    1. Betty runs a bed and breakfast somewhere in the picturesque countryside. She's planning to
purchase an eco-friendly dish soap with the natural fragrance of aloe. If the producer cares about nature
conservation, she will put more trust in this brand.
     2. Anne is a full-time housewife who always manages to live within her means. For example, she
prefers to choose the dish soap that holds out for very long. Besides, the soap with the fragrance of
flowers or fruit is much more to her taste.
    3. Marilyn works as a regional representative of a major company. Occupied with her business as she
is, she often spares some time after work to prepare some desserts. She is keen on trying something new; she is allergic to certain flower and fruit fragrant scents. She needs a dish soap with no harm to her skin.
    4. Margaret has just moved in a fully furnished apartment. But the cupboard in the kitchen is relatively
smaller. Thus, she will have no other alternative but to purchase smaller dining items, such as dish soap in
a smaller bottle. Furthermore, she is an environmental activist.
     5. Kitty serves as a kitchen steward of a fancy restaurant, in charge of cleaning large quantities of oily
dishes every day. She suggests the owner select a dish soap worth the money. It is, by all means, an ideal
choice for her if it features super cleaning power and meanwhile can keep the hands soft, but not dry.
     A. Life Tree Dish Soap
     A few drops of Life Tree Dish Soap will do a nice job on dishes. It comes in a smaller bottle than
other dish soaps, which makes it more convenient for users. Life Tree does not use animal ingredients and
is without a smell. So if you're looking for a really environmentally friendly dish soap, look at Life Tree.
     B. Method Dish Soap
     Method Dish Soap works safely when used to wash dishes. It is concentrated, so a little goes a long
way. You just need to lift and squeeze it to get a small amount of the soap from the bottle. The soap
comes in various fruit fragrances (香味), such as orange and green apple.
     C. Bio Pac Dish Soap
     Bio Pac Dish Soap , with aloe (蘆薈) and tea tree oil, has a fresh smell. It contributes a lot to green
cleaning, for it is made of natural ingredients. What's more, the company gives 10 percent of its profits to
wilderness protection.
    D. Seventh Generation Dish Soap
     Seventh Generation Dish Soap cleans as well as any other soap. Also, it's very environmentally friendly. The product is gentle on your hands. For those who are sensitive to certain fragrances, like flowers and
fruit, Seventh Generation is a great choice.
     E. Citrus Fresh Dish Soap
     Pleasantly fresh and cheap, the wonderful formula (配方) of the soap delivers extraordinary cleaning
power to handle even the most difficult jobs. But with extras of aloe, calendula and other natural skin
softeners, it actually helps prevent skin dryness and trouble while you do the dishes.
F. Dish Soap-Mint Sage, 16 oz
    An all-natural dishwashing soap that has long-lasting suds (泡沫) cleans without the harsh ingredients
in it that can irritate (刺激) sensitive skin. This unique dish soap contains natural borax and the fragrance
of flowers that work together to make things clean.

A
Dear Betty,
My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home. I accepted the invitation, and I’m excited about going, but I’m a little nervous about it, too. The social customs in my country are different from those here, so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.
Should I bring a gift, such as candy or flowers? Should I arrive on time or a little late?  At the dinner table, how can I know which fork or knife to use? How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?
Yours,
Knowing Nothing
Dear Knowing Nothing,
It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party. Flowers are always welcome, or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.
You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late. Don’t get there early. If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late, you should call and tell them.
Try to relax at the dinner table. If you don’t know how to use the right fork, knife or spoon, just watch the other guests, and follow them. If you still have no idea of what to do, don’t be shy about asking the person next to you; it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.
If you like the food, say so. Of course, you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness. It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.
Yours,
Betty

閱讀理解
     Betty and Harold have been married for years.But one thing still puzzles old Harold.How is it that he
can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa,talking,go out to a ballgame,come back three and a
half hours later,and they’re still sitting on the sofa?Talking?
     What in the world,Harold wonders,do they have to talk about?
     Betty shrugs.Talk?We’re friends.
     Researching this matter called friendship,psychologist Lilian Rubin spent two years interviewing more
than two hundred women and men.No matter what their age,their job,their sex,the results were completely clear:women have more friendships than men,and the difference in the content and the quality of those
friendships is “marked and unmistakable.”
      More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend.Those who
could were likely to name a woman.Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend,and almost always it was a woman.More married men than women named their wife/husband as a
best friend,most trusted person,or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress(感情危機(jī)).“Most women,”says Rubin,“identified at least one,usually more,trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment,and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.”
    “In general,”writes Rubin in her new book,“women’s friendships with each other rest on shared
emotions and support,but men’s relationships are marked by shared activities.”For the most part,Rubin says,interactions(交往)between men are emotionally controlled-a good fit with  the social requirements of
“manly behavior.”
    “Even when a man is said to be a best friend,”Robin writes,“the two share little about their innermost
feelings.Whereas a woman’s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn’t unusual to hear a man say he didn’t know his friend’s marriage was in serious trouble until he
appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.”

1.What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that_____.

A.he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband
B.women show little interest in ballgames
C.women have so much to share
D.he finds his wife difficult to talk to

2.Rubin’s study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to  turn to _____.

A.a male friend   
B.her parents   
C.a female friend
D.her husband

3.According to the text,which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?

A.Ending his marriage without good reason.
B.Complaining about his marriage trouble.
C.Spending too much time with his friends.
D.Going out to ballgames too often.

4.Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph?

A.Women are more serious than men about marriage.
B.Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.
C.Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.
D.Women depend on others in making decisions.

5.The research done by psychologist Rubin centers around_____.

A.friendships of men and women
