11.This is not a typical summer camp.Michelle Paw law and eight other teenage girls are participating in the three-day camp offered by the Arlington County Fire Department located just outside Washington.Firefighter Clare Burley is in charge of the program,who said the purpose is to try to get young women interested in considering the fire service as a career.
The free-of-charge,overnight camp is designed to let the girls experience what firefighters do to protect the community.That includes some rigorous(严酷的) activities such as moving a fire victim."I didn't think I could pull that 170pound body with a friend,but I was actually able to do it."she said.
They take classes and learn how to climb the ladder on a fire truck,operate emergency tools and rescue an injured person.They also do their share of cleaning the firehouse and the equipment.
"Every week without fail on a Saturday,the job is to wash all the equipment.And we wanted the girls to see this is what we do.This is a typical day in a firehouse,"she said.
Firefighting is still a male-dominated service,but Burley says with 22women on its force of 320the Arlington County Fire Department is above the national average of 4.5percent.She joined the department seven years ago.
"We do everything that the guys do to the same standard.We are tested to the same standard.We are expected to operate at the same standard,"she said.
Most of the girls say they had never thought about becoming a firefighter,but the camp was a great learning experience."I think it is definitely not a job that only men can do.Women can do it just as well as men can,"said Michelle Pawlaw.
21.What's the purpose of the summer camp?D

C.To provide the girls with a typical summer camp
D.To attract more girls to take firefighting as a career.
22.What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A

D.She thinks women can do better than men.
4.It's that time of year when people need to lock their cars.It's not because there are a lot of criminals running around stealing cars.Rather,it's because of good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest.Especially with this year's large crop,leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to fill it with zucchini(西葫芦).
    My sister,Sharon,recently had a good year for tomatoes.She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they had begun to feel their skin turn slightly red.That's when she decided it was time to share her blessings.She started calling everyone she knew.When that failed,she began asking everyone in the neighborhood,eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes."Feel free to take whatever you want,"Sharon told her.Later that day,Sharon found that her garden had indeed been harvested.She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didn't go to waste.
    A few days later,Sharon answered the door.There was the neighbor,holding a hot loaf of bread.The neighbor smiled pleasantly,"I wanted to thank you for all of the tomatoes,and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hoped you wouldn't mind."
    Sharon couldn't think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said so."Oh,but you did,"the neighbor said."You had some of the prettiest zucchini I've ever seen."
    Sharon was confused.They hadn't even planted any zucchini.But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden.Sharon felt curious and decided to go to see where the zucchini had grown.The two of them walked together into the backyard.When the neighbor pointed at the long green vegetables,Sharon smiled."Well,actually,those are cucumbers that we never harvested,because they got too big,soft and bitter for eating."
    The neighbor looked at Sharon,shock written all over her face.She gulped(哽住)a few times,and then,smiling,held out the bread,part of a batch she had shared all over the neighborhood."I brought you a nice loaf of cucumber bread.I hope you like it."

8.Being the youngest child has advantages and disadvantages.On the one hand,babies are spoiled and often get away with behavior that other family members can't.On the other hand,many youngest children feel that they never quite measure up to their more experienced and successful siblings.To borrow a phrase from a famous comedian,they get no respect.
Some parents look on their youngest child as their last chance to do everything right,so the youngest may feel great performance pressure,similar to a firstborn.Other parents will never allow their last child to be unhappy,ever.In most families,however,the parents have more experience and are more likely to give them more freedom on such issues as developmental milestones,toilet training,dating,and so on.They are more confident that things will work out for the best,and their relationship with their lastborn is less intense than that with the older children.
Having some distance in their relationship with their parents can give the lastborn freedom to explore new ideas and new places,but if it is too great,the youngest children may feel disconnected,as though they don't belong to the family.
Since lastborns are seldom the strongest or most capable during childhood,they often carve out a place for themselves by being clever and charming.Within the family,they know how to get along well with their siblings.They may become peacekeepers,but they're also able to cause much trouble when it serves their purposes.Playing the"baby card"also allows them to avoid punishment for wrongdoing,for example,breaking a sibling's toy.
Only with such a full understanding can you,as a parent,help your"baby"develop into a fully grown-up person.

5.What may dissatisfy the youngest child in the family?D
A.Being given too much pressure by the parents.
B.Being looked down upon by the other family members.
C.Not getting along well with their siblings.
D.Feeling that they fail to do as well as their siblings.
6.In most families,the youngest childB.
A.is expected to realize their parents'unfinished dreams
B.lives a life of less pressure from their parents
C.is often ignored and forgotten by their parents
D.doesn't like to get close to his/her parents
7.Which of the following characteristics may NOT appear in the lastborn during their childhood?A
A.Strong-minded.B.Attractive.
C.Sociable.D.Troublesome.
8.By talking about the characteristics of the youngest child,this passageA.
A.gives parents some help in bringing up the youngest child
B.reminds parents to give the youngest child extra care
C.shows it is hard for the youngest child to succeed
D.calls on parents to treat the youngest child fairly.
