Today we have the second report explaining how to prepare fish by drying or smoking them．We talked last week about the first steps of cleaning and salting freshly caught fish．
To dry fish, you will need either a drying table or a place to hang them．If a table is used, it should have a top made of wire screen or thin pieces of wood with space between each piece．
Lay the cleaned and salted fish on the table．Be sure that air can flow around the fish from all sides．
For best results, put the drying table under a tree．Turn the fish over every other day．Small fish will dry in about three days if the air is dry．Large fish will take a week or ten days to dry．
After the fish have dried, place them in a basket．Cover them with clean paper or large leaves．Then put the basket in a cool, dry place off the ground．
Make sure as much of the saltwater as possible is removed before you smoke the fish．
The smoking can be done in a large, round metal container．Remove the top of the drum and cut a small opening on one side at the bottom．
Cover the top with a strong wire screen, where you put the fish．Build a small fire in the drum by reaching in through the opening at the bottom．
Wood from fruit trees makes good fuel for your fire．It will give the smoked fish good color and taste．One way to get a lot of smoke is to use green wood, not dried wood．
You should smoke the fish for five days or longer if you plan to store them for a long time．After that, wrap them in clean paper, put the fish in baskets and keep them in a cool, dry place off the ground．

In drying or smoking fish, the following tools are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT ________．
April 22,2010 will be the 18th celebration of the annual Take Our Daugluers to Work Day(TOD), a project the National Ms．Foundation for Women of America(NFW)developed to expose girls to expanding opportunities for women in the workplace．
The program offers, millions of girls a first - hand view of the many career opportunities available in their futures．Now that women make up 46 peroent of the U．S．workforce, girls can find role models in every occupational field-from politics to molecular biology to professional athletics, to name just a few．TOD encourages girls to focus on their abilities and opportunities, not just their appearance．
The NFW developed the project more than a decade ago to address the self-esteem problems that many girls experience when they enter adolescence．At school, boys often receive more encouragement in the classroom, especially in math．science and computer science, the academic fields that tend to lead to the highest salaries．Women receive on average only 73 cents for every dollar that men are paid．and remain vastly underrepresented(数量不足)in top executive positions and technology fields．TOD aims to give girls the confidence and inspiration they need to develop successful careers, particularly in non-traditional fields．
Perhaps because the program had become so widespread and successful, TOD had been criticized for excluding boys．and it was expanded in 2003to include boys．The program's official website states that the program was changed in order to provide both boys and girls with opportunities to explore careers at an age when they are more flexible in tenns of gender stereotyped roles．"We should also show boys that becoming a child care provider is as acceptable a choice as becoming a police officer or CEO," added Sara K．Gould．executive director of the NFW．
