    They say that before long，we will be able to receive more than 500 television networks on cable or by satellite .Some people think that it's ridiculous to have that many channels．Their usual criticism goes something like this：

    “I already get more channels on my TV than I have time to watch．No one needs to see that much TV．There’s not enough time in the day to watch all that!”They also state that most of what’s on television now isn’t worth watching in the first place．

    I think they’re missing the point．If the local library wanted to add another 5,000books,would

 we say“That’s silly,we’ll never have time to read all those books．”?The point is that we would

 have more choices．

     I don’t believe that most people should watch more television And if we had 500 or even 1,000 channels to choose from，we wouldn’t have to spend more time watching the tube．We would．however,have a better selection of programs to choose from．That means that the quality of our viewing time would improve．

    I，for one，say that the more channels we can access，the better,Give me more choices! If they’re not worth my time，I’ll just hit the“off”button．

I strongly believe it’s happy to have a day in the year , when we can toghter talk about the progress women have made over the years , although we still have to deal with many more lifestyle pressures compared to men.

For all the fellow sisters who’ve still not figured out the power of being a woman,it’s high time to realize how easy it is for us to brust into tears in public to get the pressure out ,or cry for emotional reasons, or for no specific reason at all.       Our tears are at least regared as an outlet for emotional stress ,and not as a sign of weakness . Please allow me to say jokingly here——the tears can best be used as a winning tool in an argumentative——your point will have to be heard and agreed upon!

We are socially  acoepted as proud “homemakers”if we choose to live that way . What a relief from the social burden of “earning enough for the family “.

We have the amazing option of wearing make-up. Of course , we are “natural beauties “, but who minds improving those pretty looks ! How easy it is for us to look taller whenever we want to. We can wander in those fashionable dresses and don’t lack choices when it comes to dressing up for parties and weddings .

What an advantage : You can wear his shirts or T-shirts if you want, but poor he can’t even think of feel getting into any of your designer dresses !

You can’t ignore the benefits that may come in your way from men in the name of gentleman’s behavior ! You can feel important every time he opens the car door for you before sitting into the driver/s seat hinself.

If you’re a daddy’s girl , you can comfortably feel most protective . But as to a mamma’s boy , he isn’t easy .

Cheers to the “advantages of womanhood”.

A device that stops drivers from falling asleep at the wheel is about to undergo(接受) testing at Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months.

       The system, called driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20%--40% that are caused by tiredness. Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to tiredness.

       Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband. The device, worn by drivers or pilots gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by pressing the steering wheel. A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the driver’s response.

       Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time. Usually, a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond, but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy.

   In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the driver’s response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible.

       The device has been delivered to the department’s laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months’ time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year.

68. How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert?

       A. By sounding a warning.   B. By touching the wristband.

       C. By checking the driving time. D. By pressing the steering wheel.

69. We can learn from the text that the driver needs to stop for a break when his response time is ________

       A. about 400 milliseconds    B. below 500 milliseconds

       C. over 500 milliseconds      D. about 4 minutes

70. When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert ______.

       A. moves more regularly      B. stops working properly

       C. opens the window for the driver      D. sounds more frequently and loudly

71. According to the text, Driver Alert ______.

       A. aims to reduce tiredness-related accidents

       B. has gone through testing at laboratories

       C. aims to prevent drivers from sleeping

       D. has been on sale for 12 months
