Housework is an endless argument between lazy husbands and their hard-working wives, but women are warned not to expect men to share housework any time soon.
A study from Oxford University has found it seems impossible for men to be doing an equal share of housework before 2050. Mothers will continue to shoulder the burden(負(fù)擔(dān)) of childcare and housework for the next forty years, largely because housework such as cleaning and cooking is still thought of to be “women’s work”.
The gap(鴻溝) has narrowed slowly over the past 40 years. Women expect true equality(平等). But what makes them down is that it will take another forty years before it is achieved.
The research found that in the northern Europe, the burden of housework is shared more equally between men and women. In the UK, a woman spends around four hours and forty minutes each day on housework, compared with two hours and twenty-eight minutes for men. This is an improvement from the 1960s, when British women typically(典型地) spent six hours a day on housework, while men spent just 90 minutes every day.
But progress towards housework equality appears to be slowing in some countries. Dr Oriel Sullivan,a research reader, said, “we’ve looked at what is influencing the equality in the home, and we have found that certain tasks seem to be given according to whether they are viewed as ‘men’s work’ or ‘women’s work’.”
Dr Sullivan said cultural attitudes(態(tài)度) taught at school may decide the views of housework. “At school it is much easier for a girl to be a tomboy, but it is much more difficult for a boy to enjoy cooking and dancing,” she said.
36. Women will continue to do more housework before 2050 mainly because _________.
A. men are too busy to help B. they would like to do so
C. they can do better D. it is considered as women’s work
37. The underlined “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to (指代) ___________.
A. the research B. true housework
C. true equality D. the gap
38. From Paragraph 4 we know that in the UK ___________.
A. men now spend just 90 minutes a day on housework on average
B. women now are too busy with their work to do housework
C. women now spend less time on housework than before
D. housework is shared equally between men and women
39. _____________ is mentioned in the last two paragraphs(段) of the article.
A. What men think of housework
B. How much housework women spend on housework
C. What influences people’s view of housework
D. Why men should share housework
40. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Argument about housework between husbands and wives will end.
B. Women will be doing more housework than men until 2050.
C. Men are unable to help their wives with housework.
D. Women spend less time on housework while men spend more than before.

Eco-friendly(環(huán)保) rain gardens have beautiful flowers, trees and other plants that beautify the community. They are also healthy for the environment and the people living and working nearby. A rain garden is not very different from a traditional garden, It is just far more eco-friendly. Usually it is built lower than the ground.
Why Eco-friendly Rain Gardens Are Recommended
Rain gardens smartly used rain and storm water by temporarily(暫時) holding water from rain and storms and letting it soak(滲透) slowly into the ground before it runs into streams or enters the public drinking water supply. In this way, a rain garden keeps the water, allowing it to be used as needed by plants in the rain garden, rather than flowing(流) directly into nearby streams and going unused, The water will soak. Slowly into the ground within a day or two. This creates an advantage that the rain garden does not allow mosquitoes(蚊子) to breed(繁殖). This is a simple, attractive, and eco-friendly “green” way to treat storm water.
What's more, planting a rain garden helps cut down on pollution and make the environment better. The gardens don’t use expensive machinery and chemicals. They remove harmful chemicals in the rainwater and reduce the amount of pollution reaching streams and rivers by up to 30%.
How You Build Your Own Rain Gardens
Native(本地的) plants are recommended for rain gardens because they are more used to the local climate(氣候), soil, and water conditions. They may attract local wildlife such as native birds. Water your rain garden right after planting and once a week. Don’t water it if you have had at least an inch of rain during the week. You needn’t take much care of it once the plants have a necessary root system(根系統(tǒng)).
Often, local governments and private businesses develop large rain gardens in their yards and in public parks. However, you can do your own part. You don't need to be an environmental engineer to create a rain garden. Just start by building smaller rain gardens in your yards.

B) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容和首字母提示，填寫所缺單詞，并將答案填寫在答題卡標(biāo)號為66～75的相應(yīng)位置上。
Leonardo da Vinci's(達芬奇) mother may have been a Chinese slave(奴隸) according to a new research by an Italian -Angelo Paratico. He has spent the last 20 years living and working in Hong Kong, researching the links(聯(lián)系) b 66 his homeland and China.
It is believed that Leonardo da Vinci's mother was named Caterina, who, according to some reports, was a local farmer. But Mr. Paratico's new work leads to a d 67 explanation.
Speaking to the South China Morning Post, Mr. Paratico said, “I am s 68 that Leonardo's mother was from the East, but to make her a Chinese, we need to use a deductive method (演繹法).”
Angerlo Paratico has s 69 many documents(文獻). He found that one wealthy friend of Leonardo's father’s had a slave called Caterina. After Leonardo's date of b 70 , she disappeared from the documents. “She was no longer working there and could not be found,” Paratico a 71 . Supporting his opinion, he said, “During the period, countries like Italy and Spain were f 72 of slaves from the East.”
He said that there were certain aspects(方面) of Da Vinci's life and works which suggest a Chinese link. An e 73 is that he was writing with his left hand from left to right. And he was a vegetarian(素食者), which was not common. Mona Lisa(蒙娜麗莎) is probably a picture of his mother. On the back of Mona Lisa, there is a Chinese landscape and e 74 her face looks Chinese.
Mr. Paratico said the only way to s 75 the mystery is to extract(提取) some DNA. But he said he preferred to let the mystery to remain mysterious.
