女性读者向我问得最多的问题是──如何 能既拥有成功的事业又拥有幸福的家庭？她们中的很多人已经在事业上获得成功了，她们实际上要问的是如何同时获得一个幸福的家庭。 Here's the #1 question I get from women readers: How can I have a successful career and a happy family? Many of these readers already are successful in their careers. What they're really asking is how to also have a happy family. 对我们女性而言，这是一个非常新的问 题。许多世纪以来，女人的职业就是“照顾家人”。我们活着是为了取悦父亲、丈夫以及儿子。我们为他人服务，获得的回报是一生安稳的保障。 This is a very new question for us. For centuries, women's careers were our family. Our career was 'caregiver.' We lived to please our fathers, our husbands, our sons. In return for our service, we received a lifetime guarantee of stability and security. 然而，这种“交易”如今已经消失。虽然我 们依然在履行照顾家人的职责，但对许多人来说（如果不是大多数人的话），婚姻正成为巨大的不安全感的来源。 But today that bargain has vanished. We're still doing our part by serving our families. But for many if not most, marriage now is a source of deep insecurity. 大多数年轻人的婚姻如今以离婚告终 Most young marriages now end in divorce 在步入婚姻殿堂时，没有人会抱着这种 想法──“有一天我们会厌恶对方”，但这正是中国大多数80后一代的经历。根据民政部的统计，2005年时，80后的离婚率就已经达到了57%。 No one enters a marriage thinking, 'Someday we'll hate each other,' but that's been precisely the experience of most of China's born-post-1980 generation. The Ministry of Civil Affairs reports that by 2005, the divorce rate for this generation already had reached 57 percent. 中国历史上首次出现了在破碎家庭中长大的一代儿童。女性在离婚期间常常遭 受巨大的痛苦，但至少我们可以掌控自己的生活然后继续向前。然而，我们的孩子却不能。在离婚事件中，他们才是真正意义上的受害者。 For the first time in Chinese history, a generation of children now is growing up in broken households. Women often suffer greatly during divorce, but at least we can take charge of our lives and move on. Our children, on the other hand, cannot. When divorce occurs, they're victims in the truest sense. 离婚对孩子的影响可能会持续一生，我恰好对此有直接的了解。我1969年在美国出生，正如中国现在的情况一样，上世纪70年代正是离婚潮首次在美国爆发之时。我们那一代人是第一代成长在离异家庭的孩子。虽然我的父母一直都在 一起生活，但那些年我还是目睹了父母The impacts on children of divorce can last a lifetime. I happen to know this first-hand, since I was born in America in 1969, and it was in the 1970s that divorce first exploded in America as is happening now in China. My generation was the first to grow up as the children of divorce.

二十一世纪报纸高三版阅读文章 1. My Italian Treat (BCAD) Everyone has heard of the famous Italian dishes of pasta (面食) and pizza, far fewer have actually had the chance to taste them in Italy. But I was lucky enough to visit the country with my school and enjoyed my fill of these and other lively foods. We went to the town of Vietri, Salerno, in southern Italy. On the fist day, we were told that dinner would be at 7:30, but it actually began at 7:50. Our teachers had told us in advance about the relaxed pace of Italian life ! But still, we were starving (饥饿的). However, once it did, it was worth all the waiting. The sea-food salad was delicious, not too sour and not too salty. The cheeses were a different matter; I had heard they were famous, but it took me a while to get used to them. The fruits were excellent, so fresh they tasted as if they had just been picked. As we had been banned from drinking alcohol, we sipped (吮吸) water, instead of wine at meals. There were two types, one was ordinary, the other sparkling (发泡的) water. It tasted like a flavorless soda. During the visit, we discovered that real Italian pizza was very different from anything we had tasted before. It was cheap, savory(美味的) and had a soft texture (质地). My favorite was a plain one with just a cheese topping. Once I ate a whole one, almost 20cm in diameter (直径). I so stuffed (塞满) myself that I felt ill at the end of the meal. To be honest, unlike the other, I didn‘t much like the pasta. Perhaps I am too much in love with Chinese noodles to really take to them. My friend and I walked the whole of the town trying out different kinds of pastry (糕饼). The combination of sugar, cream and chocolate made them delicious. But if you hadn‘t had a sweet tongue, you would not have liked them, since they were very sweet. Every day, last thing in the evening, we had ice cream at a local store. We tried all the flavors ! It was so satisfying to go to bed on a full stomach with the memory of a whole day of eating fresh in your mind. Here‘s hoping that you too get to sample the wonderful food of Italy ! 1. In the article, the writer mainly tells us about _________. A. Italian pizza B. her experience of trying Italian foods C. the beautiful sights of Italy D. Italy‘s mysterious traditions 2. On the fist day in Italy, the dinner was delayed by 20 minutes probably because __________. A. the food they ordered was difficult to prepare B. waiting would give them a bigger appetite C. Italians have a relaxed attitude to life D. the Italians weren‘t very welcoming 3. During their stay in Italy, the writer enjoyed all of the following Italian foods EXCEPT____. A. pasta B. pizza C. sea-food salad D. pastries 4. The article tells us that the writer ___________. A. fell in love with Italian cheeses at her first bite B. felt ill after trying many flavors of ice cream C. doesn‘t have a sweet tongue D. was not allowed to drink alcohol in Italy 2.
