The days of elderly women doing nothing but cooking huge meals on holidays are gone. Enter the Red Hat Society －a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun.

“My grandmothers didn’t do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that,” said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.

While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, women have sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as they age. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人), and the same people who refused their parents’ way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.

If you take into consideration feminism(女权主义), a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable(必然的). In this society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple(紫色的) clothes, while the women under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing.

“The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: “When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn’t go,” said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention.

“The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else,” Cooper said. “Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves.” This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. “We’re a ladies’ play group. It couldn’t be more simple,” added Cooper’s assistant Joe Heywood.

1．The underlined word “chapter” in paragraph 2 means __________.

A．one branch of an organization B．a written agreement of a club

C．one part of a collection of poems D．a period in a society’s history

A．have gradually become more noticeable

C．are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spend

D．tried living a different life from their parents when they were young

3．It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are .

A．interested in raising money for social work

B．programmers who can plan well for their future

C．believers in equality between men and women

D．good at cooking big meals and taking care of others

4．Who set up the Red Hat Society ?

A．Emily Cornette . B．Ellen Cooper . C．Jenny Joseph . D．Joe Heywood .

5．Women join the Red Hat Society because .

A．they want to stay young

B．they would like to appear more attractive

下面是一篇杂志文章，请将标有A—F的段落插入文章中标号为1—5的合适位置，使这篇文章意义完整，结构连贯；其中有一个段落是多余的。

Every year more and more plants and animals disappear never to be seen again.

Every day, thousands of species of animals draw closer to extinction. There are countless numbers of species which may become extinct before they are even discovered.

The problem is acid rain. Acid rain. Acid rain is a kind of air pollution.

The rain in many places isn’t natural and clean any more. It’s full of acid chemicals. 4

But dead fish may be just the beginning of the problem. Scientists are finding other effects of acid rain.

Now scientists are also beginning to study the effects of acid rain on larger animals. For example, they believe that some deer in Poland are less healthy because of acid rain. If deer are hurt by the rain, what about people? This is the question many people are beginning to ask. No one knows the answer yet. But it is an important question for us all.

A．Seldom does it rain and there is little fresh water here for the fish. A series of development projects has destroyed the natural environment. Waste of different kinds can be seen here and there. This has caused serious problem for fish and other animals living around.

B．In some large areas trees are dying. Not just one tree here and there, but whole forests. At first scientists coundn’t understand why. There were no bugs（虫） or diseases in these trees. The weather was not dry. But now they think that the rain was the cause. Acid rain is making the earth more acidic in these areas. Some kinds of trees cannot live in the soil that is very acidic.

C．When it falls in lakes, it changes them too. The lakes become more acidic. Acid water is like vinegar or lemon juice. It hurts when it gets in your eyes. It also kills the plants and animals that usually live in lake water. That is why the fish are dying in lakes.

D．It is caused by factories that burn coal or oil or gas. These factories send smoke high into the air. The wind often carries the smoke far from the factories. Some of the harmful substances in the smoke may come down with the rain hundreds of miles away.

E．Strangely, it is the most intelligent but most thoughtless animal that is causing most of the problems-man. Nature is very carefully balanced and if this balance is disturbed, animals can disappear surprisingly fast.

F．In many lakes the fish are dying. Fishermen are worried because every year there are fewer fish and some lakes have no fish at all. Scientists are beginning to get worried too. What is killing

　　Subject: Complaint
　　Dear Mr. Price,
　　I have eaten in your restaurant many times and have always been happy with the food and service. This makes what happened last Saturday even more disappointing.
　　It was my son’s birthday so we booked a non-smoking table at your restaurant for 7:30 p.m. We arrived on time but were told that our table was not yet ready. At 8:00 p.m., we were given a table in the smoking section. I asked to move but I was told that there were no other tables. A lot of people were smoking so it was uncomfortable and unhealthy.
　　Our first waitress, Janet, was very polite and helpful. She gave us free drinks for waiting so long. Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and tasty. When my wife had eaten most of her meal, she found a dead cockroach (蟑螂) in her vegetables. She was shocked and wanted to leave. At first, the waitress told us it was a piece of garlic. When we told her that garlic does not have legs, she apologized and took the food away.
　　We asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal. Nobody came. After 15 minutes, I asked to see the manager. The head waiter told us that you were on holiday I complained again about the horrible cockroach. He told me Janet had finished work. He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for three meals. I argued with him but was forced to pay.
　　The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full repayment for our meal. It cost $68. Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or recommending it to anyone.
　　You can contact me at 742-3254 or through e-mail if you want more information.
　　Thank you for your attention.
　　 Yours Sincerely,
　　 Raymond Yuen
