(2016·皖南八校第三次联考)We are always told that blue is for boys and pink is for girls. But does this rule result from born difference between sexes or are they culturally constructed?
In 1918 a trade magazine for baby clothes companies said although opinions varied on this subject, there was a generally accepted rule—pink for the boy and blue for the girl,because pink being a more decided and stronger color is more suitable for the boy;while blue which is more delicate and elegant is prettier for the girl.
Unluckily,this attempt at setting the rule for sellers and producers clearly did not work. A 1927 chart in Time Magazine contacted department stores in various cities and asked what colors they used for boys and girls. The result was all over the map. It wasn't until after the Second World War that the modern standard started to become popular and even so,it didn't get rooted until the 1980s.
As for why today's strict color standard set in at all, a sociologist at the University of Maryland thinks they are basically the outcome of a marketing technique. If salesmen can convince you of following the standard, you will buy a certain product,which makes sense in promoting its sales. Another historian from the same university argues that the rule we use today may reflect the influence of French fashion. Traditional French culture paired pink with girls and blue with boys and because France set the fashion in the 20th century,their tradition ruled the world.
So do girls prefer pink and boys prefer blue from birth? It depends on whom you ask. The debate about how we got to the point will probably continue. After all, a century ago a magazine firmly declared the opposite rule.

(2015·安徽高考)When her five daughters were young,Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity(团结).To show this,she held up one chopstick,representing one person.Then she easily broke it into two pieces.Next,she tied several chopsticks together,representing a family.She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks.This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However,when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975,they didn't have much money.They moved their family to San Francisco.There they joined Danny's mother,Diana,who owned a small Italian sandwich shop.Soon afterwards,Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant.The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young.However,Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves,but one by one,the daughters returned to work in the family business.They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles.Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked together to make the business successful.Daughter Elizabeth explains,“Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity,and to have unity we must have peace.Without the strength of the family,there is no business.”
Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996,with three generations of Ans working together.Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $20 million each year.Although they began with a small restaurant,they had big dreams,and they worked together.Now they are a big success.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。在孩子们很小的时候,Helene An就教她们团结就是力量。孩子们大学毕业后,最终回到了家族生意中,她们的团结让她们的生意越做越大。
5.Helene tied several chopsticks together to show .
A.the strength of family unity
B.the difficulty of growing up
C.the advantage of chopsticks
D.the best way of giving a lesson
【解析】 推理判断题。由文章的第一句...Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity.可知,Helene总是告诉她们团结就是力量。她用几双筷子捆起来难以折断这个事例来说明家庭团结的力量,故选A项,而不是B项(长大的困难)、C项(筷子的优势)和D项(给出教训的最好方式)。
【答案】 A
6.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family .
A.started a business in 1975

【解析】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中的However,when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975,they didn't have much money.可知,An一家离开越南的时候,并没有多少钱,故选B项。1975年他们刚离开越南,文中并没有提到这一年他们开始做生意,故可以排除A项。他们搬到旧金山后,加入了Diana的三明治店,没有买一个餐馆,排除C项。第二段中未提及D项。
【答案】 B
7.What can we infer about the An daughters?
A.They did not finish their college education.

【解析】 推理判断题。由第三段的Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity,and to have unity we must have peace.可知,孩子们受母亲的影响,知道团结的力量,故C项正确。由第三段首句Eventually the girls all graduated from college...returned to work in the family business.可排除A、B两项,再由第三段第三句Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other,they worked together to make the business successful.可排除D项。
【答案】 C
8.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
