Have you ever considered what an important part work plays in our general lifestyle For most of us, our jobs are the main things that motivate and direct us, and around which we organize our lives. Perhaps this stress on work began with our Puritan forebears, who believed that the best way to serve God was through honest hard work, or perhaps our fundamental belief in work stems from a time when this country was young and we needed people who believed in hard work to carry out the arduous business of pioneering. Whatever the reason, it is undeniable that work is important to us. Think about the situation that arises when you meet someone and try to learn more about him or her. An early question is very frequently something such as, "What do you do" or "Where do you work" This kind of question usually follows "What’s your name" and is now so common with us that we do not stop to wonder why we ask it. But, you know, it is very possible that in the future the question will disappear, and we might very well ask instead, "What do you play" Computer and other technological equipment are making jobs more automated and less personally demanding. Scientists tell us that one day in the foreseeable future, very few people will have to work. Our society will be run by computers and we will have a great deal more free time so that our games will become more important than our jobs. At the beginning of this century, almost everybody believes in work. But by the end of this century, we might be thinking quite differently. Today, people are divided into social classes in accordance with the type of work they do; tomorrow, it is more than likely we will be divided according to the type of games we play. This change may give rise to a new race of therapists called "fun specialists," who will fill the same functions as our current career specialists. They will show us how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our leisure time. Someday people will no longer be known primarily by the work they do.What is the main idea of the passage（） A. Work plays an important part in our general lifestyle.B. It is very possible that game will replace work as the most important part in our life.C. People are divided into social classes in accordance with types or work they do.D. Game players know how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our leisure time.

Passage Three There are many ways to learn about people of other lands. One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different parts of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big reasons for this. One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils (面纱) to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man-made materials. Most people in China wear cotton. The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone living in India can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs. Worldwide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim (帽沿) up. In China, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from the sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.In many Moslem countries, women have to______in public.A. wear more clothes than menB. wear veils to hide their facesC. protect their faces from being hurtD. wear beautiful clothing
