Throughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential candidates and how they’ll change America. Rightly so, but selfishly, I’m more fascinated by Michelle Obama and what she might be able to do, not just for this country, but for me as an African-American woman. As the potential First Lady, she would have the world’s attention. And that means that for the first time people will have a chance to get up close and personal with the type of African-American woman they so rarely see.

　　Usually, the lives of black women go largely unexamined. The prevailing theory seems to be that we’re all hot-tempered single mothers who can’t keep a man. Even in the world of make-believe, black women still can’t escape the stereotype of being eye-rolling, oversexed females raised by our never-married, alcoholic (酗酒的) mothers.

　　These images have helped define the way all women are viewed, including Michelle Obama. Before she ever gets the chance to commit to a cause, charity or foundation as First Lady, her most urgent and perhaps most complicated duty may be simple to be herself.

　　It won’t be easy. Because few mainstream publications have done in-depth features on regular African-American women, little is known about who we are, what we think and what we face on a regular basis. For better or worse, Michelle will represent us all.

　　Just as she will have her critics, she will also have millions of fans who usually have little interest in the First Lady. Many African-American blogs have written about what they’d like to see Michelle bring to the White House—mainly showing the world that a black woman can support her man and raise a strong black family. Michelle will have to work to please everyone—an impossible task. But for many African-American women like me, just a little of her poise (沉着), confidence and intelligence will go a long way in changing an image that’s been around for far too long.

　　36. Why does Michelle Obama hold a strong fascination for the author?

　　A) She serves as a role model for African women.

　　B) She possesses many admirable qualities becoming a First Lady.

　　C) She will present to the world a new image of African-American women.

　　D) She will pay closer attention to the interests of African-American women.

　　37. What is the common stereotype of African-American women according to the author?

　　A) They are victims of violence. B) They are of an inferior violence.

　　C) They use quite a lot of body language. D) They live on charity and social welfare.

　　38. What do many African-Americans write about in their blogs?

　　A) Whether Michelle can live up to the high expectations of her fans.

　　B) How Michelle should behave as a public figure.

　　C) How proud they are to have a black woman in the White House.

　　D) What Michelle should do as wife and mother in the White House.

　　39. What does the author say about Michelle Obama as a First Lady?

　　A) However many fans she has, she should remain modest,

　　B) She shouldn’t disappoint the African-American community.

　　C) However hard she tries, she can’t expect to please everybody.

　　D) She will give priority to African-American women’s concerns.

　　40. What do many African-American women hope Michelle Obama will do?

　　A) Help change the prevailing view about black women.

　　B) Help her husband in the task of changing America.

　　C) Outshine previous First Lady.

　　D) Fully display her fine qualities.

President Barack Obama has complained about the loss of privacy that comes with being leader of the United States, regretting the loss of simple pleasures such as a long walk or a trip to the car wash or supermarket．

"I just miss - I miss being anonymous," he said "I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. I can't take a walk． "

His dream, he said, was to "go through Central Park and watch folks passing by．．． spend the day watching people --- I miss that"．

Faced with angry criticism for playing more golf than most previous occupants of the White House, he explained that the sport was simply the best way of getting away from it all． "It's the only excuse I have to get outside for four hours." he told Hearst magazines．

Though he said he enjoyed his life in the White House, he felt disappointed with some of the ways of Washington, which he has failed in his pledge to change, such as the "kabuki dance" （日本歌舞）among political parties before serious policy discussions begin． His comments may be seen as vindication （证实） by critics who have accused him of appearing too detached （漠然）, and being slow to engage in vital issues such as Libya and the near shutdown of the US government last week．

Since arriving at the White House in January 2009, Mr. Obama has already racked up （打）60 rounds of golf in office, more than George W Bush did in his eight years．

To be sure, only children experienced some things differently from those with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children also tend to look more exclusively to their parents as role models.

In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter the myth that they are not responsible. “People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined,” says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get.”

Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain’s David Emerson, coauthor of the book The Only Child, says that such a person bears a terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable(易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it,” he says. “After all, I am left with that responsibility.”

In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasingly the rule, many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unjust.

　　A. critical B. objective C. hostile D. unjust

41. It can be inferred from the passage that only children’s parents should 　　　.

43. It is quite usual now for a working mother to 　　　.

B. be responsible for bringing up her only child

　　C. have and bring up only one child

　　D. devote all her energy to her job
