28、 When the first women to be admitted to Y ale arrived on campus 50 years ago,it had little idea how to support them at a place that was the oldest all-male college in the country.
Sixty-five percent of them had a class in which they were the only woman,according to an unpublished survey,conducted this year,of nearly half of the 575 female freshmen who entered Yale in 1969.Women weren’t permitted to have lunch at Mory’s,a dining club where important meetings took place.They were kept from most after-class activities.
Yale had been set up to educate“1,000 male leaders”and male students were selected on the basis of their future leadership.But women weren’t expected to be leaders.Instead,they were mainly evaluated（评估）on grit.
“It is a kind of determination,a pioneer quality,”Henry Chauncey,one of the Yale teachers,told The New York Times in 1969,“How to find the gritty women?Admit those who were raised with brothers—the more the better!”
“We had grit.But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t challenging because Yale wasn’t entirely prepared for us,”said Sally Birdsall,who was the only female in the economy class.She remembers that a professor warned her that he did not want to hear knitting needles（织针）in his class.
“I was upset,not because I had a knitting needle,but I was more scared,”she said.“It just gave me a very unwelcome feeling.”
In their post-college achievements,they were unusual among American women of their age,and faced challenges that have become familiar to highly educated women today:how to achieve educational,job and family goals when they’re all running on the same clock with men.
Eighty-two percent of the surveyed women had children,and their average age of first birth was 33.The national average at the time was 21.
Their experiences show how much has changed in 50 years—and how much has not.
【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word“gritty”in paragraph 4？
A.Pretty. B.Determined. C.Talented. D.Happy.
【2】Female students with______were more likely to be selected by Henry Chauncey.
A.better study records B.greater ability to lead
C.more brothers D.richer parents
【3】Why was Sally Birdsall upset in her class?
A.She felt she was not welcomed by the teacher.
B.She was the only female student in the class.
C.She was forbidden to use knitting needles.
D.She found the examinations too difficult.
【4】What can we learn about the first female students from the text?
A.They had to attend classes in separated rooms.
B.They could not have meals with male students.
C.They were expected to achieve higher goals.
D.They suffered unfair treatment in the university.
29、Press your fingers into the back of your head, just above your neck. If you feel a small bony bump (突起), you may find evidence of human evolution (进化): it could be your body responding to common smartphone use in the 21st century.
According to a recent study, published in Scientific Reports, more young people have bony bumps at the base of their skulls, right above the neck. Medical professionals call them enlarged external occipital protuberances (EEOPs, 枕外隆突).
Australian health scientist David Shahar, the author of the study, told the BBC that he’s seen more and more patients with EEOPs over the past ten years. Together with other researchers from the University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia, they examined 1,200 skull x-rays from people aged 18–30. They also measured the bumps and noted each person’s posture. They found that one in four people had developed these growths. This led to their theory that smartphones are the cause.
According to their research, looking down at our phones adds stress onto the top of our spines (脊柱). To prevent damage to our spines, Shahar believes our bodies add fresh bony bump to help reduce the extra stress.
Most of the EEOPs measured just a few millimeters. However, several subjects were found with EEOPs as large as 30 mm.
In his report, Shahar said the results “highlighted the need” for prevention. In other words, we need to change our posture while using our phones.
Many people assume our bones are solid and unmoving once we reach adulthood. In reality, they are alive and covered with blood vessels(血管), which allows them to develop in unique ways for each person.
Aside from EEOPs, other noticeable recent changes in human bodies include shrinking jaws, narrower elbows and generally smaller skeletons. The human body is adapting to modern life, so who knows what people in the future might look like?
【1】What did the recent study find about EEOPs?
A．They grow on one’s neck.
B．They can lead to many health problems.
C．They may stop growing when you reach 30.
D．They occur among more and more young people.
【2】What is the main cause of EEOPs according to the researchers?
A．Extra stress.
B．Aging bones.
C．Smartphone use.
D．Gene problems.
【3】Which of the following would Shahar probably agree with?
A．EEOPs increase the stress on our spines.
B．EEOPs are actually beneficial to our spines.
C．Young people’s bones adapt in similar ways.
D．Young people should exercise to improve their posture.
【4】What’s the writing purpose of the text?
A．To persuade readers to protect their spines.
B．To explain why human bodies develop EEOPs.
C．To show some recent changes in human bodies.
D．To recommend some healthy habits of using phones.
