16．It is believed by experts that a weather pattern called El Nino caused the drought in Australia．EL Nino，referring to the Christ son in Spanish，was first used by people in Peru to show the abnormal weather conditions along the eastern Pacific coast around Christmas．EL Nino causes different weather in different parts of the world．It causes a lot of rain and  floods in some places．It causes droughts in other places．Droughts can badly affect people and the land．El Nino lasts about a year．
In normal weather conditions，warm winds from South America blow from east to west across the Pacific Ocean．The winds bring early storms to Australia．These storms bring rain to Australia．
During an El Nino weather pattern the winds change direction．They blow from west to east across the Pacific Ocean．The storms no longer move across Australia．So Australia gets very little rain during El Nino．
The drought began in January，1982．El Nino often occurs at this time of year．But that year，El Nino was stronger than usual．There was very little rainfall in eastern Australia．There was also very little water in the rivers．The drought was at its worst in February，1983．At that time，the weather  was very hot．The forests and fields were very dry．Cotton growers couldn't plant their cotton．Sheep farmers had no grass for their animals to eat．So many of them died．Because the forests were dry，forest fires started quickly．Some of the fires burned for a month．Many forests were destroyed．Over 2，000people lost their houses in the fires and 75people died．
The Australian drought of l982-1983affected thousands of people and animals．The drought cost the country over  3，000，000，000．It was a reminder to Australians of how the weather could change their lives．
21．From the passage we know El Nino isD．
A．a powerful storm  
B．a place in Australia  
C．a cute boy  
D．a weather pattern

7．Once I complained to my husband that he wasn't helping enough with our daughter，and I gave him a long list of the parenting chores （家庭杂务） I was shouldering on my own．"But you like doing all that stuff，"he said．I thought about that while reading a new study about the responsibilities of parenting．Researchers asked 191 college professors，both men and women，who had children 2 or younger，the pleasure they experienced from childcare．

 On 16 out of 25 childcare tasks-like taking a child to the doctor or buying clothes for a child-women reported statistically higher levels of enjoyment than men．The only parenting issue that gave women less pleasure than it gave men was having to manage who does what for the child．On the whole，women's scores were 10 percent higher than men's．
    Women are also far more likely to take advantage of family-leave benefits to care for children．In the study，all the universities offered paid family leave，and 69 percent of the women took it，while only 12 percent of the men did．In Sweden，where family leave for both parents is particularly generous，men use about 20 percent of the 480-day benefit．Women use nearly all of it．
    It's difficult to know how cultural and economic pressures or biological functions influence parenting．Plenty of men change diapers （尿布），and studies show that mothers and fathers alike spend more time with children than they used to．Men have more than doubled the time they spend on childcare since 1985．Yet women still spend twice as much time with the kids as men，says the University of Maryland sociologist John Robinson．
 Notably in the study，the parenting activity that gave men the most pleasure （and women，too） was playing and talking with their kids．But when men were asked to rate how often they actually did those things，their scores were about 10 and 40 percent lower than women's．In the end，perhaps the issue is not that mothers are doing too many childcare tasks-my husband was right when he said I liked being a mother-but that men，for all their progress as fathers，are still missing out．

12．Early risers are most likely to be healthy，wealthy and wise，according to the old saying．But those who are early to bed and early to rise do not always have advantages，researchers say．They have found that night owls（夜猫子） are generally brighter and wealthier than those who are able to get up early in the morning．
Experts from the University of Madrid carried out tests on around 1，000 teenagers and found that those who preferred to stay up late showed the kind of intelligence to find good jobs and earn much money．Larks or"morning people"，however，often get better exam results，possibly because lessons are held at the wrong time of day for night owls．
The researchers examined the habits and body clocks of the young people to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep later in the morning，or preferred to go to bed early and were at their best state in the morning．School performance and problem solving ability，were judged and test grades in the major subjects were also taken into consideration．
Jim Horne，professor of psychophysiology at Loughborough University，said："Evening types tend（倾向） to be the more creative types，the poets，artists and inventors，while the morning types are considered to be civil servants and accountants（会计）．"
55．The researchers from the University of Madrid foundC．
A．morning people will probably find good jobs and earn a lot
B．morning people show higher intelligence from an early age
C．night owls may earn more money than morning people

56．Early risers often do well in exams possibly becauseC．
A．they go to bed by 10p．m．regularly
B．they make full preparations before exam
C．lessons are held at the right time for them
D．they have longer time to prepare for their lessons
57．The research may include questions about the following EXCEPTA．
A．favorite sports                  B．grades in main subjects
C．living habits and body clocks   D．school performance
58．In Jim Horne'opinion，Larks may choose to beDin the future．
A．inventors           B．artists             C．poets       D．civil servants．
