four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was very poor, and he couldn’t walk steadily (平稳地). The family ate together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Rice often dropped on the floor.

The son and the daughter-in-law became angry with the old man, so they put a small table in the corner. There, the grandfather ate alone, while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the table. Since the grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.

The four-year-old son watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with a piece of wood on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, “What are you making?” The boy answered, “Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up.” The four-year-old son smiled and went back to work. The words struck the parents so hard that they were in silence. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks (脸颊). Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the husband took grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table.

How do you get a man to do his share of the housework? If you are like most women, you’ve faced this question the hard way.

A man will enjoy a clean, orderly house, but he usually won’t make the effort to clean or organise it. This doesn’t mean that a woman has to do all the housework; she may have to manage many of the household duties, and request her partner’s participation. A woman can often say that men and women should take equal responsibility for housework.

Very few men are raised to be fully responsible for housework, and many men look on housework as women’s work. On the other hand, most men will readily work around the yard, make repairs and complete projects on weekends or evenings, and it’s important that you give your man appreciation for those things, too. Most men will take on a little additional housework around the house if asked politely. They are even more likely to do housework if they can choose what they want to do, and do it without being monitored.

Here’s the key: men want to feel that they are doing housework either because they want to do a task, or because they simply want to please their women. Men are much less likely to take on household tasks they consider uninteresting and unimportant. In other words, men are likely to do a household task just for the good of the house.

【小题1】The passage is mainly about how to _______.
A.get men to take on some houseworkB.get men to serve their families
C.praise men’s houseworkD.make men do all the housework
【小题2】Accordin g to the passage, a man _______.
A.is willing to do housework
B.likes to be told to do housework
C.is taught to be responsible for housework from childhood
D.likes a clean house but doesn’t make efforts to clean it
【小题3】In order to get men to do some housework, women should often_______.
A.order them to do their shareB.ask them to do some housework politely
C.blame men’s lazinessD.monitor men’s work
【小题4】According to the passage, the underlined sentence in the last paragraph means that men won’t ____.
A.work without any paymentB.do unimportant household tasks
C.do housework without women’s praiseD.please their wives

One afternoon, after finishing shopping in a supermarket, my family and I went to the checkout. I suddenly thought we didn’t need any of the junk, and we abandoned all of those, saving $300.

That got me thinking about all our pointless expenses in life. With a promise that we’d stop if it was killing us, I convinced the family to take the leap into frugality (节俭). The rules were that we would buy nothing for 30 days except absolutely essentials.

Our adventure began with a great start. By 9 a.m., my wife, Ruth, had already made cakes from old strawberries and picked flowers I didn’t even know we had in the garden. I cleared the car by hand for the first time for years. I read and returned the neighbor’s newspaper before he woke up. Total spending on the first day: $0.

As days turned into weeks, we became so proficient at living frugally. We started riding our bikes to save gas. My child’s finger painting was recycled as gift wrap for the homemade presents. We started to use an Internet application like Skype for free phone calls and ask neighbors with gardens for extra vegetables and herbs.

In the end, we saved more than $2000 by not spending for a month. When we began, I imagined we would rush out the moment we were done and buy a lot of things in the supermarket, then maybe hit the mall or go to the movies.

【小题1】We can infer from the passage that before that very afternoon, the family _________.
A.had had higher income
B.had had a good habit of saving money
C.had often spent money without thinking much
D.hadn’t realized they would have met financial problems
【小题2】How many things were mentioned about the things the family did to save on the first day of the “30 days”?
A.Two.B.Three.
C.Four.D.Five.
【小题3】What does the underlined word “proficient” mean in the fourth paragraph?
A.Arranged.B.Thrilled.C.Disappointed.D.Skilled.
【小题4】This passage is mainly about _________.
A.how a family managed their daily lifeB.a family’s no-buying try
C.a family’s way of solving life problemsD.how a new idea came up
