分析 作者用幽默的口吻介紹了母親這個(gè)職業(yè)的定義,曾經(jīng)母親只是只是一個(gè)家庭主婦,不被認(rèn)為是一種職業(yè),但是作者認(rèn)為母親是人類社會(huì)最需要的工作,她們不用錢(qián)做報(bào)酬,只要滿足感,孩子就是她們的研究對(duì)象,在作者對(duì)一位職員給母親下的定義以后,職員對(duì)作者十分尊敬,讓作者很有高興.

解答 答案 21--25DCADB  26--30ABCBB   31--35ABCDD  36--40ACBDA
21.D.根據(jù)上句的state her oocupation 可知她被要求說(shuō)出職業(yè),而前句Do you have a job可知是問(wèn)她是有工作或是只是一個(gè)家庭主婦,所以答案是D or 譯為"或者".其他選項(xiàng)中and 表示并列關(guān)系;but表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系; so
