No respectable woman would dream of entering what was strictly a “man's world”. Even if she would, what could she do? Men were sure that no woman could do a job well outside her home. This was a widely-accepted idea. When the famous Bronte sisters began writing books in 1846, they had to resort to using men's names as aliases. Teaching was the first profession opened to women, soon after 1800. But even that was not easy for women to take because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to take in women. Nursing was regarded as a respectable profession for women only after Florence Nightingale won high credit for her nursing career and became famous. Miss Nightingale opened the first training school for nursing in 1860 in England. The invention of typewriters in 1867 helped to bring women out of their homes to join the business world. Because women are careful and have nimble fingers, businessmen found that they were well suited to this kind of work. By 1890, tens of thousands of women were working in schools, hospitals, shops, offices, and factories both in England and the States. Some even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea of women working in business and other circles was accepted. （1）Oberlin College was the first college in America ________. A.where teaching was a profession only open to women B.where girls could get advanced education C.to train women to be teachers and nurses D.to accept women only as professors and students （2）It can be inferred from the text that besides nursing, Florence Nightingale was also ________.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Two hundred years after Charles Darwin's birth, studies have found new details of his life at the University of Cambridge. Six leather-bound ledgers (皮革账本) discovered in the university show this. He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time. He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor (裁缝), hatter and barber made sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christ's College's basic food was meat and beer. Darwin's bill topped 636 pounds during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later he described this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum (金额) would have been fairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century. In those days Cambridge was full of rich students living a pretty good life and Darwin was just one of them. And thus he had plenty of time for socializing or private study. He would be out shooting, collecting beetles, doing his scientific hobbies or visiting friends. He played cards and drank wine at night, just like students always have. A. Thanks to the richness, he was able to hire servants to help with the daily life. B. The findings were published on the Internet. C. So he paid five and a half pence extra each day to have vegetables. D. He enjoyed the kind of comfortable university life that most of today's students can only dream about. E. He had several people to help him to deal with the daily housework. F. When you look at the ledgers, you can find there were many rich students in Cambridge. G. The bills were paid by his wealthy father, Robert Darwin, a doctor. |
